My adventures getting routine bloodwork and medication refills in Ottawa

My crazy adventures just need to be documented with random pictures of Ottawa sometimes. I have hypothyroidism so I routinely get blood work done at least once a year sometimes every six months to ensure I have the right dose of medication. This has been the most interesting session I have ever had. I’m currently waiting for someone to fax my requisition because they lost it.  Let’s go back.

Excel Naturally Sweetened Gum

I received some free samples from home testers club this is the review I posted on their site. This gum is like the old wrigley's it comes in a long stick and is individually foil wrapped.

Overall I liked this gum I am a gum addict and don't like to eat chemicals but for some reason I chew chemically sweetened gum I am for improvements in the naturally sweetened gum area.
