TGIF

Feelings do not grow old along with the body. Feelings form
part of a world I don’t know, but it’s a world where
there’s no time, no space, no frontiers.

Paulo Coelho

Wow, this week has flown by quickly.  Can't believe Friday is already here.  Nothing much planned for this weekend...yet.  I can always change my mind.  When I went to the doctor yesterday, I saw that the bus stops right in front of TJ Maxx, and I have never been there. Maybe I can find the shorts I am looking for.

Speaking of the doctor.  No news yet.  I'd been under the impression that once I got all my tests done it was only a matter of setting the date, so I figured that would be done at my appointment yesterday.  Well,  I'd misunderstood.  In actuality, the doctor was giving me the opportunity to make up my mind whether or not I was going to have it done.  The other option would be to follow every six months with a Cat Scan to see if the nodule had grown. The decision was up to me, and I chose to go ahead with the biopsy. I've filled with worry far too long now.  I want to know.  So, he's going to put in for approval from the insurance company, and I will have the biopsy in July.  My insurance will carry through until July and then Medicare will kick in  

I'm a little confused about Medicare so if anyone can help, please let me know.  Because I am still working now, I have been told I have to apply for Plan B.  What's the difference with the other plans?  And will I need to get a second insurance to help defray costs?  I told you I was confused.  Now I probably have you confused as well. 

So, the rains came down again yesterday, and not a drop of it ended up in my bedroom.  Thank goodness they fixed that crack when they did.  I would really have had a mess to clean up. Now, myself, that's another story.  I was dishevelled and drenched by the time I got to work, and the worst of it was having to sit like that all day...with the  AC blasting.  They say we are in for a good weekend.  Let's all keep our fingers crossed.  We've earned some 'fun in the sun'.

Wishing  you all a sunny weekend.  Let's get out there and enjoy.

Part of the problem with the word "disabilities" is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. But what of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in constructive ways? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who cannot find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities.
