Happy Day!

I had a mammogram last Thursday and got the call Friday that more pics were needed. I couldn't return the call until Monday morning. At that point, the earliest they could see me was a week; but then they called back because they had a cancellation. Today I went back, more pics were taken, doctor ordered an ultrasound, and my did they find cysts -- I counted at least 4. The radiologist came in and looked at the ultrasound and said that I was a "cyst maker" but no signs of cancer. Woohoo! He does want to check again in six months, but that's ok.
I was on a totally natural high when I left the medical office. I ran some errands and nothing bothered me...not the mercedes that parked way too close to me, not anything!

Yesterday I had lunch with my good friend, Kathy. We have known each other since high school and became good friends in college. So much fun to catch up with her. We only live about 30 miles apart -- we really should get together more often. My GPS told me that there was a Bakers Bros Restaurant close to where we were and I said maybe we will meet there next time. However, when I left, I decided to let the GPS take me there. I was directed to drive around a bit going past apartments into a very nice neighborhood, turn this way, turn that way, and now arriving at destination -- except that I was in front of someone's house with no restaurant in sight! GPS's are great -- but they are not perfect. I laughed and wondered why my GPS thought there was a restaurant there! Oh well, next time, we will pick a new place and I will look up the address before I go and just enter the address into the trusty GPS.
