Visit with mom and dad

I made plans to take a longer than normal MLK weekend and go see the folks!  

Pretty moon over the mountain one evening when we were driving out to get salads for dinner ;). I do miss these mountains! (NOT the snow!)

What did we do?  We ate and ate and slept and played games and ate some more. Remember last post when I said I had gotten fat?  Now we know why!!

I did shave Dad while I was there - had fun pulling faces at each other! Mom had fun playing camera man.   

I also took mom shopping with very little success. She found this shirt. Yep. That’s it. One shirt. 

Robert and Janet also came down so we visited and chatted in the evening and spent time talking and enjoying our down time. 

I had a good time spending most of the day with the folks and plan to come down about every three to four months. 

Look at that sky from the drive down to Vegas in the early morning!  So pretty!!

Leaving Vegas

The ONLY hiccup in the flight was me losing my keys to my car. Yep. Seriously. I need to stop losing things!!!  Oh well it’s only keys. I can get them replaced ($300 - dang programmed and electronic things in cars are expensive now!!)

Scanziety.

Ok I have had a flurry of medical appointments but without results and just meetings. First was the regular doc who took blood for a prescription refill and wigged out because my sugar was high. Well I didn’t fast. I wasn’t planning on blood work as I was JUST there for a script refill, thanks. I’m sure that’s fine. We shall see they will take my A1C on the next draw to see where I am. 

Next was oncology to tell them I have not had a scan in YEARS and I have changes. So I had scans ordered. This is a worry and a relief at the same time. Next up is gastroenterologist on the 20th (Thursday) to schedule my colonoscopy. Ah the gift that keeps on giving. 

So one way or another we find out what’s going on. The Amount of accidents I have had lately compared to the last three years is concerning but maybe it’s just because I got fat!  Time will tell. Time will tell. 

Covid booster

I decided to get my booster when Butch took his mom to Florida. I had the afternoon free shipping why not, right?  Oh and I knew I needed (should get) the flu shot so I asked if I could/should get them both. The nurse said “sure”. 

Yeah. NO. Don’t do that ever!!!!  I was not feeling well that evening. I had a low grade fever and felt yuckie. The good news is that it only lasted 24 hours and I was back at it. However I would recommend you get those shots separately for sure!!
