    Good morning;
    Roger-good luck tomorrow.
    Irene-I hope you feel better soon.
    Hi Vix
    The festival was fun and we avoided the rain. We had Japanese pancakes. They were lite and fluffy and had a creamy consistency inside.
    Have a great day! :)

    Good morning.
    Sounds like a great time at the festival, Jo.
    Irene, hope you're feeling better.
    Roger, good luck with your test tomorrow. If it's early in the morning, fasting after midnight is not so bad. I've gotten to where I usually just drink coffee in the morning. Relax, and think about floating on a cloud. :wink: Better to get things taken care of.
    Massage for me this a.m., then babysitting so my daughter and son-in-law can go out to lunch for his b-day. It'll be fun.
    Happy new week, everyone. :smile:

    Hi
    Some chances of rain throughout the week. Last night at 10PM it was 50 degrees and this morning it is still 50 degrees outside and I do have the heat turned back on. There is fog in the area, where the hospital is has a reported visibility of 1.5 miles.

    I should be heading out the door sometime after 8AM. The Outpatient test is scheduled for 10:30 with a arrive there a 1.5 hour early and due to the rush hour a anticipated drive of around 30 minutes.
    Just in case I have created a contact list and my brother knows where it is.

    Hello Joanne
    Thank You for the Well wishing

    Staying dry is a win to start with. I have not had Japanese Pancakes, I have had the Scallion Pancakes from the Hot food section of the Asian Food Center. As far as I know they are a Chinese Pancake and were good.

    Have a Good Day

    Hello Vix
    Thanks for the kind words, better safe than sorry. I'm sure happy that Medicare and the supplement are covering this. It makes me happy that I choose the supplement plan that covers anything Medicare doesn't cover.

    That sounds like a Nice day for You and them.

    Hi
    Some chances of rain throughout the week. It is 53 degrees outside and I do have the heat turned back on. I had my test yesterday at the outpatient section of the hospital, The results should be available tomorrow. I was there from 8:50 to 3:10PM.

    It is only a movie, Not to mention when I hear the Avengers I think of the British TV show.

    Hello Vix
    Well so far so good, I was in the outpatient reception before 9AM and they released me at 3PM, Add in the time to get dressed and be wheeled out the door it was around 3:30 before my brother drove me home. If and I say since it isn't happening I was going to run a marathon after leaving the hospital they would still put me in a wheel chair to the door of the truck.

    I should get the results tomorrow, Thursday.

    I hope Your day went well.

    Thank You for the Good Luck wishes.
    Roger

    Aw, feel better, Irene.
    Hi Jo.
    Cloudy today, possible t-storms this afternoon. No special plans for today.
    When I was at my daughter's the other day, they had gotten a magic sleep suit for my grandson, it was so cute....it looked like a little fat suit! It worked really well, he is getting much better sleep now.
    Happy Wednesday, everyone. :)

    Hi
    Some chances of rain throughout the week, looking outside it appears that there was light rain overnight. It is 51degrees outside and I do have the heat turned back on. I had my test Tuesday in the outpatient section of the hospital, The results should be available later today.

    Hello Irene
    I did indeed get the email and it is printed in 20 point type so that my brother can read it easily if need be.

    I hope I get good news, Wish me luck. I plan to sign up with the patient portal in a little while and see exactly what it tells me as well as call the GI doc later for results.

    That is a good idea not going if You are ill, why spread whatever it is. I hope it passes quickly.

    Good Luck with the rest of the trees, then I am guessing You will need to landscape ?

    Hello Vix
    The street outside is starting to dry, Yesterdays news showed humidity at 97% :( No wonder things are slow drying outside. I never heard of a Magic Sleep Suit, Interesting.

    Now if I could only get a good nights sleep. This waking up and not falling asleep quickly is getting old and I am sure it sapping my strength.

    Have a Good Day

    Hello Joanne
    I hope the results are good too, Time will tell.

    A smaller car, and here I thought You liked what You had :wink:
    My leaning is for the same or maybe larger in the next car. The bigger problem is that I want a Car, not a SUV, Crossover whatever they are, a van or a pickup truck. Then it needs to openable and started with a real key, no start button. If I had to get a car with one of those key fobs that do IMO to much the car has to work easily with the batteries out of the key fob.
    And no WiFi and other useless IMO features.
    BTW I am torn between some of the automation features being useful or not. Things that can help avoid an accident are OK, Self driving I'm not so sure.

    Oh well rant over.

    Enjoy Your new car.

    Hello Again
    I had a feeling that there might be a mess, I am still sorry to hear that it is a mess. Reuse the much, Why not it is paid for.

    Since I never had a backup camera I am not sure how much help they really are. Couldn't the dealer supply a loaner ?

    So both of You have caught something, What a shame.

    In case You or the others are curious

    The hospital food was OK. Once they let me eat solids :smiley: They have people that visit the rooms and take the meal orders from a selection. What was semi annoying was the there seemed to be no predictable time it was delivered, sometimes early and sometime a bit late.
    I broke down and tried the Mashed potatoes and gravy and I was somewhat surprised that the potatoes were not instant.

    One Menu I ordered
    2 pats of butter, for the potatoes.
    4 oz. Rice Pudding, Kozy Shack brand
    8 oz. Chicken Noodle Soup
    8 oz. Coffee with creamer, Fake Cream, Yuck
    4 oz. Chicken Marsala
    1/2 Cup Green beans
    4 oz. Mashed potatoes with gravy.
    1 slice orange slice.

    So not to bad. Friday 4-19s dinner.

    Have a Good Day
    Roger

    Hi
    Some chances of rain today. It is 52degrees outside and I turned the heat on to take the chill off of the rooms. Despite that I had my test Tuesday in the outpatient section of the hospital, I still do not have the results. Is that good or bad, I do not know. I shall call the doctors office again, when I called yesterday I was told I should get a phone call later that day.
