Executive Decision

I made an executive decision. I am on my last tube of Cucumber Mint chapstick. I had forgotten to use my Dragonfruit Lemon a few Saturdays ago. I was recovering. I haven’t used Dragonfruit Lemon in a while, actually. The Cucumber Mint is softer to put on my lips.

Because I have not used the Dragonfruit Lemon one, I decided to just have a Dragonfruit Lemon weekend so I used it on both Saturday and Sunday because I was not going anywhere. I have about a half of a tube left of that one. I know that I have Açaiberry in my basement, somewhere, and we should get it for next summer I think.

This is My Life.

I messaged my doctor’s office on MyChart last night and I awoke to an answer this morning. I felt completely satisfied! My year is 100% planned and I 100% know what I need to do for my upcoming procedures for the year. I only have one more.

I don’t know how this happened or even when but, this is my life. I’m really not sure how I feel about it, but I am doing it.

I will call for my bone density scan in October for my first appointment of 2026. I really can’t believe this is how it is, but it is.

Just Exist

I pillaged today. I have a virtual appointment on Friday with my neurologist. I am going to see my optometrist the Tuesday after that appointment. These appointments just keep coming!

I’m really not sure how we feel about this, but I just exist between appointments now. I was not ready for that at all! I think that things will start settling down during the ‘ber’ months. At least that’s what my schedule says at this point.

1012°

I got my teeth cleaned today from Sarah. She was my hygienist, but then my Mom wanted her so I went with Kristen because I liked her as well and my Mom and I got our teeth cleaned at the same time. Now that my Mom and I are no longer on the same schedule because I get my teeth cleaned three times a year instead of two, we both can see her.

She was the one who suggested to my Mom that I should take the pills for my colonoscopy. She asked me about that today and I shook my head and said it did not work so I am going back in October. I told her that we just have to wait for the schedule to open up and then I will schedule one. I told her that it will be unpleasant, but at least it’s a, “Ber” month.

I told her that I did not know what I was thinking when I scheduled all of these appointmentsin June in July. She looked at me and said, “Well, we didn’t know it was going to be 1012°?!”

I laughed at that statement because it has been so hot! Dr. Fox asked me how my summer was and I told them that it’s so hot!

So, my teeth are cleaned and next week I am going for my next appointment. I really can’t believe that this is how it is now but it is…

One of the, “Ber” Months!!!

I was going to write about the heat for the past two days, but it was too unbearable for me. Today it’s a little bit easier to breathe. But all this back-and-forth is doing insane things to my body!!!

I am leaving the house tomorrow to get my teeth cleaned but it’s projected to be in the 80s tomorrow not the 90s.

I don’t know what I was thinking to schedule all these appointments in this heat but MS needs to be addressed even in the heat. My Mom called to reschedule my colonoscopy and I can’t do it until after September 25. That schedule isn’t open yet so we’ll have to call again toward the end of July.

My rescheduled colonoscopy and endoscopy is not going to be pleasant at all with my two day preparation before the procedure but at least it will be one of the, “Ber” months!!!

Inherit

I realized today that it’s July 2 so I should be watching Hallmark Christmas movies. So I put one on today:

I remember I saw this one last year in three stages. But today, I got to watch the whole movie from the beginning. I think it’s cute! I was hoping to find A Crown for Christmas, but not yet I guess. There’s time!

Because I was watching a Christmas movie, I saw an excellent Hallmark Christmas commercial and I had to share even though it’s NOY holiday themed (it’s July) and I am NOT a first generation homebuyer so neither is Sean, but this commercial made me cry:

When it talks about, “Those eyes.” That’s a trait that we all have gotten from my Dad. He got it from his mom, my grandma.

Sean has them too, even though when he was young, he saw a picture of his dad, and he thought it was him and he asked when he had blue eyes. He got those eyes from me and I remember the day in the hospital when they changed from gray to bown. He was about three weeks old.
