\"Simple<\/p>\n

FOR TODAY<\/strong> September 6, 2015<\/p>\n

Outside my window…<\/strong> dark and probably 75F. We’re getting to 100F or higher toward the end of this week. My mother-in-law refers to it as “county fair weather”. I refer to it as “Purgatory”.<\/p>\n

I am thinking…<\/strong> about the blood draws I had on Friday and the tests coming up on the 15th and 16th.<\/p>\n

I am thankful…<\/strong> that I’m not Kim Davis. She is sitting in jail AND the misguided souls at Westboro Baptist Church are coming to protest HER for causing gay marriage. (I couldn’t make this<\/a> up if I tried!)<\/p>\n

In the kitchen…<\/strong> sitting here eating a Cup of Noodles and drinking a Coke.<\/p>\n

I am wearing…<\/strong> aqua shirt and capri sweats.<\/p>\n

I am going…<\/strong> to IKEA<\/a> tomorrow, I think, to keep Daniel entertained as it’s a day off of school. (I’m seriously hating three-day weekends right now.)<\/p>\n

I am wondering…<\/strong> about if I have to do both of the colon prep things I got from the G-I specialist. They gave me a kit in the office and then I discovered a prescription for GoLYTELY<\/a> when I was picking up another prescription at Target today. Given that I was puking the GoLYTELY<\/a> up pretty violently before my last colonoscopy (14 years ago), I’m hoping that I don’t have to do that one!<\/p>\n

I am reading…<\/strong> The Alpine Winter<\/u> by Mary Daheim. I finished Lord of the Wings<\/u> by Donna Andrews and read\/finished The Alpine Vengeance<\/u> by Mary Daheim.<\/p>\n

I am hoping…<\/strong> for a good sedated appointment for Daniel on Thursday and that we don’t have to postpone again.<\/p>\n

I am looking forward to…<\/strong> Bible study with my church ladies on Wednesday. I’ve missed them for the last two months!<\/p>\n

I am hearing…<\/strong> the sound of the grandfather clock in the living room.<\/p>\n

A Daniel story for today…<\/strong> Mr. Boy went to my room where I was unplugging the power cable for my laptop and climbed on the bed. I told him to go get his blankie and turn off his light if he wanted to come have cuddles… and he did! He fell asleep not long after.<\/p>\n

Around the house…<\/strong> cats and humans going to bed.<\/p>\n

A favorite quote for today…<\/strong> “It’s no use crying over spilt milk — it only makes it salty for the cat.” — Random Quote Generator<\/a><\/p>\n

One of my favorite things…<\/strong> iced vanilla latt\u00e9s made with whole milk.<\/p>\n

A few plans for the rest of the week:<\/strong> PT on Tuesday, Bible study and my FIL’s birthday on Wednesday, Daniel’s sedated dental appointment on Thursday, and two gatherings on Saturday.<\/p>\n

A peek into my day…<\/strong> I missed church this morning so I’ll probably be watching this later…<\/p>\n
