Today was a not expected day. I had to get up with hubby because I had to take him to work so I could have the car for therapy and a doctor appointment. We went to what is now his favorite place to go every morning for coffee and breakfast, Kum & Go. I got a citrus soda and an omelet in a flour tortilla and hubby got a flavored coffee and a breakfast sandwich.
We drove back to hubby's office and I dropped him off with a nice kiss goodbye, then headed back the way we had come as my therapist, Steve, is in the exact opposite direction one mile past the house. But as I was going back up Austin Bluffs, we came to a stand still. An accident just happened and was right in the middle of the road. Pretty bad accident by the looks of it, one car didn't have an axle in the rear and the car was facing the wrong direction. There was a lane open on one side so we were all nice driver's and lined up to keep going. The cops showed up before I got past and started directing traffic. Looked like all the people got out of their cars so were not banged up too badly.
Therapy was good. I talked to Steve about not being able to eat much, all the new aversions I am having. I have lost 8 pounds in the last couple of weeks, I'm down to 192 now. Since I am eating healthy food when I do eat, and I am taking a multivitimen, he said that I shouldn't worry too much about it. Maybe I should check out some vegetarian dishes since a lot of my food aversions seem to be with meat. Nothing tastes good anymore since I started this medication about 5 months ago. I can't eat ground hamburger or ground chicken or anything ground. If it is in the form of a patty, like a hamburger patty, I can only eat a couple of bites out of it before I start thinking what it is made of and I can't eat anymore of it. Most of the time I am only eating a little at a time. We talked about it and he said we will keep an eye on it.
I went over to Holly's and dropped off 3 chickens. I didn't stay because I was sick with this cough and didn't want her or Abbey to catch it. I left and went to Einstein Bagels to get a veggie bagel sandwich with potato salad for lunch.
I headed back along the way to go to my bone density scan at the medical center but then there was another accident. This one closed down the road and we had to wait in line to get up to the point where the police were telling us to make a U turn. I had to take an alternate route to get to the medical center.
I checked in at the medical center and took a seat. I started reading my book and shortly later they called me back. But as soon as I got back, the technician explained that the MRI I just had last week with contrast dye made it so I couldn't get the bone scan for at least another week, the dye interferes with the machine's ability to scan so she took me back to her office and booked me an appointment for after I get back from Las Cruces, NM. Hubby and I are going there to see our new granddaughter, Shay Li, who was born on the 15th. We also get to see 15 month old Li An. We are so excited!
I came home and rested for awhile, then had to go pick hubby up from work early since I had a Red Hat function tonight. Today is Fat Tuesday so us Red Hatters were going to iHop to eat pancakes.
I met the rest of the Red Hatters at iHop and there was a lot of us! We got settled and started to gab, talking about the trips some of them were taking and the trip in August to the big convention. We ordered and ate and talked some more. It was a fun time.
Once I got home, hubby and I had to do our post filing bankruptcy course. So we spent the next 3 hours doing that course and will have to sign on tomorrow to talk to the counselor and get our certificate.
