Is it just me or are the weeks flying by. I can't believe it! I can barely get through day it seems and a week has passed. This hasn't been my greatest week. It started out last week when I went to get my mammogram and was told that a medication I was using topically was showing up on the scan and looked too much like a calcification to continue. So I had a followup appt this week.... Well, I did everything I knew to do to remove any trace of the medication and went to my procedure feeling tip top. But after it was done, the nurse said the calcification still was showing up.. so we tried a few things and she marked the areas where I had been using the meds and redid the mammogram, and it still showed up on the scan, but not with the eye so the radiologist came gave a look and declared it was just from the medication.. and said I was fine. So I asked,, "so there is nothing anywhere on the scans to show a problem?" and the answer was a lovely "No problems!." So at least I did get a good report. ButI am definitely going back to my skin doctor to ask for a different medication! 3 mammos in a week is just too much!
Because I had had such a miserable time at the appointment that day, sweetie took me out for a lovely breakfast at our new favorite place..
Today is my dearest Lynn's birthday.. first of all, praise God for Lynn! He is the absolute best husband.. At our ages now, I am afraid I have been through so much that I am not as able to keep up with him. And I know there are times he doesn't feel like going out to mow or rake the leaves but he is so faithful because he wants things to alway look just so! So I pray God's blessing on him for good health, strength, and happiness every day.. Today he gets his free dinner from Mission Barbecue for being a veteran. so I get to enjoy doing out as well!
Tonight we will go to IFA, Intercesors for America, which we have done for many years.. We love this group of precious friends who, like us, are so concerned about the decline in our nation, the rise in inflation, the poor government that seems to prefer the criminals who kill and maim our citizens without justice. We will be praying for a fair election.. and for godly people to win their seat in government. We have a terrific neighbor who lives down the street who is running for town council and I so pray he wins. He is a firefighter and a fine man who puts his own life on the line for others in our community.
We have a wonderful new sheriff and our " woke" present town council refuses to allow him to put forth his new policies to defend out city, and stop the rampant crime that has diminished our city's standing in the state., I hope you are all praying for our nation, and voting for men and women whose purpose at this time is to take back our land for good purposes and not for the evil that has put us in such deep decline. "evil exists because good people do nothing!"
2 Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Three mammograms in one week is definitely too many! Glad there was a good outcome as a result, though.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, three are more than enough. I’m suffering a bit from that outcome, but the news received is worth it! Thanks for your comment!
ReplyDeleteI did early voting at our city hall yesterday since we will be out of town on voting day. It's important!
ReplyDeleteI love Handel's Messiah! In college, our choir sang it and my bestie was the alto soloist. Such wonderful memories. In fact, we are leaving on a road trip Monday and plan to listen to Messiah on the way.
Now I am craving waffles!
Willow, safe travels on your road trip! Enjoy the colors and hopefully beautiful weather! Blessings, Schotzy
DeleteOh my that is a lot of mammograms. Glad they finally cleared you. Always fun to try and new restaurant. The waffle sounds delicious. It's sad many restaurants have ended up closing here in our city too. What a lovely family photo and happy belated birthday to your hubby.
ReplyDeleteWow, three mammograms in a week is way too many. But you're reminding me not to wear a prescription cream I use when I have mine next week. Breakfast is one of my favorite meals to eat out, though we're not often out early enough for it. Belated happy birthday to your husband!
ReplyDeleteI am glad I could serve as a reminder. As a result I have some pretty painful cracks beneath! Yeowl! At least it is over for another year! Thank you for the birthday greeting! It was a good one! Schotzy!
