It has been a very full day I left at 8 am and just returned at 2 pm.

I had my I have had so much good fortune that the sun shone on me so it almost blinded me with Goodness! As The kids were going to get ready to leave I was able to get in for my Mammogram at 8:45. The buss pulled up and I drove off. Then to the well visit. At each appointment I got a shady spot and arrived right on time. I them got another shady spot right at the door of the apocacary shop and left on perscription and picked up another.I followed the "Goose"...There was a hearing aide center next door and I steped in. I asked them it they had any cool gadgets for children with hearing aides. She returned with THREE books, a stuffed oil and a highlighter and tape of songs? FREE? Asked I ...Yess Bless him with them...total stranger:) I asked her then about adult hearing aides and if they used my insurance carrier. She is a service provider for them. I may one day get the hearing aides I need. I took her name and thanked her.

On to the flight of the "Goose" ( the spirit)

I drove to a Ross store and there saw a old time friend of 20 yrs. She was once an employee of my sisters at the tailor shop. We had a nice visit. Our husbands once worked togeather in a long ago day.

I had called for another appointment for a bone density test My Doctor had ordered, and got in at 1 pm today. Drove over and got a spot right near the door! :) Test finished and long drive home. All these things took place up in the city we used to live in. We had a home there 16 years and sold it to be able to bring Dash home. That is how we wound up here wher we are. This is a much nicer building but not in as nice of a city.

Kids will be here in 45 minutes. The day flew.

I had a wonderful visit with a few different folks. Had a nice healthy dose of adult conversation. Test results will come later this week.
