Good morning friends. Once again slept well and ever so grateful.
Another sunny and cold day on tap. I'm loving this weather...nothing that a heavy sweater or down jacket can't 'fix'  Also loving my manicure/pedicure color.
Today we need to pick up heart worm and flea/tick Rx for Benjamin. While in that neckadawoods....will stop at the Dollar Tree. Ya never know what you'll find in there.
Then it's home.
Tonight we shall finish of the rest of the chicken soup and have a sandwich with it. I have some nice fresh French bread which we both love.
Waving and shall CBL.....
Maybe today will be the day that I hear RESULTS!!!!!!!

Back from a hood walk. Benjamin was willing to wear his new coat and performed well in it. Mom and dad were quite pleased. I decided to sit this shopping trip out. When Carl mentioned that he'd like to stop at Hobby Lobby to 'browse around' that did it for me. He will walk around there looking at all the crafty stuff they have and me?  I don't have a crafty bone in my body LOL...so I decided to stay put. Besides, I have that lovely bone density test to endure tomorrow. I am not fond of that table and test as it brings me back to all the radiation therapy sessions I endured. So I figure I will treat myself to a day of reading and relaxing today. I got all blood work results mailed to me from my PCP....all but the one that I am most concerned with. In a bit I shall make a call to see if they have come in. Tootles and shall try to pop in later. |

Hi all!
I'm happy because I finally found my toaster! It's the little things that make us happy. I hauled up a couple boxes earlier this AM for more kitchen stuff and it was in the bottom of a large box covered by a lot of stuff not related to it at all. That's how they packed us. I can find everything I packed. I am picking away at boxes when I can but saving most for after the holidays. I want to have a few things ready for Thanksgiving and that's it. Then we go away for Christmas and then we can go about the true unpacking and organizing. My goal is to have it done by the end of April. It's ambitious given the amount of stuff but at least it's a timeframe. Otherwise, I fear I could be like your friend, Sue. Years out... I am channeling the Ann Plan for tossing more stuff. :-) No more duplicates and triplicates, etc. Not sure why I need three crockpots, for example. Someone can use one of them. I'll keep one big and one small.
The dogs and I had a nice walk this morning. It is nippy out but I wore my down jacket.
I am feeling very tired again - work is getting busier and this move has taken it out of me. Two houses cleared - one demolished, one built, a hotel life for a month, and now getting settled. It really is a full time job. I get overwhelmed and stressed so need to take a few minutes. I wish I had about a month to get more settled before the kids and families descend on us, but I am not complaining. I love having them an we will "make do" as our parents all said! The main thing is to be together.
TTFN.. Ann I hope you get news soon! Sheesh...they really made you wait!

Judy I hear you.....and yes it WILL all fall together. Nothing quite like surrounding yourselves with a nice warm blanket of love...especially for the holidays. LOL to 3 crock pots. At one time I had 4...seeing as I purchased a small and large IP I now only have the smaller crock pot and I won't give that one up. For instance it is now holding the rest of our homemade chicken soup to enjoy for supper LOL. Yes we are all about those little things. I placed a call into my PCP with phone number and so far nada. Oh well....I won't call again today, but will call either tomorrow when back from the bone density test of by Friday at the latest! Why it takes so long is beyond me...and it's getting OLD blaming all on COVID 19! Sorry for the vent. Carl just came home and scored more cans of Hunts Fire Roasted tomatoes and at a fantastic price...they were on sale at Market Basket 1.50 for 2 cans...they had 4 regular flavor and he took all of them. I am slowly building up my 'stash' I had to laugh at the 'Ann Plan' as when I took my 'test' on the weight watchers site they refer to my 'choices' as the Ann Plan. I wanted to say I've been doing the Ann Plan with a little weight watchers thrown in for decades...so far so good. |

Just got off the phone with the NP from my PCP's office. No results are in yet. She suggested that I give it a few more days and call again. I shall do that and in the meantime TRY to put it out of my mind! Easier said than done....
Apologizing for sounding like a broken record!

Ann,
I get it! You have been patiently waiting for test results for what seems like ages. It's awful that they make you wait. Hang in and relax tonight since it is truly out of your hands. :-) Thank you for the encouragement today. I'm pooped. And, I need to drive back to Worcester tomorrow. Once I am there, I am okay, but it is hard.

P.S. I didn't know they made smaller IPs, too!
