I guess I've had a little bit of ta-das to report --
* Changed sheets -- well, still in process --
* Went to bank for dmom, deposited rent check, ordered new checks
* Took dmom to doctor (check-up with surgeon) HOORAY -- he has released her, saying, "Everything sounds fine, if you need me you know where I am."
* Went to drug store, got Rx they left out yesterday and print out of expenses for tax man
* Home... read the paper...
* talked to Dcousin -- wanted to make sure none of her bunch was playing ball tonight, before I asked daunt to go to dgd's game -- daunt told me to let her know when DGD played at their school, but I know daunt could possibly get mixed up about whether she had obligated herself to go to one of her own great-grands' games. I will call daunt in a little while -- I'm supposed to pick up DS/family in an hour.
* answered some texts from dfriends who wanted to know time for my procedure tomorrow -- I had put a prayer request out to closest friends and family on FB, had another friend offer to go with me. (Even though that makes me nervous, it's really nice that they care enough.)
It means a lot that you ladies are thinking of me, too. I know it's probably silly of me to get so worked up about all this, but when a medical professional says the words, "very painful" and "biopsy" in the same sentence... sheesh... not to mention it is in an extremely awkward place to get to anyway... I have a horror and a phobia about being in that position anyway! Once they put that speculum in, it always crosses my mind that WHAT would I do if they walked out and left me there? HOW would one remove that thing if left to her own devices? Gynecological equipment is another name for torture devices anyway. I wish they would just put me to sleep.
Harriet, you have such a way with words --
very pleased thoughts, because you are finding out, getting info, making sure of paths. It won't be a delightful experience, but it will get you to the next point with knowledge and sensible help from the pros.
No, I am not expecting a delightful experience... but maybe I can go to Chick-Fil-A afterwards.
LadyM, if my ddil didn't know me so well, she would describe me as a social butterfly. I always want to talk to everyone at gatherings like that, too. Like my ddad, I've been known to stop at a table in a restaurant and have a conversation. However, planning a trip like you are considering with friends... nope... that's when I kick in to hermit mode.
That is very interesting that you have two friends with this foot problem too! Apparently dmom's feet aren't as unusual as I thought. I am just thankful that so far, I have shown no signs of inheriting this particular trait.
We are also expecting a return of cold weather next weekend also. Today it was around 50 degrees. I need to turn off the dripping faucet, I guess. There is still snow on the ground in lots of places -- I've always heard if it lays three days, there will be another within 7-10 days.

blessed))) I'm so sorry you're feeling down. You've had a lot to deal with lately. Maybe you need a night to retire to your bed early with a snack and a good book or magazine.

Twins))) That HOA business sounds like a huge pain in the you-know-what!
Waving to you all! Hope you have a good evening.
