I needed that last post to be gone so I am creating a fresh new post for today. In a few minutes I am off to get my annual mammogram. There is a history of breast cancer in my family so I have been getting one since I was 32. They don't bother me anymore but there is always that little feeling of 'what if?' Anyway... Norbert is asleep in a box and I have not done much today except two loads of laundry and clean the bathroom. We seem to be out of everything so I need to get some groceries. Such excitement.
Ealier today I was mentioning in a comment that next month I have been blogging 10 years. 10 years! Not all on the same blog but 3 different ones. The funny thing is I have not really looked back at what I have written. Maybe I should. Sometimes we forget how far we have come. Or maybe it will remind me how far I have to go.
OK, gotta go. Mammogram time!
Addendum - I have a deadly serious question. I have never felt weather any colder than -12 C. So tell me, when you take your dog outside to pee and it is -40 C how does that actually work? If you can throw boiling water into the air and it instantly freezes how do dogs manage?
Good luck on your exam. I will be going for a full physical soon. Until you get the results that hopefully say "everything is fine", it's always scary.
ReplyDeleteYour days sound like mine. Not the most exciting, sure, but hey, at least I don't have major problems in life. So it's all good.
I hardly ever go back and read my old blog posts either. Isn't that odd?
ReplyDeleteWell. Here's hoping the mam went fine and you have at least that tiny bit more of peace in your mind.
Good luck getting squished!
ReplyDeleteHIlary's comment is hilarious. I can't beat that.
ReplyDeleteYou've been blogging 10 years!?! You should definitely look back at all that content. Congratulations you internet pioneer.
Wishing you good health.
ReplyDeleteSo, I go out walking with Molly til it hits -30C after that, she only goes out to do her business in the yard. When it's that cold, she's scurrying to get it done. She usually ends up whining because it gets cold on the toes in no time, especially if she spins around a few times, as dogs often do!
ReplyDeleteI find it hard to comprehend never having felt that kind of cold! Lol! Now, talk heat? I know nothing of temps higher than 40C and I felt those for the first time last summer in Salt Lake City. How do people breathe?!
LOVE Hilaries comment - and echo it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever had a mammogram. No history in my family and I do self exams. Maybe this year will be the year I get my first mammogram.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea about the -40C weather because it only get down to -14C here and even that not very often.
When you told me ten years today, I was amazed. That's very cool.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your exam.
OMG, I am laughing my ass off about the dog peeing question!! And the answer is...I have no idea. I've always had cats.
ReplyDeleteI love Hilary's comment! It's exactly what happens! Good luck with that. And well done on the 10 years.
ReplyDeleteMammograms...meh. Hope it went well.
ReplyDeleteIf you find out, please let us know the answer to the dog-peeing question!!
Dogs manage just fine at -40C, although they do manage it very quickly.
ReplyDeleteI hate mammograms because they hurt my boobs. And I'm always scared. But the tech told me last time, there's only one thing worse than finding out you have breast cancer, not finding out you have breast cancer. Put things in perspective.
On the dog being outside in -41C, just don't let them lick anything or get to close to metal things when they pee. Check to see if the dog pees ice cubes and then let us know.
ReplyDeleteYou are not the only one that has fears of a mammogram going bad. I often think I'm going to be the one that ends up in the evening news with a crushed tit. ahahahahaaa!
Oh, also to let you know. You have never spammed me darlin. It's a few guys from Taiwan and India.
How did the squishing go?
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Linda :o)
PS: I can still read the back posts. Not sure if you wanted them out there or not, but the backlog is still available.
