I MADE MY WAY TO DOLLAR TREE IN TOPEKA to find the aisles of the store very crowded with OLDER shoppers with the CARD SECTION of the store too busy to browse. Like a circling buzzard I dodged off to another aisle to look while the others got their cards and left.
If a person waits another week to purchase their cards, I think it may be slim pickens as this place is a very popular place to shop as they are nice cards for a fraction of the cost than a HALLMARK CARD.
Now to fill the cards out and have them ready to mail. It seems I send the family cards for Valentines, Easter, Christmas, Birthdays, Anniversaries and sometimes when ill or thinking of you. Always heartfelt. 💘February first is tomorrow. Each day I will write out a few cards so they are ready to mail by Friday. Never know these days how long it will take for the mail to travel to its destination.
Finding the LAB at this huge Hospital took some doing, but I managed. Got the paper work completed and waited for my turn. Technician was excellent. By this time I was hungry. Starbucks was my choice for white egg bites with roasted red peppers. I sat in the Dollar Tree parking lot eating my treat. Unsweetened Green Tea tasted really good. Shopped at Dollar Tree and then Natural Grocers where I rode an electrical cart. Checked out and loaded my spoils in the car. No eggs today as I like to buy soy-free eggs and they were out. Better luck next time.
TRAVELED HOME to put away the groceries. This week I must eat more fruits and veggies, take my supplements, work on decluttering and take time to read my Bible slowing down my intentions. There's no place like HOME to do this. The chaos in the world is out there. I wish I were feeling better.
My week-end was very uncomfortable health wise so I tried to stay close to a toilet.
While at the COTTAGE, I managed to shred papers finishing this task and took a bow. Having worked on this task for months, I just about couldn't believe that the shredding was done. A weight has been lifted off my shoulders knowing old PAPERS are off my property. As each piece past through my hands feeding them into the shredder, I realized that with each check written, my husband and I had to make money to pay these bills. He seriously was the BREAD WINNER in our HOME. Many hours of labor and sacrifice took place so the checks could be written. This is love from my dear husband. pause and give thanks.
Medical bill after medical bill were paid and we had a slew of them. I realized just how high some of our utility bills were when we lived in the old rock house. My eyes bugged recalling that they were indeed hefty. I had forgotten until I looked at the canceled checks. Paying car payments, gifts, remembering birthdays and holidays, medical, etc. came to remembrance. Seeing carbon copies of financial gifts written to family members that are no longer with us, made me somewhat contented that I remembered them on special occasions like Father's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, etc. with cards and cash. I hope they felt special. Heartfelt.

Hubby and I moved the two curio cabinets into different places which frees them up for me to clean them and stock them full of crystal and dolls which gets them out of boxes. This is a temporary fix as the rooms will have some work done to them and when the time is right, they will be moved again. Here we go again shuffling. It's the great American half time story especially for me.
ON MONDAY, I signed a release form at my old Gynecologist's office to have my medical records faxed to my new doc. I am looking forward to hearing what she has to say about what's going on in my body. FIBROIDS can be such a problem. Mine have reared their ugly heads close to 20 years. I had hoped to make it to menopause where they are suppose to shrink. I have my records and compare their sizes as time passes by. Mine have shrunk, but one is huge and has calcified putting pressure on other organs. Sometimes my side feels bloated.
As I read what is considered to be large fibroids, I took a deep breath as mine are huge. Even with them shrinking some, they may all calcify and cause pressure making it uncomfortable.
There are some newer techniques for removing these little monsters in the body. I will visit with the doctor and see what she thinks. I may be in lines for a hysterectomy. At any rate, something has to be done.
I question as to why so many women have fibroids. It is suggested as to why, but then that saying we don't know what causes them creeps in. LIFE would be better without them. That's a heartfelt response.
Valentine's are better.
I continue taking inventory when I can by taking pictures of items then packing them. It is a slow process for me as I don't feel the best. Forging ahead as best I can.
FEBRUARY is arriving in cold fashion. I hesitate to get out in this bitter cold weather. In a few days it will warm up making it easier to get around. Even with bundling up, it's bitter cold. Chills me to the bone.
