What happened to spring & summer.  It's only 32º this morning.  Over the weekend everyone was out planting flowers and now we have frost.  Luckily I heard that it was coming and went out last night and covered all of my tender plants.  I hope the ones I didn't get to have survived too.  We're suppose to get up to about 62º today.  Wow!  Aint't that somethin.  Yesterday it didn't even get to 60º though, so I guess we're going in the right direction.


I have to work today, so no fun in my plans.  Then, Thursday I have to go in for an appointment with the nurse concerning my colonoscopy.  Yuck!  I'm really not looking forward to that, but I guess it has to be done and I've put it off for many years now.  I also have to go to the lab tomorrow for blood work.  I get so tired of all these medical visits.

We are chilly here this morning, too, after getting up to 82° yesterday. It has generally been a cool spring for us this year.


I sympathize with you on not looking forward to the colonoscopy. Have you had one before? I had one a couple of years ago. It was not really all that bad. The prep is the worst part. And it is good to have the peace of mind afterward. But it is not the kind of thing you do for fun!

Kaci, sorry about your weather going up and down, too far down in this case, but Mother Nature is just trying to get straightened out.

You're the first one that's told me the prep wasn't as bad as they thought it would be.

Yes, Mother Nature has been playing tricks on us.


I don't know if they'd give me the pill.

Hi Kaci--hope your weather continues to warm up. We have been very chilly and showery here in CA--but I won't complain because I know what the summer will bring :-)
Just wanted to tell you that I had a colonoscopy last year--I was very anxious because my Mom had colon cancer. But the text was nothing (prep wasn't pleasant, but I wasn't up during the night) and I got wonderful news from it--the polyps were not the type that converts to cancer and I don't have to repeat the test for another 10 years!! I wish you well with yours. Did they tell you that you MUST have someone with you to drive you home?
Hugs,
Carol

Yes, they told me that I have to have someone drive me home and they
also said that I should have someone stay with mefor the night.
