I felt slightly heroic yesterday.
Yes, go ahead and laugh.
I am. The shot went well though I
was slightly unnerved by the repeated question, “Do you have an epi pen at
home?” No itchies….or little. No pain, no swelling. No epi pen tho I probably should have one
with all my allergies.
So I moved on to picking up G’s shirts at the cleaners. On to taking G’s favorite shoes to the shoe
repair shop. That sort of thing. If you know me at all, you know I am the
least domestic person around. The dishes
got done, dinner got planned, and all the little things that make a home work,
fell into place.
Today I shuffle books.
Tomorrow is the mammogram day, and I do have years of past Xrays on a
disk to take with me.
In the rain.
I am doubly glad that I moved my mammogram to a more accessible
clinic since I dislike driving in the rain.
There’s rain today too turning our streets into glass and the
uninitiated into accidents waiting to happen.
News tonight will be interesting.
Life is Really in the
Footnotes:
I'm being very domestic today, also. Cleaned the floors for the first time in months. Dusted yesterday. I probably hate this stuff even more than you. Since I live alone I can keep my eyes closed. I have visitors coming today. It's a good thing, once or twice a year.
ReplyDeleteAs perhaps you know, I have been getting regular mammograms for the past ten years (almost). At this point in time, all of my history, including the mammograms, are computerized and accessible by my doctors. No more carrying media for me.
ReplyDeleteI am pleased with this technology, as my son -- in another state -- is the database administrator for a similar program. (His program serves a consortium of hospitals.)
I have never had a flu shot and seem to have fared well. Good luck with your mammogram.
ReplyDeleteTake care driving and thanks for the reminder about "Shield."
ReplyDeleteYes, driving in the rain here is a challenge. I feel so accomplished since I learned to drive in the snow.
ReplyDeleteDid a detailed makeover of my large walk-in closet. When I say large...you can put a bed in it! So that was work as it as much a storage closet as a clothes closet. Then spent days with old friends who are visiting. Today I have scheduled a nap!
ReplyDeleteInspiring day. I must do this soon. Staples out on Friday. Good to get back to semi-normal.
ReplyDeleteI smiled at your description of yourself as "the least domestic person" From reading you, I consider you very domestic, as your home always looks so beautiful in photos you show.
ReplyDeleteI'm not naturally domestic but have bouts. I'm having one right now, as relatives who've not before been here are coming to lunch next Wednesday. Dirty windows, here I come! They'll be sparkling by next week - I hope!
