Sunday News #28
Feeling
I’m feeling better than I did last week. I’m still feeling a little depressed, but not as bad as I was feeling.
Blogging
This week on the blog:
Reading
I haven’t read at all this week. I’ve been too busy going to the chiropractor, OBGYN, the vet for one of my cats, unpacking and organizing, and going back and forth to IKEA.
This week, I’m going to try to do some reading. I have A DRESS OF VIOLET TAFFETA by Tessa Arlen, MISS ALDRIDGE REGRETS by Louise Hare, and THOUSAND MILES by Bridget Morrissey out from the library.
Listening
I’m still listening to my 80s playlist while I’m in the car. As I was searching for songs to add to my playlist, I found a song that I used to love to listen when I was a teen. It’s “El Shaddai” by Amy Grant. It’s one of my favorites.
Watching
Corey and I are still watching ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING. I wish we’d not started watching until season 2 was completely aired. It’s so frustrating to wait between each episode.
We started watching the new season of American Horror Stories and that first episode was SOOOOO creepy.
We’re up to season 4 episode 4 of STRANGER THINGS. Holy crap!
Loving
I love Corey so much. Friday was a hard day. I found out that my LASIK has to be postponed because my primary care physician’s office isn’t communicating with my surgeon. I tried to help by going to his office and see if I could get the info they need to send my surgeon. The problem is that today’s a holiday in Utah so everyone left early on Friday. (To be honest, it’s not my doctor’s fault. The office staff are difficult to work with.) Anyway, Corey took me to Baskin Robbins so I could get some pink bubblegum ice cream. That’s love.
Wanting
I want to get things worked out with my doctors so my LASIK doesn’t get postpone anymore than it already has.
Needing
I need to rest today. I’m pooped from everything that’s been going on this week.
How was your week? Anything exciting happen?
The lack of communication thing is a shame! I hope you can proceed onto your LASIK soon. And yay for caring husbands! 👌
Thanks, Roberta! 😀 I’ll be much more diligent this next week to make sure everything that needs to happen for me to proceed with my LASIK surgery gets done. I didn’t this past week because I thought both offices had it under control–clearly not.
I love the El Shaddai song! Hope the lasik gets done soon. Have a great new week. Here’s my Sunday Post: https://bonniereadsandwrites.wordpress.com/2022/07/24/sunday-post-pass-the-peppers/
Thanks, Bonnie! 😀 I love “El Shaddai” too. It’s just a pretty tune and a great message.
Communication between various medical offices has been atrocious for us too; I hope you can get it worked out! It’s frustrating to gear up and look forward to having a procedure done, then it’s postponed. Pink bubble gum ice cream! I’ve never seen that anyway. I’m much more of a pralines and cream type. Nothing much new here–heat wave coming this week, ugh.
Thanks, Margaret! 😀 I love pink bubblegum ice cream. I always have. Corey thinks it’s disgusting, lol. I’ll be much more diligent this next week to make sure everything that needs to happen for me to proceed with my LASIK surgery gets done. I didn’t this past week because I thought both offices had it under control–clearly not. Good luck with the heat wave!
Glad you’re feeling better this week.
Ugh…I need to catch up on Stranger Things and I want to start Only Murderers soon.
Have a good week!
Thanks, Alicia! 😀 I hope you enjoy catching up on STRANGER THINGS and enjoy ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING as much as I have.
Dealing with doctors and insurance can be such a pain, especially when we are eager to get moving! Hope it all gets sorted out for you SOON!
Ahhh I wish I had someone to treat ME to ice cream after a tough day! Corey is a good guy!
Thanks, Jinjer! 😀 The ice cream was a nice surprise. I wasn’t expecting it.
You’ve been busy. I know when we have a bunch of medical types of appointments it’s tiring. Good luck on a better week ahead.
Anne – Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
Thanks, Anne! 😀 I know you understand with the appointments. I appreciate the well wishes!
My doctor back home has now ordered the same set of tests twice to be done while we’re in Montana and the facility swears they haven’t gotten anything. I worked healthcare for 20+ years. This is so frustrating for me. I always tried to stay on top of everything and make life as easy as I could for my patients and anyone else I interacted with. I share your irritation.
I hope you get everything worked out soon!
I’m sorry you’re dealing with communication issues between your doctors too. Sometimes, you find a truly helpful person in medical administration, but they’re few and far between. It sounds like you were one of the good ones. 😀
I loved Amy Grant’s song too, I haven’t heard it in forever. I hope you are able to get things settled soon, with the doctor, with your new place, so you can get more rest, reading, and relax more! Have a great week.
I’m glad I shared “El Shaddai” this week so you could listen to it again too. 😀 Thank you for the well wishes. We’re almost done with unpacking, thankfully. Maybe by next weekend.
Sounds like you had a busy week. I’m glad you are feeling better. I hope this is a good week for you.
Thank you, Yvonne. I appreciate the well wishes. 😀
I’m so glad you’re feeling better! And yes Stranger Things 4 is a TRIP.
I love Baskin robbins lol. That can make anything better. 🙂
Hope you have a great week.
Thanks, Greg! 😀 Yes, Stranger Things 4 is crazy. I love seeing Jamie Campbell Bower. He’s such a great actor. And, yes, Baskin Robbins definitely makes anything better.
I had a very light reading week, too. I think I missed your mid year freak out so I’ll go check that out, too!
Some weeks are like that, aren’t they? Here’s to more reading this week for the both of us. 😀
Hi Jenni! I hope that you are able to get your LASIK surgery all sorted out soon – so sorry you are having some delays with this! It’ll be such a relief once everything is in order to go.
Hope that you have an amazing week ahead!
– Sara and Olivia
Thanks, Sara! 😀 I hope you and Olivia have a fantastic week too.
Amy Grant’s voice is so beautiful. I love Mary’s Song from her Christmas album. And Stranger Things is going to get even Holy Crap-pier, believe it or not. So enjoy! Hope you have a good week 😊
I agree. Amy Grant has a beautiful voice. I love Mary’s Song from her Christmas album too. 😀 Corey and I just finished season 4 last night and WOW!
I’m so glad you’re feeling a bit better. Oh wow, Baskin Robbins Pink Bubble Gum Ice cream is the best!! Lucky you. I haven’t had it in years, but we used to always get it as kids. And I haven’t heard El Shaddai in years!! I also love that song, thanks for sharing it.
Thanks, Wendy! 😀 Ha ha. Yep, I basically a large child. Whenever I go to Baskin Robbins, I usually order pink bubblegum ice cream. Most adults opt for more adult flavors, lol. To each their own.
Happy Monday! I’m so glad you are feeling a bit better. Ooh i do love a bit of 80’s music!
Thanks, Becky! 😀 I hope you have a great week!
