A Gentlewomans' Perspective - Dark and Rainy, but Its ALL Good!

Mar. 21, 2006 - Dark and Rainy, but Its ALL Good!

Good Morning!

Its raining and the sky isdark, but I will praise the Lord! Especially since I dont have to water my rose bushes today!

Today I have my mammogram/sonogram. Dd has her first on the road drivers ed class (she's been driving since August, but this is part of the drivers ed class). What a day to drive in...ugh. Oh well, she needs practice in ALL types of weather!

I have my tote bag packed with my Making It Home magazine, my afghan, Country Woman and Sense and Sensibility audo cassette. I'll have a sub from subway while there.

Dd will be brought home so that will allow me to come straight home and stay home! As much as driver's ed cost, they'd better offer pick up and drop off services!

Its safe to assume that we will keep it low today, a little reading and some audio cassette books for ds, and some math work for him to take to grannies house should about do it for him today. When we get home, I think we'll just put in some movies and relax.

.....

Its later! My doctors appointment went as well as can be expected. The mammogram did not detect anything, but then, the mammogram is really only to give an idea of what the breast look like. They cannot detect small lumps that are attached. But my doctor felt it and set up an appointment for Thursday with the surgeon. A biopsy will be performed.

One great thing that made the mammogram more comfortable was the mammo-pad. Its a white pad, about the size of a mouse pad and it is made of a foam like material. Less pain and and trauma (WARMTH!).

Anyway, I came home after a bite to eat at subway. The kids were home (dd had arrived home from drivers ed) and ds was still on the computer working on hooked on phonics and a jump start adventure cd-rom. So, I just relaxed in my recliner, crotched and watched Anna Karenina. Actually, I was able to view two versions. One with Sean Bean (Lord of the Rings and National Treasure) and the older version with Vivian Liegh (Gone With the Wind). The newer version was on first on one movie channel, then the older version came on afterwards on another movie channel. AND I happen to be reading th book again!

Dinner was repurposed ground venison/gravy and mixed veggies with rice and dd's tollhouse cookies.

All in all, a blessed day!
