What a week!

Actually, it wasn't that bad.

We have lots of things to look forward to and it could always be worse. They keep telling me that. I shall believe them.

Give this extended episode a listen and know that I appreciate you all. 

Sending appropriate hugs, with your consent only, of course.

mare out.

Hey Gang! 

I hope you enjoy my latest rant about a few funny things that flittered through my brain and also a quick version of an unexpectedly shitty doctor visit. I am fine! All is well with your girl. I had to go for a follow up mammogram and ultrasound which revealed that I am fine. But the Care Industry needs a better screening process for intake nurses, and better education for nurses who call patients with results. Let the doctor do it if you don't know what you're talking about. Also, fuck Intercoastal Medical Group and their new policy of letting patients know that if they are there for an annual exam, don't ask any questions outside that scope or you will be charged a co-pay. I have no problem paying the co-pay, I have a problem being told that my wellness exam will be limited and I am not being told what those limits are. We all have questions when we go to the doctor, taking part in your health care is one of the most important things you can do in your life. I believe in a holistic approach to health, treat the entire body and brain and psyche and soul. I will have questions, and my previous primary care physician was wonderful and caring and full of answers. I don't know if my new doctor is cool because I only saw her once last year and she was a little weirded out about relocating to Florida and she let me know she is kinda lonely. I shouldn't know that! Pull it together Sister, this is about me. Anyhue, I am now looking for a new doctor who's ready to support me in my quest to get healthier. But it won't be anyone associated with IMG. I will admit that my Physicians Assistant was great, but she is not the one making the policies, that's in the hand of the man who owns and runs the business, and he is a piece of shit.

Have a listen and let me know what you think.

Mare out. :)

A brand new episode, fresh out of the closet!

This week I rant about the Olympics, podcasting madness and the Sunday paper.

Grab a hot cup of Joe and settle in for a fun ride through my mind.

Hey Mare, how's the home renovation going? Whatcha got going on? 

Mary L's suggestion for this week - the topic of hibernation!!

Grieving. Don't half-ass it. Process it fully.

And a special announcement! ooooh!

Trigger Warning: I discuss the topic of suicide in this episode for the final 4 1/2 minutes, beginning at the 11:22 mark. 

If this topic is something you wish to avoid, please stop listening at 11:22. 

Thanks!

This week I delve into disgusting habits old people have, minimalism and books I should read. 

Not everybody loves award shows, but I'm not everybody! I love 'em! Happy Awards Season! I also want to wish you a very Happy National Bagel Day, and let's discuss books. Kate Beckinsale did not get a nomination for her performance in Jolt yet, but it's early. Fingers crossed.

My family came down from NYC and we went to Universal Studios!

I took a home covid test. drumroll......

I am still talking about SAG-AFTRA!

In my first episode, I give you a little idea of who I am and what this will be. 

Clear as mud.

Dear Listener,

And away we go!

Let's talk about some stuff.
