Quite A Day

Today was my appointment for my cystoscope. I have to have it done annually for a cancer recheck. Thankfully, I got the 'all clear' again this time around-nothing that I ever take for granted that's for sure. My husband and I enjoyed the day together. This morning it was only 8C when we headed out early before my appointment, and now it is 18.5C which is nice, but still on the cool side. The sun is shining brightly but it is quite windy. I finally had time to get my hair trimmed this afternoon. It has been nagging at me since last month, glad that I finally had the time to get it done. It looks and feels so much nicer. Even the girls noticed when we met them at the bus stop, that was impressive. Overall, it has been quite a day for me, how about yours? ~Photo is mine

How did something as simple as getting our hair trimmed become such a chore? Our world really moves too quickly, we have to slow it down some.

It's really good to receive good news after a test that you are all clear. I've been planning to have a haircut but it always gets postponed because of something beyond my control. I hope I could do it soon.

@Juliaacv That is true. When you are surrounded by great medical staff, it makes things much easier and much more comforting.

Yes, it was a relief, I am thankful that we have such great diagnostic procedures, but they can be nerve wracking. It is the people, the nurse and the doctor that make the difference.

I’m so glad your day went so well. I can only imagine how nervous a person must be. And the girls noticing your newly trimmed hair is just so female! We girls always notice any change in hairstyle! Today was the dentist, and then I went to the post office to mail a few packages. After that I seemed to get a nap that was well needed.

You deserved that nap, and hopefully you can enjoy more as the bone graft healing continues, you might just as well nap right through it all.

Just paying bills, getting a bonus, and enjoying the fall weather, sans the rain.

Thank you. I always hold my breath from the time I arrive on the OR table, until the time the doctor says, all clear, see you next year. It is more of a relief than I can say.

That's such great news about the all clear, must feel like a big weight off your shoulders. Glad you got to spend the day with your husband and squeeze in a haircut too. Sounds like a really good day overall, mine was pretty quiet in comparison!

I am glad for the good news. I am sure you really enjoyed the day with your husband. We still have warm days, the coolest temperature in the morning is now 15C, but it was again 26 C in the afternoon yesterday. A very warm start of fall.

@Juliaacv - The air was chilly when I went out this morning, but now that the sun is shining is really nice. I am going out to walk today.

The wind was cool today, the sun felt good and it was fine if you were in the sun and out of the wind. It should warm up some over the next few days.
