Random 5 Friday




    1. The Women's Center called already with the results from my MRI.  They saw something on the left breast that they want to look at with an ultrasound, which is now scheduled for this coming Tuesday. My random thought about this is just to wonder if they are milking my insurance company for every penny they can get; or I am blessed to have insurance and that a problem can be caught before it is worse; and those two thoughts are followed by wondering if I could go the way of Angelina Jolie and just get the crazy things taken off once and for all. Sigh.
    2. I am getting my hair cut tonight, and I am asking her to CUT it this time. No trim. I want my hair short, short, short. I'm sick of uncontrollable frizzy curls. Short works so much better, especially in the summer.
    3. Our sweet Onyx has lost more weight according to Dr. Jill, who made a house call last night. He got a shot of vitamin B and a shot of steroid. Poor boy needs to eat and stop losing weight. She is afraid it might be a form of cancer that is just not detectable yet, except in his weight loss. She will visit again next month. He behaves normally and does not seem to be hurting.
    4. We are going to try to get up in time to go to our local farmers' market, which takes place in our historic downtown area every Saturday. We just never think to go, and have decided to go this weekend. I'll keep you posted!
    5. The dinner at the Museum Board President's house, last night, was very nice. They had it catered (of course) by a local Cuban Restaurant. It really was delicious. Yellow rice with chicken, steamed rice with black beans, melt-in-your-mouth pork, fried plantains, salad, and for dessert, flan and key lime pie. Beverages included sangria, sodas, water, and beer.  They treated us very well, and it was fun visiting with staff members I don't get to talk to much at work because they are downstairs, and I am upstairs. Fun!  Their home is a mansion and gorgeous, with two dining rooms - one on each side of the huge kitchen. The marble foyer has a fountain in the middle of it. You get the picture.... major wow factor.

     
    I don't know why that first #1 is stuck up there, but I can't make it go away. Thanks for stopping by my page!  Wishing you a good weekend!  Peace, love & hugs.
