It's Me, Back Again.

Yes, it has been awhile since I wrote a blog. Once school gets going, I get too busy to do many fun things. But today I somehow had a "day off." Yesterday I went in to school and planned out the next three weeks - including making all the copies. I left a little undone when at six pm I wanted to go home. We have a teacher inservice day on Monday, so I'll finish up then. I'm trying to switch off weeks with one week planning and the next grading, so even with papers to grade I left them for next week. So I did a little cleaning, but otherwise have had a very restful day. Lots of Words with Friends and Hay Day, and a little knitting, and old movies on TCM.

Went back to the surgeon on Oct 2, expecting it to be the last visit. He had a whole group of medical students with him, and one came in to take my history and do a preliminary check up. Since he was new, he asked lots of questions. I talked about the difficulty swallowing, wheezing, and the fact my voice has not yet returned. When the doctor came in he decided to do another test, an endoscopy. Since I'll need tobe anesthetized, it's another trip to the hospital. It was supposed to be this Friday, but I've had a cold, so it will probably be postponed.

And guess how much fun it was trying to talk with a cold on top of my already horse voice? Yeah, about that much fun.
