I probably had my best night's sleep last night. It's the reason I didn't post. I also felt so good today that I just kind of wallowed in the feeling. I finished folding my freshly washed clothes (the ones from the past week) and put them away. I found all the mates to my socks and got them put away. It has been a great day thus far.
The Beast made what is probably the best sloppy joes he's ever made. He finally got the AC unit from the bedroom put away in the cottage and gathered the eggs from the chickens. I have been really bad and spent the day in my pajamas (blush). I think it's something everyone needs to do on occasion. On one hand, I feel guilty but, yet, I don't. I DO regret not putting up a blog for yesterday but....I still haven't gotten a date from either the doctor's office or the hospital for my carotid surgery. I'm calling tomorrow if I still haven't heard from anyone.
Cee and I spent most of the afternoon together after I finally got out of the doctor's office. Yesterday was the longest time I ever spent in the office waiting to see my doctor. However, he takes the time to talk to his patients, listen to them and answer any questions they have. Since it's what I love about him, I have to allow the extra time because I am not his only patient. I want to be treated that way so I waited and never lost patience.
The interesting thing is that Cee's insurance group has changed around doctor's so she had to pick a new one starting in January. She was really happy about it in one way. Her old one kept referring her to doctor's in Huntsville (and there were local doctors on the plan). She has known she needs her carotids cleared for a few years but she has put it off. I discovered that MY arterial doctor is on her list so now she says she feels much better about the idea of having it done. She's knows about some of the great work he's done from things I've told her plus how well he's done on me.
We talked about family recipes and food we grew up loving. We still make it the same way...well, almost. We have made some small changes, here and there, to make it completely to our tastes. Our kids now make them the way WE made them. LOL!
Baron is now used to Sassy sleeping with him. It's so damn cute to see them asleep together. Baron is beginning to eat better but I have to admit that the Beast is making things to entice him. I don't care if he does as long as Baron is eating. The other thing he is finally doing is giving Baron the pills (dissolved in water) for his ulcer. When I reminded the Beast about HIS pain when he had his ulcer long ago, he finally figured that I might be right that Baron wasn't eating because of stomach pain. He starts eating within about a half hour of receiving the medication. When dissolved in water, the pills are like Maalox and coat the stomach, thereby reducing pain for him.
Well, it's time to close. I love you all. I'm hoping for another good night's sleep (I only woke up twice to go to the bathroom and never fully woke up...*grin*). Say a little prayer for me. ***Hugs***
