Doctors visit...

I went to the doctor today. It's been over a year since my last blood test and it was also time for the dreaded woman's yearly. I do my mammograms yearly like a good girl as my mom died from breast cancer when I was in my early 20's and she was only 57. I do hate going for the pap and the yearly exam. I had put that exam off for I think going on 3 years. Bad girl. Luckily I had to get naked for a total stranger that was a intern from another city here on a visit. Phew. Remember I live in a small town. Once I went for my yearly and the next day I saw my doctor at a small town local country fair. Boy, that was embarrassing. Knowing he had just saw parts of me no one should ever see, I wanted to die and go home. LOL That's over with for awhile-thank goodness. I have an appt. for my mammogram later this month. I'll post on the blood work when I hear. Sometimes they call the same day and sometimes it takes days and I have to call and question them. After that early morning fun I went straight to get a coffee. Then off to the grocery store and then I got my toes painted today. I still can't reach my left toe. Even after all the PT I did last year I still have lost a lot of range of motion in my left hip. It's a pain in my ass to cut my left toenails. I'm sad to say. I still have muscle spasms and it still causes me grief and pain at times but it's better now then it was weighing 300 pounds, so I won't complain much. So needless to say it's a joy to cover up my old ass toenails up with paint. I'm getting "old feet". How did that happen? There is no way I can paint my left toenails and I can't get my hubby to do it. I've tried. So it only costs me $3.50 at the beauty collage for a toe painting and I'm good. So as I Twittered/Tweeted/Twitted or whatever I did or said- I enjoyed have my feet up & my toes painted more than I did having my feet in stirrups @ the dr. office today. Oh yeah, how could I forget this- weigh in at the doctor's office is the same as my scale @ home pretty much. I weighed in this morning while dressed on my way out the door to the appointment. What was my weight at the doctors office you may ask? ♫Drum roll please: 149.3 Oh Yeah! I've maintained that weight now for 13 months and I'm proud of myself. What a gift I have been given.



Other than that- Life goes on....and it's good.
