I was finally able to capture a photo of this young pileated woodpecker who has been cutting down the big pine branches in my front yard. This branch is going to be falling soon.

I had Ron take this picture of my hands side by side. They feel so much better than before, but some people have said they look worse. Yep, they look disgusting, but at least they still work enough to let me do some of the things I enjoy doing.
I went to see Dr. VanDellen for my 4 month checkup. Appt. at 8:30. Arrived at 8:10, and was out by 8:50. Everything seems good for the moment. She didn't have my blood results, went out to check on them. I told her the only thing I had saw that was high was my Hemocrit Level. I will try and post my recent blood tests soon. -

It probably wasn't a smart thing to have this appointment the day after Thanksgiving, but I did, and it's over. Ron drove me down there. My appointment was at 8. Had two injections in the top of my right foot. Owww! The needle stick is not what hurts, it's the medicine that is shot it. And this time, my joints are black and blue, and it's painful to walk. Super sore all day, but hopefully by tomorrow the burning won't be so bad.

Bad Day - I hurt and I'm super tired. My left shoulder and my back. Didn't really get a chance to lay back down on the couch or in bed.
Good Day - Kayden and Kinslie came over to spend the night. They are getting so big.
Kayden is going to be 7 soon, and Kins is already going to be 5 -

I don't know why I even went to see Dr. Guertin for my 4 months followup today. My appointment was at 10:30, and I arrived ten minutes early. I wasn't called back until 10:45, and sat in that room for at least 30 minutes. I heard the Dr., and what sounded like a friend faintly talk about matters other than health. I forgot to bring my cell phone in with me so I couldn't check the time. The Dr. came in, asked how I was feeling, checked her notes about my issues, and read through my MRI results. Didn't have the most recent one with contrast, so she stepped out for a few minutes to have someone find it and print it. Everything is good. Cyst gone. I want to import them here, but don't have time right now...
Anyway, I didn't get out of that office until 11:40! An Hour and ten minutes, and I didn't take up more than 20 minutes of the Dr.'s time. Plus had to pay $. It was 11:fricken 40, and I was supposed to pick Logan up from school at 11:45, and I'm at least 40 minutes away. I got there at 12:10. Took the expressway. I hate it when Dr.'s do that to their patients. Our time is valuable too.
Hopefully I don't have to go back there. Ron went to see Dr. Zieger today for his yearly checkup for his hips.
