Be Good to Yourself

I had an early start today, I had my annual exam before 8:30 a.m. I don't want this to be a sermon, just a reminder. Get you pap and your mam! Do it! Granted it is not the most fun I've had on a Friday morning but it is something I consider so important. I have a great connection with my doctor and I am sorry for the rest of the patients that follow my appt. because Dr. Margaret and myself just always have a lot to talk about. I have been losing weight, my blood pressure is excellent and she is just so happy with me. I have a family history of breast cancer and diabetes so I am proactive with my health. If you are skipping the pap and the mam- well, shame on you! You are not being fair to yourself or to those who love you. I guess this is part of my Friday morning me time. Anyway, I am good for the year. I love Dr. Margaret but she did bring up something today. that made me queasy. I will be 50 in December so at the next annual we will talk about the colon thing. Heaven help me.

That is why Friday is called "Fun Friday!"

Troy had the "colon thing" a few years ago...I think he enjoyed it...Plus you can make good jokes like "It was a real pain in the ..." and stuff!
