Boss just texted me. My trip to Mexico Thursday cancelled.
I was kinda concerned. Mexico is kinda in a panic with COVID cases and I’m worried about leaving the house much less going down there for 2 weeks.

Ben: Careful about the Senoritas. When I was a drug salesman in the Rio Grande Valley, there was a medical clinic in McAllen that specialized in child births. Many latin mothers could not afford to go to the hospital and would use this clinic as a less expensive choice. So they had a lot larger staff of nurses, RN's and LVNs.

I did not know about this until years later. Pas, the head RN told me years later that one of the young nurses had told her co-workers she had dreamed she was married to me. So, as a precaution and preventative of any dangerous Liaison they would always send her off to a remote area to fold linens, or something anytime I came calling. I suppose it was "Bob Alert" Bob Alert" anytime I arrive to call on the doctor. I had no idea, but it was funny later. Just Sayin....RJS
