Good evening from warm Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It’s 75 F right now. It did get to 84 F today.

Today was a good day. I had my doctor’s appointment this afternoon and I determined to fast until the appointment because I wasn’t weighing myself after I ate. I lost two pounds from this morning, so I’m a happy camper. It was a good thing I fasted as they took blood from me.

The doctor’s visit went well. We determined I’m not going to take any additional medication, especially as my body throws off medication. He agreed. I am getting physical therapy, though, to help my bones.

I asked him if my osteoporosis had downgraded since his letter to me after the bone density test was only osteoporosis. He confirmed I still have severe osteoporosis. I will also never have hip replacement, ever. My bones are transparent. It wouldn’t work to replace a hip on my fragile bones.

So, after a discussion about the state of my bones, we left the medication alone and I turned the topic to my feet and the tingling I have and asked about neuropathy. That led to the blood work. I also talked to him about my lack of appetite. I eat well for breakfast, but another meal upsets my stomach. Snacks are okay. He said we would address it after my colonoscopy at the end of the month or sooner as I’m also on a wait list for cancellations before then.

So, lots to talk about. I love my doctor. He listens and is genuinely concerned about his patients. He gave me 45 minutes today. I don’t know if it took that long. So, yes, I have a lot to be thankful for today.

I’m also thankful for the time I could be with you today and reading your posts. Again, you guys put me to shame. I know I’m not supposed to compare myself with anyone, but you’re all great writers.

I’m thankful that I also worked on Firestorm. Not a lot, but a few paragraphs. We’ll see about tomorrow, though it is a holiday, we’ll see what I accomplish tomorrow.

After the doctor’s appointment we went to A&W. I had a root beer float. Oh so good, especially on a hot day like today. I also had a mushroom Swiss burger. I just had my banana. I’m stuffed with just that much.

That’s what I’m thankful for today. How about you? What are you thankful for? Let me know in the comments. The image belongs to me.
