Surprise Visit From The Princess And Chewlee.....

I was at my computer when I suddenly hear *Hi Grandma!* from behind me.  It was my darling Chewlee, here with the Princess.  When I asked her why she was here, she told me that they were bringing me some medicine.  That was a puzzle since I knew they didn't have any of our medications at their house.

It turned out that the Princess brought us some Theraflu after reading my blog and thinking about the upcoming flu season.  She had gotten them CHEAP she said.  In truth, besides dropping that off, they were on their way to Chewlee's cheerleading practice.  But it was nice to see them both and the Theraflu was a welcome addition to our medicine chest.  I'll bet that I will be the only one to use it, though.  LOL!  The Beast always has to *tough* things out.

But it reminded me that I should go get my flu shot.  Either at the doctor's office or at one of the various pharmacies that offer it.  I sure as hell don't want to go through what I did three years ago.

Mustachio had a  tough physical therapy session today.  It was his assessment before he went back to work.  He actually had to pass it or he wouldn't have been able to.  Pass it he did and now he is looking forward to starting work a week from Monday.  I think that is the 8th.  He already talked to his boss after the session so they will get a truck ready for him to stock.  He is so anxious to start working again although he knows he will have a tough time to begin with.  He's been a couch potato for 8 months and has lost a lot of muscle.  Just being able to handle the 20 ft. ladder will be a real chore but his spirit is willing.  He said he will be like a *newbie* going back to work after such a long time.  But he has the skill....he just needs time to regain what he's lost in muscle mass and strength.  I wish him luck and not too much pain.

I really miss my sister, Cee.  I was thinking about all the times we got together for a day of shopping and lunch.  It was always fun.  We did it once a week.  I don't have anyone I can do that with here.  I will truly enjoy it if she does move up here next year.  All I can do is hope it's possible.

It's been really cold out at night and it doesn't look like that is going to change.  The day time temperatures have been nice, however.  I sometimes take Baron outside and let him roll around in the grass and then lay on the driveway while I just sit outside and enjoy the weather.  

The Beast has to go to the doctor's office tomorrow to find out about the new policy for getting bloodwork done.  He has to have some done before he can get one of his prescriptions renewed.  I haven't had any luck getting through to the doctor's office at all so he's going to just stop over and make an inquiry about it.  He may have to have an appointment now.  It used to be that anyone who had bloodwork orders in their file could stop in and be taken care of.  But I guess the practice has just gotten too big now.  

Love you all.  I hope you have a fantastic Friday.  The end of the work week for most people and some decent weather for most areas of the country.  Have a great weekend.  Try to do something outdoors.  We may not have many more weekends where we can.  ****Hugs****
