Happenin's 'round Here

This week has been a little busier than normal. We've had workers here replacing our home's siding. The noise level has been "interesting". Mostly from hubby dealing with the insurance company over it, (; bless his heart. I'm thankful I have a man that handles that sort of thing. (Although, I'm up for the task if need be. Grrr, grrr.)

Yesterday, Ari & I went to the Dermatologist for a checkup on a few spots of concern. We got a good report for the most part, thank the Lord. There's a spot she wants to keep an eye on on my face but other than that, we're good. And from that, and the prescription I picked up last night, I'm so thankful for good insurance. (How can they in all good conscience charge SO much for medications?) But if you feel you might need to have your skin screened and don't have insurance, you can go to The American Academy of Dermatology to see about a free skin cancer screening and/or learn more about skin self exam. It's sooo important that we take care of ourselves~so many people love us and depend on us...if you don't do it for yourself, do it for them. Speaking of, there's a mammogram I've been putting off...ugh.

Tomorrow, I have an appointment with my podiatrist. Yet another follow up visit and hopefully to schedule the remaining surgery to have the pins removed from my toes. Also, my ankle has been acting up so I'm going to see if he thinks I might need another steroid shot in it. The last one was over five years ago. I was limping so badly because of it, he thought it would be a good thing to do. And it really helped. I'm not limping right now because of it but it sure "talks to me" when I've been walking alot. (A girl can't properly walk the mall if her ankle hurts.)

Well, I have a bread pudding (to use up those bits and pieces of leftover bread and the three apples that had begun to frown at me whenever I walked by) that's needing the final touches put to it and a loaf of bread that's needs checking so, until next time...

thank's for stopping by!
