I had a breakfast invitation today from Barb but I had to turn her down. I used the excuse of a CT scan but the reality is I just didn’t feel up to it. I started the morning walk but turned around halfway and managed the amazing mileage of 0.3 miles. My legs felt weak and I didn’t feel well.
Either the CT scan or the echocardiogram (or both) says not to have any caffeine 5 hours before the test. Since I can’t remember, there’ll be two days without my morning coffee. Grumpy just got grumpier.
The other big excitement this morning was balancing my checking account. I was off by $0.11. Instead of hunting for the error, I just did a reconciliation.
My neighbor is mowing my yard this morning. I really appreciate him doing this. I gave up that activity several years ago and don’t miss it one whit.
Next week is busy with a visit with my endocrinologist, my echocardiogram and a follow us with my cancer surgeon. Might as well get it all done in one week, huh?
No word on Tanis today. I did talk to Archie last night. He seems to be holding up OK but is terribly worried about Tanis. He told me he visited her yesterday (maybe he did) and she didn’t look well. I told him Billy said she had her eyes open and was responding to stimuli on the right side. He was relieved. Apparently, he visited early and she started to open her eyes after he left.
My thoughts are still with Chris and Judith. Their son had a devastating skiing accident in Utah. He’s currently in Atlanta where they have an excellent neurology department.
Life just keeps happening – for the better and for the worse.
Stay tuned!
