Your former primary care doctor no longer takes your insurance, and your new primary won't refer unless you have a physical first? Are you due for a physical? That wouldn't make me very happy, either.
My ortho guy is very good. Shame you live so far away!
I was starting to get really stressed out over who was going to take care of Princess for me on Friday. My friend who has been helping me hadn't returned my calls, and my other friend who was going to watch her has a TON of stuff going on this week and I was afraid she was going to back out.

Luckily I talked with my friend who has watched Princess before and she committed to cover for me on Friday. Yay!

She had been waiting to see how some other aspects of her schedule shaped up. This is good. She knows Princess, Princess is comfortable with her, she knows the house and so forth so I just need to leave the key and the car seat for her when I go home Thursday.
