Getting Back Into Juggling Shape!

We’ve been so busy moving that I’ve laid off juggling for a while. I’m sore in every muscle!

We’ve moved into a hotel for a couple of months while our new house is being built. I’ll get back into juggling shape soon!

Must Read Post on Real Psychiatry15 Mar 2026
I have a big shout out to Dr. George Dawson, MD for his post on his blog Real Psychiatry about the trolling of psychiatrists on social media. I tried adding links to social media from my blog for a short while and dropped it years ago.
Ivermectin Bill Looks Like It’s Dead-For Now14 Mar 2026
This is a quick followup on the progress of Governor Reynolds MAHA bill which included a piece endorsing making Ivermectin available over-the-counter in Iowa. I just read a story about what looks like the disappearance of the ivermectin from Reynold’s bill. The story, written by Laura Belin, comes from a webpage called Bleeding Heartland: An … Continue reading "Ivermectin Bill Looks Like It’s Dead-For Now"
OK, Why is Nobody Talking About Friday the 13th Today?13 Mar 2026
Nobody but me, I guess, is talking out loud about Friday the 13th today. I don’t remember anybody mentioning it last month when it occurred either. And it’s going to happen again this year in November. That’ll make 3 times Friday the 13th happens in a single year. And tomorrow’s Svengoolie movie is “Friday the … Continue reading "OK, Why is Nobody Talking About Friday the 13th Today?"
Rash of Bigfoot Sightings in Ohio, So What About Iowa?12 Mar 2026

There’s an organization called Bigfoot Society that is tracking the story. The … Continue reading "Rash of Bigfoot Sightings in Ohio, So What About Iowa?"

Thoughts on House Finches10 Mar 2026
This morning, I got a snapshot of a male house finch sitting on the back porch fence post. He’s a proud looking fellow. I saw the female a minute earlier but could not catch a picture of her. It’s spring; they’re probably a mating pair and we saw them last year. So, there will soon … Continue reading "Thoughts on House Finches"

Plan for retirement, even if you don’t plan to retire. This means sound financial planning, developing other interests, and nurturing your relationships with significant others. Retire, even if you are not retired. Take enough time off periodically, and completely, with no connections to work, so that you can feel emotionally free from concerns about patients and practice. Of course, there is no reason to retire if you really love your work and relationships just as they are.-H. Steven Moffic, MD See original article in Psychiatric Times
