Too Many Doctor Appointments!

I was up at 6:30 this morning. Not my favorite time to get up, but had to because I needed to leave the house by 7:20 a.m. I had a Physical Therapy appointment at 8 am. Since I was early, went to moms to use the bathroom and found her garage was up. I went into the house through the garage door to find her asleep. So, I went to the bathroom, then left her a note. As I was leaving, I found a stack of stuff for me. I grabbed it and headed to PT. Since Bob is in California, I had the other gal that works with him. The best part is - she good! He picked the right person to work with him. She worked me over, and I have a feeling I'm going to hurt tonight! 

After my PT, I headed to Dutch Brothers for some tea, then to Phil's to wish him a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! My boy turned 40 today! Hard to believe! We sat and chatted on the couch, going over the stuff mom gave me. He took the newspapers that had him in them. There was one of Patrick as well. Then we went through the recipes that were from grandmother Wineland's stuff. He kept them. Some were ones of moms. He said he can substitute the eggs for sour cream or something else. He took some good recipes, but I really didn't need them, so it worked out. 

Came home and got some laundry going. Then realized I forgot to go to Colleen's to drop off the boxes she needed for the garage sale in Sept. So, as I was leaving, Patrick was coming back from golf. He told me I needed to be back by 12:15, since we had to leave for Olympia - yet again! 

I made it to Colleen's. Picked up a quilt that is done, and something else. Then I gave her the "quilt as you go" quilt. Gave her some backing as well. We talked about what she could do to get the back attached to the quilt. She had a good idea, so I told her to go for it. After a few minutes, I headed back home to find I had 15 mins before we were to leave. 

My order of backing and batting arrived today, so I had to get the reimbursement out before we left. Then I brought the stuff in the house and Patrick put it all downstairs. I took out the backing fabric and it's nice blue fabric that we needed. 

Off to Olympia for my follow up appointment with my doctor. We went over my tests I have been doing the last couple weeks. She wants me to see the surgeon about the lump in my breast, just to be sure it's what everyone thinks it is. She said it's harder than it should be, so she wants to be really sure it's supposed to be liquid and not something else. I agreed. Then we talked about the kidney and she's going to check with my kidney doctor to see what other tests she wants. She also told me my biotin pills could be affecting my test results, so to go off them for a bit to see if that's the case. At least I can still use the shampoo. I had a good visit. Then Patrick had his oncology appointment with my doctor and not his. She's awesome. She told him about some protein powder that is clear. It's better to take that, instead of his creamy protein. Patrick is going to talk with his other doctor to see if she thinks that's too much protein for one kidney or if he can take it as well. Just before his appointment, I went and got my glasses. I really like them better! 

We then went to Dairy Queen for supper, sharing a 6-piece chicken basket. Then home. Once we were home, it was pretty much getting laundry moving and watching TV for a bit. I wanted to get back to my games, so I've been playing on them. 

Hopefully, we are done with appointments in Olympia for a while. Friday, Monday and today make for a long day each day! Tomorrow is another day - I'm HOPING tomorrow will be Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
