Doctors, Genealogy and Other Stuff


This morning was my first doctor appointment of the month.  I had an EEG which I found out records my brain waves.  Yes, apparently I have a brain J  Anyway, the tech placed twenty-two wires on my head.  The test itself took about thirty-five minutes, but with the prep I was there for two hours.  She had to put a lot of goop on my head and my hair feels awful.  Home now and feeling lazy only because I got up at 5:30 this morning.  I don’t think today will be very productive.



I was right.  Today was not very productive.  I read for a while.  Worked on my genealogy.  Watched some television.  Talked to Jana.  Jana picked up her dog last night.  Her name is either Mattie or Maddie (I’m not sure which).  She is two years old.  She is a small dog, about 12 pounds.  She is a Chihuahua mix.  When I get a picture I will put it on my blog.



Talked to Jana and her name is Mattie.



Another hot day today.  Upper 90’s.  So, I stayed in and got inside work done – mostly genealogy.  After supper I went out back and started the sprinklers for the garden.  Scared Stephanie.  She knocked on my door, came in the house calling me, saw my phone, and thought the aliens had got me.  Then she noticed me in the back.  She went to Tigertown and on the way back it took her an hour and a half.  A tractor trailer truck with hazardous material overturned and they were rerouting traffic.  It happened on Hwy 80, but not sure where.  Will have to watch the news tonight.


I also put water in the birdbaths and filled the birdfeeders this evening. I even put fresh food in the hummingbird feeder.  I watered all my plants.  I have several that look like they are dying.  Not surprised with all this heat.  I still think the cement planters have something to do with that.  However, my lantanas and hydrangea looks really good!  Almost ready for pictures.  Now I am done for the day.


Good Morning!  Another hot sunny day, and I am off to have my blood drawn – again!  This time they took nine vials of blood.  The tech that took my blood said Dr. Verson is very thorough and is checking for just about everything.  That is good.  On the way home I stopped at Walmart to pick up a few groceries.  I stopped at the new one in Ladonia that is just a grocery.  Had breakfast and pills after arriving home.  Now it is time to get a few things done.


Not going to bore you with the same old same old stuff.  Still waiting for the rain.  They keep predicting it but it doesn’t come, so I keep watering.


Kevin and Renea arrived home on Saturday.  They are both tired but they had a really good time.  Kevin is grilling hamburgers and hot dogs for their supper.  Since they had eaten every meal “out” while they were gone they were ready for hamburgers and hot dogs.  Lola and Copper were so excited to see them they almost knocked them over greeting them.


Today is Sunday and we finally had some rain early this morning.  Yea!  Looks like it is going to be an indoor kind of day.  I have been working on the Althoefer genealogy.  I also filled out the paperwork for my test on Tuesday. 



Kevin is mowing the back grass.  He also picked some veggies from the garden.  When he finished he came to my front door and suggested I call a septic tank service.  Seems the grass above my leech lines is brown, and that is not good.  Will call them on Monday (tomorrow).


Planned on watching the NASCAR race this afternoon, but it was rained out.  Ended up being a lazy day for me.
