WEIGH-IN WEDNESDAY

Just a brief post since I have am off to nearby Mountain Home for some medical tests today. See you later after my crisis management days are over, or maybe sooner.

I gained 1/2 lb. but not surprised, after eating out Friday. Then my husband surprisingly cooked T-Bones for 5 persons yesterday. Beef "weighs" heavy if eaten the day before weigh-in. The reasons for this would be too much information for this blog!!!

The clouds are gathering for more rain, so best get moving.

LATER: I made it to Mountain Home and back without storms, but have to return again today to register as outpatient at hospital for the cat-scan and blood work.

The oncologist's nurse has asked me to stop in this afternoon to see if we
can resolve my vein dilemma, since my orders include two vein procedures and I have only one reliable, easily accessible vein.

I hate these so-called minimumly invasive procedures; there is no such thing. I am a person of minuscule veins, anything called a needle seems like medieval torture. One puncture wound is never enough for these vein-busting grinches.

I wish I were a porcupine; I'd fire several spine needles back at these Mafia bloodsucking, blood thirsty leeches who are tortuous agents of bruises and pain.
