Another First
I didn’t think I had anymore ”firsts” to experience, but I was wrong. Tuesday, on my way to pick up Belle at daycare, I was involved in an accident and I was driving. Because I was changing lanes, the law states that I am at fault. However, I’m not sure that’s correct. I’ve noticed here […]
Another Endless Summer
Tim and Emmet arrived Monday. They had some car and weather issues to deal with on their trip but arrived safe and sound. Tim and Alexandra enjoyed their visit together in D.C. and spent time with Emmet visiting several of the monuments. Fortunately, the rental car could be returned at the Aventura Mall which is […]
I Thought It Was Friday!
What does that tell you? 😂 I had another surprise visit from (Uncle) Frank. I was beginning to think he had forgotten about me. I really believe that his visits are his way of letting me know he is watching out for me and knows what is happening here. It gives me comfort knowing that. […]
A Week Later
It’s hard to believe we’ve been here over a week. It flew by! I visited the dermatologist. He checked my scalp and after 8 treatments, it seems to be cured. However, he did do another treatment (#3) on my nose. I also started acupuncture again. A few days before we left for Florida, I injured […]
Happy New Year
To begin, I finally had the nuclear stress test. Never knew it existed. The difference between this stress test and the regular test is that you are given some radioactive material IV and pictures are taken of it traveling through the heart. My appointment was for 8:45 am. I left at 12:45. Most of the […]
Frustrating Week
I had the vascular test on my legs, Monday. It was quite an experience. The technician applied 2 blood pressure cuffs on each thigh, 1 on each calf, 1 on each ankle, 1 on each foot and I’m not sure what it was but, she attached something to my toes. She also applied a cuff […]
Busy But Quiet
With shopping done, I was able to get Christmas cards written out and mailed. I’m finally getting into the Christmas spirit. Going through the boxes of Christmas decorations, I was shocked at how much I can’t use this year. But, once I get the upstairs loft settled, I’ll have more space. I saw the cardiologist […]
What Else Can Happen?
May as well get the bad news for me over first. Monday, I had a carotid ultrasound done and a cardio echo gram. The results were not at all what I expected. I have a moderate blockage in both the left and right carotid. I’ve never had a high cholesterol reading. The first thing I […]
Good News, Bad News
After our visit to the ER vet on Sunday, Belle seemed much better and had a good Monday. However, I was up 4 times with her over Monday night with diarrhea. When I saw blood, I decided it was time to return to the vet. After examining her and doing blood work, the doctor could […]
Home Again, Home Again
Jiggety jig!! Of course, we had to arrive at the beginning of a cold spell! I am freezing! We had an uneventful trip which is always good. Belle slept the whole way. But, when arrived in the terminal, everyone knew we were there. Her little head was popping out of her carrier and she let […]
