Is It Hot In Here, Or Is It Duavee?

One of my 'feet of clay' is impatience. Second is dealing with medical issues. Put them together, and it's a ticking time bomb waiting to explode on the nearest innocent bystander.

I hope you're at least wearing a bib.

Today was the much anticipated Big Appointment with the chosen Physician's Assistant concerning my hormone issues. After much discussion back and forth with the Nurse, I became encouraged. However, the chat with the P.A. left me feeling deflated and discouraged. She didn't go for my Progesterone suggestion. She wants me to try Duavee for one week. Blood was drawn (enough to donate to any local vampire, in my opinion), the next appointment made, and we're going from there. Personally, I still want to try the Progesterone. I made the mistake of googling what to expect from this Duavee, and now I'm scared! It got very bad reviews. Are things going to get worse? Or better? Or no change?

Being medically challenged, I am sooooo out of my depth here. There's a lot of trepidation about this course floating around in my mind.

With each new drug, there goes my last hopes of living on a deserted island.

I'd rather be riding the Tail Of The Dragon in the North Carolina / Tennessee mountains with life and limb in danger at every turn than going thorough this.

Since the desert island dream is fading away, I'm going to watch Downton Abbey reruns, sip a bottle glass of chilled wine, and get lost in a more pleasant subject.

My Day

We've had a lot of this ...

Which made a lot of these ...

It's possible that at least one of these mushrooms are in the Armillaria mellea family but don't hold me to it. *grin*

Even though I do appreciate the rain, after three days of it, I think it's time for a little sunshine and cooler temp's. It's been too warm even for Southeast Georgia.

My medical appointment to discuss the hormone issues is tomorrow afternoon. I'll be sure to let you know what the Physician Assistant thinks about my ideas on this subject. Hopefully she is well versed in this field and together we can come up with a clear plan to get my health in ship shape order. I'm anxious to get back in the saddle again.

Rain Is Approaching

Rain is approaching! Hurray! We need it so desperately.

I can't believe it's November already. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holiday's. It's centered around family and friends. No cards, gifts or any of the other commercial trappings.

No Sunday lesson today. Still not feeling 100%. Not ill just unsettled. But, we're happy and well otherwise. Sitting here watching Downton Abbey reruns and sipping hot tea. Everything is lovely. Hope your day is too.

Happy Halloween

Funny Friday And Bugs Bunny Broomstick Bunny

Halloween is such good, clean fun. Reminds me of my salad days. Along with the usual "funnies" today, there is a link to one of my favorite Bugs Bunny cartoons "Broomstick Bunny". (Deepest apologies to my European friends who many not be able to view the Youtube cartoon.)

That's my year round costume ... 

Wish I'd thought of that. 

 Ok, so I had to get one dig in ... *snort*

That's for you Linda at Me And Mine. *grin*

Thankful Thursday

There's so much to be thankful for. Let's see, to pin it down to this very moment, it would have to be that we are still hanging on financially. It's close to the bone, but there is still a pulse. Truly finances have taken such a big hit with the economic downturn, rampant inflation and the almost zero interest rates, but like the bread and the fishes [Matthew 14:13-21], we are still able to pay the utilities, buy food, gasoline and medicine. All the essentials. I praise the LORD God for this mercy.

By the by, I hear that the Republican 'Debate' on that obscure CNBC network last night showed all our candidates in a good light. Even Donald Trump behaved like a gentleman (for once). Of course the Demoncrat talking heads made the usual @$$ out themselves with their vitriolic questions spewed from scowling faces. Wish I had watched it now. But this helps me feel very encouraged that this nightmare administration will soon join other rotten administrations in the dustbin of history.

What are you thankful for?
