Wednesday Part 2

I had my mammogram.  I think I was in and out of there in 10 minutes.  Is that normal?  Seems like the first one I had I was there forever and they took about 100 pictures.  From every angle.  Today it was 2 pictures for each side. 

And I am such a blond.  When I received the letter saying that my appointment was due I didn’t call the number on the letter.  I looked up the phone number online.  I didn’t receive a reminder call so I called today the number on the letter.  No appointment there.  They gave me another number to call.  No appointment there.  I looked in my day planner and there was the number.  I called that number and sure enough I had an appointment.  And she had to tell me where it was.  Ok.  I get there early and I don’t remember the place at all.  This is not where I was last year.  Anyways they take their pictures and away I go.  But my results are going to delayed because they have to get the films from the other place first.  Why oh why didn’t I go to the same place. 

Then it just hit me that they asked me who my doctor was and I told them my general doctor was, not my OB.  So, now I think I better call them and make sure they send the results to my OB. 

Point of this story is that on my home from getting my breasts squished I stopped at Starbucks and got myself a treat.  Venti carmel macchiato-Iced.  Yummy.  Now I am on a caffeine high. 

I am planning on yogurt for dinner.  Maybe some toast to soak up some of that coffee. 

Wednesday

Had my weigh in today.  149.  Yeah, under 150 still.  So I was done cleaning and went home.  Was going to eat lunch and decided that the only time I was going to get in a run today was right now.  So, I got dressed real fast and drove to my path.  Found my ipod in the car, but no earbuds.  :(  So I ran with out any music and I did just fine.  I have so much going on it was good to play out things in my head.  .25 walk, 2 MILE RUN, .25 cool down walk.  Yeah!! for 2 miles.  I wore my knee brace.  I was glad I did.  My knee was talking to me at 1.75. 

I have my mammogram today.  I had one last year.  Or should I say, I had two last year.  They found a lump last year so I had to have 2 and then a ultra sound and then a biopsy.  It was nothing.  Thankfully.   I am preparing myself to go through that again.  The techs all said that I would probably have to do that again and if it does happen they will take out the lump that is causing the problem so I won’t have to do it every year. 

And I finally lost one of my toenails.  I think the other 2 are going to hang on.  It doesn’t hurt, just looks funny.  I think my toe looks like a astronaut with out his face mask on.  (This is for you Shana) :)

 

So my shower and lunch are calling my name.
