1. Thanks to my sleep, wake up, stare, fall back asleep, wake up, pet Copper, stare, go back to sleep pattern I've developed at night, I did not blast out of the house early this morning to go to Kootenai Health, but I was on the road in time to arrive, wait a little while, have my blood drawn, and take my morning pills at an acceptable time. I have to wait until after my labs to take my pills -- haven't I explained this before? Yawn -- so I try to have my blood draw done before 8:00, my morning pill time, but Dr. Bieber assured me that if I took my pills by 9:00, all would be fine. And, that's pretty much what I did today. I felt much safer rocketing over to CdA having slept a little longer than usual.
2. Ever since the transplant, I've done my best to add something fun to medical appointments -- whether it's going to Great Harvest and Trader Joe's in Spokane or, as I've been doing lately, heading to the CdA Casino to spin some reels on Winning Wednesday.
I enjoyed a biscuit and gravy with hash browns and scrambled eggs for breakfast at the Red Tail when I arrived at the casino and then I hit the floor with one simple goal: BECOME A LEGEND!
I took a picture of the Legend card and texted it to Ed who (ha ha) told me he was very proud of me.
No jackpots today. No big wins. Just a solid breakfast, a couple hours of relaxation, and new blue card.
3. Lab results parachuted in on MyChart as I dug into breakfast and as I spun reels. The bloodwork looked solid and stable. More results to come -- and then, most likely next week, Nurse Jenn will send me a message about how we'll move forward.
