Lights inside

 Today is gray, dark and wet so having greenery with lights on the stair railings is nice...just enough light to keep one safe on the stairs and no need to have regular lights on!!

Tigger has decided  that a blue rubber band is much more fun than the painter's tape ball...  Jack ( gray stipped older one) just thinks both are of no interest.

Bob and I wrapped and boxed etc. the things for our adopted seniors... one thing still to arrive!

 

All my symptoms...swollen feet, shortness of breath, cough etc. worried us enough to call my cardiologist this morning. When the nurse called back it was to direct me to the hospital for chest x-rays and lab tests ASAP and an appointment tomorrow for an echo cardiogram. 

It seems like the whole deal took forever...some glitch in my Humana Insurance caused a big delay. They had my birthdate wrong. But being at the end of the day also made things go slower!!

When I went on the computer a little while ago the test results were already available. Not that I know what they mean... not until I ask the doctor!!

Stairway railing lights are really nice. OK: rubber bands aren't good for dogs or cats to play with; they swallow them and the bands tangle up the intestines as they try to stretch, causing sections of bowel blockage, and the vet having to cut out sections that aren't viable anymore. But, presuming you aren't chewing on the rubber band, glad you went in for x-rays and tests. Much better than waiting. Since your birthdate was messed up, you might need to mention that with every encounter, for maybe a year... Linda in Kansas

Don't let Tigger chew on that rubber band-it could cause a big problem if he accidentally swallowed it.

Fingers crossed that test results aren't too frightening.
