I took some time off for the holidays. I decided to come back to work today so I could clean up some emails and projects before the end of the year. It should relieve some of the stress in 2022 not having this unfinished business, but there is one problem. Some of the people I need to clean up this mess are out of the office. At least I can push it their direction as they did to me before they left on holiday earlier in the week. It's a game of "not me" where there are no winners unfortunately. I resolve not to let this bother me and calmly move forward.
One bright spot, Congress passed a piece of legislation that included a directive to CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) to delay its implementation of the RO (Radiation Oncology) Model until no earlier than 1/1/2023. While this probably means nothing to the average reader, for me it means a lot of work that needed to be done today is now delayed. It looks like we may implement some of the changes anyway, but not until May at the earliest. What it is basically is a new "simplified and predictable payment system" for cancer treatment. What it really is.... a pain in the neck need to document everything thing so we get paid according to Hoyle*. When, I ask you, has anything done by the Congress been simple? The concern is never really about patient care but about money and how "to" or "not to" get it.
Tonight we are going to see a Cirque style open air cabaret. What you might ask is that? Well it is an acrobatic/erotic show setup in the parking lot behind Hunter's night club in downtown Palm Springs. I am guessing a low budget "O" or something of the sort. It should be fun, but it is cold outside. Cold is a relative term as it will be 54 degrees at showtime.

After the new year, we are having the neighbors over for cocktails. After 6 months it is a long over due occasion. In the mean time we need to get all the Christmas crap er ah decorations put away and dust. Not sure how many neighbors. At least one maybe two are expected. The nice lady at the end of our building and the nice man who jogs by every day and leaves lemons on the mailbox. Hey, it's a start. Reaching out to strangers is not easy when you move to a new place. These two reached out to us an it seem only proper to invite them in and see where it goes from there.
I don't know what these are but they look pretty.
