POTUS Has to Be So Frustrated This Week!
By Daddy
Las Vegas — Poor Donald he just can't catch a break this week. In three days he has three rulings slap him in the face. First the Supreme Court says he can't discriminate against LBTQ workers; A federal court has ruled that he must recognize that US Citizen born in Candada; and Finally the Supreme Court Friday rules that the Obamam era Deferred Action For Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is constitutional. He took the first one fairly well; it went down hill from there.
I'm running late today because most of my day was taken up by Transcutaneous Oxygen (TcPO2) test in the Wound clinic. That involved laying flat on my back for two hours with electrodes in my, upper calf, next to the wound, and between my big toe and the next. Leg Down, Leg Up, Leg Down, and finally with a oxygen mask. I don't get "Official" results until Monday, but it appears that the doctor going to be frustrated once again. The good news is that I'd do well with hyperbaric chamber treatment.
I feel like I was rode hard and put away wet this week; So I plan to take a 3 day weekend and catch up on my sleep.

By Neal Broverman
