This morning we took a drive to Round Rock for a CT scan.
We arrived early but were able to get in fairly quickly
The CT included having a line of fluid dripped into my veins. It went as is my typical fashion – on the third try, he managed to find a workable vein.
It was time to finish topping off the tank with gasoline. So a trip to the Murphy station at Walmart was called for. I saved thirteen cents a gallon over what is paid at H.E.B. earlier this week, which is why I only pumped a couple of gallons at H.E.B.
The pump was out of receipt paper or something malfunctioned that kept it from giving me a printed receipt. The cashier in the little office was able to print one for me though.
I Received a new INR testing meter. I tested for the first time in a few weeks. One point five means my blood clots a little too easily. I don’t want clots going through my veins – our worse yet – not going through the blood vessels. I don’t want an artery to become clogged.
Spaghetti boiling away in the smaller instapot.
Meat sauce cooked up in a cast iron skillet.
I took an unexpected and unexpectedly long nap this afternoon. I can relate to this baby.
FIRST FRIDAY POTLUCK AND GAME NIGHT AT OVER THE HILL
Goodnight and God bless.
