(It’s been a long week…)
As I said, I woke up, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed on
Friday. I had a cup of coffee and some peanut butter toast for breakfast. I
stopped in at the Saint Mary’s off-site laboratory (Farmington and Oaklawn)
where I used to get blood drawn when my doctor was in Richmond. They open at
7:00 a.m. and there’s usually nobody there, except the nurse. There wasn’t today, so I got the
blood work done that Tri-County asked for.
Sidebar: I missed doing it on Monday and the rest of the week
sucked!
I still got to work a half hour early.
Vicky made it in today. She looked dead tired, but said
Yanessa is doing better, up, playing and talking her head off. She said Yanessa’s breathing still sounds weird, but the antibiotics seem to be
working. Poor little kid! Her Abuela
(Grandmother) is watching her today.
It’s been over a week since my procedures, so today I can
have roughage again. I went to the Newburgh Grill and got a cup of clam chowder
(so-so, but I knew that going in – ain’t nobody beats my clam chowder) and a
Mini-Greek salad. Believe me when I tell you, I enjoyed the hell out of every
beet, red onion, pepperoncini, Kalamata olive, lettuce and feta cheese in that
roughage salad!!!
From there, I went and got the truck washed again.
Back at work, I spent the afternoon working and being amazed
at how good I felt.
Back home, I got a letter from Tri-County, letting me know
all (ALL) the polyps they collected from top and bottom were benign. I
suspected as much, but whew!
I spent a while making up my Saturday grocery shopping list.
It’s not small, but I have things I need, things I want and things to snack on
for the 50th Super Bowl.
Sidebar: I am NOT a big football fan (give me hockey any
day) but I plan on watching. I probably told you this already, but I actually
watched the first Super Bowl. Fran and I were visiting some friends at the time
and Chuck turned it on. I have no idea who was playing, but we watched it while
we chatted. So, I thought, maybe I should watch this one. I don’t care who
wins, but it’s the commercials and the half-time show that are interesting…
Then I did the ToDo list: Depressing!
For dinner, I ate the bean and ham soup my friend Michelle
M. brought me in on Monday (roughage I couldn’t eat) and then the rest of the
chicken fried rice.
I watched a show on Druids on the National Geographic channel and went
to bed at 10:00 p.m.
