Done with Dad Dr appointments for a while, unless I talk to the retina specialist and they might do actual treatments

 I looked up on google while waiting on the regular doc and there are some treatments for diabetic retinopathy.  I don't *think* dad would want to get injections in his eyes but I can ask if he would if they would recommend that.    We were supposed to go there yesterday but dad said he would cancel.  Of course that meant I had to call and cancel.    I'm fairly sure they were only monitoring before, I think I would have had to drive if Dad had been getting injections in his eye(s) back when he was still going to them periodically and managing all his doctor visits and so on himself. 

I booked a dental visit for myself on Apr 20th,  have horse dentist on Apr 12 and shoer on Apr 13.  Called a trailer place and they said I could just bring the trailer in for an inspection, don't need to make an appointment.  So I will try to do that this Monday when sis is hopefully here.   I keep thinking B is going to be overwhelmed and she will have to go to his dad's for at least a couple days but we shall see.   I need to call my chiropractor, apologize for spacing the appointment a couple months ago and get back on schedule, my back was whinging at me last night without doing anything that should have strained it.   The forecast for tomorrow and next saturday is not very nice so I decided I will wait to start having someone come every saturday until April 1st.   I need to stop punting on that, even if I don't go trailer out to ride it will be nice to have someone cleaning while I run to town to shop and then do outside stuff at home and its probably good for dad to interact with someone besides me regularly.   I don't want to start another pity party but I wish I didn't feel like the folks I rode with often in 2020 and 2021 don't want me around anymore.  Oh well, things will shake out eventually.
