What a long day. I left the house this morning at 11:30 and got home this evening at 11:30. I’m out used to being gone from home that long.
First stop was at the clinic to have an ultrasound of my neck. I always find it interesting how the different technicians do the ultrasound. This one did the sides of my neck but didn’t do the center of it. I have had others that do the center but not the sides and some that do both.
Next up was a stop at a different clinic for a blood draw. I got the results of two of the three tests they did today back and my TSH was 2.7 which is exactly where I like it. Not sure why it raised a point from last time but grateful it did. I take the same dose of medication at the same time everyday but get different results from it most times.
I then went to Chipotle for lunch. It is my reward to myself for going to the medical stuff. I think Chipotle is my favorite place to eat.
I then drove to KC and met a friend for coffee. We hadn’t seen each other for quite a while but are always able to pick up where we left off last time. We visited for two hours. Does my soul good to have deep conversations like I had with her today.
Next up was dinner with Nicole and Geoff. Mary wasn’t able to join us but Nicole, Geoff and I enjoyed a nice dinner. I’m glad I made reservations as the restaurant had a 30 – 45 minute wait and we were there at 5:20. It was a hopping place. The food was good and the service nice.
Nicole and Geoff went me to the football game. They stayed for the first half and got to see Tagen play one play. It was cold tonight. I’m grateful I remembered to take a blanket as the bleachers were aluminum and cold. I never got really cold but cold enough for me. The restroom was very warm so I went in there and warmed up.
Emporia got beat bad again but at least they scored twice tonight. They ran the clock for most of the second half so it went fast. It was Tagen’s last high school football game.
After the game I waited for Tagen and he rode home for me. He wanted to eat at Raising Cain’s so we went north a bit to find one. He said the food was good. It was nice to have company on the ride home. I hadn’t gotten to talk to him much since he moved out a month ago so it was nice to catch up with him.
It was a fun day. I always appreciate getting to spend time with Nicole and Geoff and getting to see my friend and spend time with Tagen was great. I will be tired tomorrow but it was worth it.
I woke up in the middle of the night freezing. I had opened my windows as it was warm yesterday. The cold front came in a day earlier than the forecast predicted. I don’t think it got out of the high 40’s today. By the time I got home tonight, it was 37. Yikes! I’m not mentally prepared for cold weather.
Going to call it a day and get to bed. I’m tired tonight but grateful I got to spend time with some people I love today.
Grateful for a safe trip for all my travels today, grateful I got to see Tagen’s last football game, and grateful my TSH levels are right where I like them to be.
