Last week, after additional problems with my digestive tract, my doctor suggested a colonoscopy. So, Saturday I work all day so I can make up for missing Monday. I jump into my car to rush off to work, but my engine won't turnover. My husband, Quail and I work to get it started. No luck. So, when in doubt, call my 22 year old son, the mechanic. (Bit of advice: if you have 1 or more children...encourage at least 1 of them to become a mechanic...it's a worthwhile investment!). So, Quail & I traded cars and I sped off to work.Later, I find out it took Quail Jr about 45 seconds to diagnose the problem. I need a new fuel pump. Fortunately, it is covered by warranty. Whew!
Sunday is spent:
Which brings us up to today....Tuesday: I was hoping to be back to work, but the laxative decided to work for longer than just Sunday and Monday. So, another day at home, near the bathroom. :( For the record, while colonoscopies may be a necessary medical procedures, they are NOT fun!!
This is my third colonoscopy over the last 20 years...but this time, I had a secret weapon. My new Kindle!! So nice to be able to have something to read while I was in bed between trips to the loo. I went through 2 books of the series I am reading!!
They are shorter than your basic novel, but entertaining and light reading. The series is about a woman who lives in Freeport, IL and is a private investigator for the paranormal/ghosts.
I did get a few items decluttered this weekend:
1) Three old window valances
2) two tee shirts
3) 1 book
Plus, I threw away, two t-shirts in not-even-good-enough-for-thrift store, and 2 stray holey socks.
I think I am up to 29 items thrifted or tossed for January 2012!! Woo-hoo!!
Here's hopin' you have had a better week, then me!!
