It is July in Oklahoma and HOT.   My thermometer shows 103 -  I know it registers high but it still is HOT.  There was a lot of humidity today so my knees and joints hurt all day.    I keep asking Bart where this dry hot weather I was promised is:)     I don't want to wish for that either because that means drought.   Which Oklahoma has finally recovered from.

I tried to do stuff, then rest, then do stuff.   Got my wash done, folded and put away.    Cut out the cow silhouette for my wall hanging project. 

This afternoon, I saw Dr. Toy.   Told him my knee woes.   Will see him in two weeks and he wants to get a copy of my PET Scan when I get it.

A lovely day in Lawton Ok.  It is 93 on my thermometer but it is late afternoon and probably has reached its peak.   At least the humidity is down and my joints are feeling MUCH better now.  The knees being the worst.

I saw Dr. Aiku today about the CTScan on my lungs.  It seems I have a mass in my upper right lobe.   I will need a pet scan and then a biopsy to see how we proceed from here.    I have decided not to panic and told them that I just need this all cleared up by the end of September when I go on my tour of England and Wales.     (I don't think that this is asking too much:)   

Please pray for me.

Home all day.   Good thing.  I am sore.  I did get a lot done though by "nickel and diming" it.

Got the Wales trip ready to finalize, did dishes, got the corner of the bedroom that got wet, clear so that the fan can get everything dry.  (A good time to go through clothes in the dresser as I had to take out the drawers to slide it aside.)

Wisconsin is sure in the news these days.  Yesterday the elephant, today the plane crash.

Tried to call my doctor today, but, of course, they are all out for the holiday, so I have to wait until Wednesday.   Just musing these days, and trying to figure out if those statin drugs made my muscles  so sore?   I am not really good at following "trails"   (Need my sweetheart).   But wonder if those statin drugs did more damage than thought?

I give myself chores every day, otherwise I would probably just sleep.   Nicky likes that actually, but I am not here to serve him.  I am trying to convince him that he needs to do his business in the backyard.   I am not going to be able to continue taking him for walks.   My poor baby might burst:(

I couldn't believe seeing the Baraboo elephant taking her stroll the same day that we went to see the elephants at the Endangered Ark Foundation. 

I am still trying to figure out how to send pictures.    I MISS PICASSA.  I could do anything with those pictures.

A sore day.   Lovely Mass and I visited at coffee afterwards.    Bart and Barb had me letting the pups out while they were gone for a chunk of the day.    I love doggies.

I am praying top hear from Debra at Dr. Aiku's office, but don't have a lot of hope as the 4th of July is Tuesday and you know how that goes. 

I had such hope in that scope last Tuesday.   Well, perhaps they can reschedule after they review the CT Scan.   I like Bart's theory that perhaps the shadow on the lung is spit:)   Love his humor.
