Doctor went good. No serious illness!!!
Just found out that my doctor has ordered a pelvic ultrasound- don't have an appointment yet but I'm already not looking forward to it.

Just found out my Uncle ( property owner- truck driver) is a diabetic so healthier eating/ diet change is in store. Right now I'm trying to do my best at preparing for that.

It's raining here this morning and it's going to rain Off and on all day long. With maybe a couple of short breaks. I wasn't planning on working outside today anyway so take that Mother Nature! You didn't mess my plans or schedule up today.
I do think it's so pretty after it rains, everything looks so fresh and clean and shiny. I just wish it wouldn't make the grass/weeds grow so fast. I don't mind pushing the lawn mower but I'm currently running low on gas and don't know when my Uncle is going to be here. I could always put the gas can into a wheelbarrow and walk 5 miles into town then walk 5 miles home.
That would be a sight though. I'm laughing my bottom off right now as I'm sitting in a chair thinking about that sight.

What? You are sitting out there with no transportation? That would be a problem for me. Do you have to wait for your uncle to come in so you can go to town for groceries, etc? A 10 mile walk in the heat we have in Texas would stop me in the first mile, gas be hanged. :lol:

My EE cross, Boo, must have laid her first egg today. When I collected the eggs I had a small egg in the nesting box. Plus Roo ( my BO rooster) has begun to crow- sounds a little broken right now though.
