After stepping outside last night to grab the Tovala box, I realized I needed to change before leaving this morning. Now, it’s jeans and a long sleeve tee. I think I squeaked a little when I stepped outside with my naked ankles! And now I’m all trussed up, ready to pull the plow. 🤣🤣🤣

Tolerated the bra for 4 hours. Ugh. Came off as soon as I walked in the door.

John, you strap down the boys for a few hours. You won't be making bra jokes after that

I saw a butterfly flitting about while I was sitting on the front porch awaiting the tow guy Tuesday. I was surprised, as there is nothing blooming in my yard yet, not even the cherry and certainly not the butterfly bush. I asked it, “where are you finding pollen?” Then I saw this Wednesday after the flower bed cleanup. And, John, I know those “boys” start drooping at a certain age, too. My second mate was 17 years older than me. But they aren’t required to be squeezed between 2 plates for several minutes yearly. Come to think of it, I had my last mammogram at the same time as the bone density test. The bone density was much much much more pleasant!

I have to say that after my last mammo found a lump, I am not a fan. (BTW it was a cyst - nothing to worry about)
Had to come back for an ultrasound - ultrasound took 10 minutes and was far more comfortable!
If I could choose, I'd say ultrasound all the way.
As for weather, Dresi and I will definitely be on the deck today!

I’ll be in bed, with fan on high and AC humming. I’m looking forward to a chance of (wet) snow flurries on Saturday.
I will never have another mammogram. My doc kept ordering them and I ignored the orders. Breast cancer has been the least of my worries as it is no -existent in my immediate family history. And I agree - ultrasound is much better! (I had it for my gall stones.)

They wanted me to go into some high risk breast cancer program because there's been a lot of incidences of cancer in my family, and both my mom and paternal grandmother had BC.
Both were diagnosed after age 65, and both instances were discovered on a routine mammogram. Slow-growth that hadn't spread. Mom had a lumpectomy and radiation. Grandma was 87 and decided she didn't need to worry (she was right BTW - lived another 10 years after that).
I declined the invitation - don't need to add an MRI to my list of things-to-do.

Dresi and I have been loving the deck this past week. I know it's bad to have these temps, but I figure I should make the most of it.
Meanwhile, a co-worker in SD said they have almost 5' of snow.

My room was colllld today. Even with the fan on low it was a little too cool for me without the heat from my blanket. Until around dusk. For some reason it (or I) warmed up and I needed to turn the fan up while I was treating my eyes.
I loved today!

Since we didn’t get any frost from the last chill, it looks like my tulip magnolia will be bursting open today or tomorrow. My joints will complain bitterly over these fluctuating temperatures, but the plants and trees sure love it. Tree sex has started!

Another miserable day of trying to sleep on Tuesday. And I was totally surprised! I had run out of Nice Dreams tincture last week and was able to use some of the money I set aside for the car battery to buy a couple bottles. They arrived Monday. But, alas, it didn’t help. Nothing could turn my mind off. Nothing. When I start reliving the worst day of my life, I know I’m done.

Not an oil slick, but a slick of pine pollen in Myrtle Beach. I slipped out this morning before heading upstairs to get some photos of my blooming tulip magnolia. I was outside all of 2 or 3 minutes. Came inside and sneezed at least a dozen times. Ugh. Spring.

Wow! Instead thunderstorm this year? I was surprised to see lightning while I was driving to the post office this morning. At first I thought it was an oncoming vehicle and dimmed my headlights, but at the next flash I was out of the tree cover and saw it was lightning. No thunder that I could hear.
