From Mud Season To Spring!

Wednesday the day started, gray, cold and damp. I was off to the local hospital for blood work, and I had an early morning appointment. I was to be there by 7 o’clock to have the blood drawn shortly after. My only problem was I slept in! I woke at 6:35 and like a person discovering a fire on their stove (thinking back to Easter!) I jumped up and raced to my bathroom. I was happy that I had laid out my clothes, my brush and tooth brush and toothpaste the night before, as I simply leapt into my clothes and brushed my teeth before grabbing my jacket and racing out the door.

I drove a normal speed to the hospital, all the while watching the clock, and managed to arrive right on time. I got out of the car and headed to the front door of the hospital, when I saw a man staring at me. His eyes were filled with laughter. I checked to see if my zipper was open or something, and saw that my jacket was inside out!

I stopped to correct my jacket and mumbled something about it being early, before I escaped into the hospital. I had my blood test and then headed over to my Weight Watchers class, but today there was no one there. I was quite surprised. Three other people arrived and we all asked each other the same question. “Is this Wednesday?” Of course it was, and after another half an hour, a substitute woman arrived. She had no keys, no idea what to do to set up and really was not reassuring at all.

We all did our Post-Easter weigh in (we will not ask!) and then about 45 minutes later the class began. I love our teacher, Pam. She is just marvelous! We had our class and then I said good-bye to my friends.

I called Hubby to ask about getting our mail or not, and he told me the doctor had already called with my blood test results. Now that was a surprise! Doctors never call with the results that quickly, but he did, and told me that I needed to adjust my medications.

You know it made me feel good that when I mentioned to my doctor that I wasn’t feeling well, that he’d actually listened to me.

Wednesday afternoon, SPRING arrived at my house with 75 degree (F) temperatures! My little flowers started to bloom

Even the Spygold Apple buds are pushing!

and I swear the grass started to green up! Hubby and I are in a beautiful bright spot on a hill and so when the temperatures outside go up, the air conditioners go into the windows! Wednesday we did our bedroom and the family room.

Viva Spring! I’m ready for you now!!!
