All Day Western Movie Marathon

John is feeling a little pooky today. Good thing for the old Westerns. A new old one is now starting. Oh no...it is Jeremiah Johnson. We watched it last night. Now he has to try to find some other thing to watch.

We walked over to the clinic this morning for an extra blood draw. John's creatinine levels have gone up. High creatinine levels show that something has made his kidneys unhappy. They pulled a couple of drugs. One or both of them may be the culprit. I hope that today the results are better. Sometimes it takes a few days for the levels to drop.

Yesterday afternoon we went out for a drive after we went to the post office. The post office is up in the Capitol Hill area. The area where the post office is seems a little rough and sad. There are many homeless people in the city and lots of people struggling with substance abuse. We decided to go for a drive up into the Queen Anne area. We wanted to see what the big building up on the hill that is lit up at night was. We found that it used to be a high school that has now been converted into condos. Now we know and won't be standing on the roof garden at night and wondering: "What do you thing that big building is?" We will just have to find another building to wonder about. I do have my eye on another one. The Queen Anne area is upscale. There is a mixture of very modern homes and old Victorian style homes. Most of them are very large and have a spectacular view of Lake Union. The shopping district is a quaint combination of Victorian buildings and some more modern shops. It manages to loose the big city feel. I think we will go back there and explore some more. The big city makes me feel somewhat claustrophobic. It is nice to get away from that.
