Where the Day Went
Okay, so I went off to my mammogram this morning with my sister and the upshot is that I had a needle biopsy, which is probably nothing, but you know, it's not officially nothing until you get the call with the results, which will be tomorrow.
Other than having a very good time with my sister, despite what we were actually doing together, it was a mostly sucky day, I guess. It was sixty-ish here today, which is odd, but very rainy and windy, so deciding what to wear was pretty much a no-win situation. After I dropped the Sibs off at home, I went on my missions, first to Fortunoff's, which had a sign in the window that Christmas trees were 40% off. Yeah, right, 40% off of the most overpriced Christmas trees I've ever seen. They actually had one priced at $850!!! They had nothing small, and the smallest one they had was $250. Not. Happening.
I did get calendars at the mall; I got them both Futurama calendars. Then I went to Home Depot, which had a nice tree on display, but of course, none in stock; however, the nice guy who helped me told me they had fourteen of them at another store. (And I have a bridge if you're interested ...)
Then I had a 1:00 at the lady doctor, who said after the whole examination "Good! There's no ovarian cyst!" and I said "Is that what you were looking for?" Hey, tell a person. Anyway, I was done with that, and even though the other Home Depot was in the same town as the doctor -- Hackensack, our county seat -- I completely blanked on how to get there and went by way of China, but they did, in fact, have one tree in stock, so I got that. I'll put it up tomorrow, but it looks like a nice, pre-lit with colored bulbs, six and a half foot tree for $72. Yeah, way more like it.
Last stop: supermarket, and then home. It was nice to be home. I got a call from the people fixing K's closet tomorrow to confirm, so I expect to be here all day, and the kid is working, so I'm thinking I may get gifts wrapped if I have enough paper left from last year, since I didn't plan ahead and think I could wrap tomorrow and get gift bags. (I know I have paper, just probably not enough bags.) And I'll get a wash done and maybe maybe maybe a little writing, too.
Less sucky once I got home, I guess. Just tired now, and somewhat bruised, although not sore. I was such a good girl during the procedure they should have given me a lollipop.

Wow, do you blow me away! You say you are a worrier and talk about having a cold, or sore throuat, or your stomach may be bothering you. Thing that happen on a daily basis and you are always saying that you complain alot. (Which I don't think you do.) The just like you were saying it is going to be cloudy tomorrow, you come out with, "I had a needle biopsy, which is probably nothing, but you know....." OH MY GOD!! Just like that. Its going to be cloudy tomorrow, I had a needle biopsy, I bought a Christmas tree. You are amazing! I would have expected THEY DID A NEEDLE BIOPSY!!!! That's the way most people react. I am sure you are right and it is nothing. Don't misunderstand, I don't think you should worry, but I had a biopsy, but I had an appointment for it, got ready for it, yada yada. They don't usually just do a mamogram and then the biopsy. I am in awe of you calm. Please reassure us that it was nothing. I will be waiting. ((Hugs))
