More blood letting and then a wonderful relaxing day.

Where are we today ?
         Pretty foggy this morning but not too cool and not raining, so thats good. After a nice walkabout the fog lifted around 8:30 this morning. The two Goose families by the pond and one set of babies spreading their wings, looks like flight training may soon be in order.
Gooses are growing so fast
      At 9 am got a call from my Doc. They want more of my blood, more tests they say. Hmm.. whats going on? Well was told the paper work was faxed to the Stratford Hospital this time for more testing. Shucks we were just in Stratford yesterday. So hopped in the car for another lovely country drive there, just over an hour. Hey at least I still have blood to give, maybe they selling it on the streets? Third time in as many weeks. The sooner we get things checked the better I will feel. Did not know anything is wrong, maybe not, (doc is pretty thorough) guess the blood work will help analyze things, we will see.
      Got that done, and stopped by the bank for cash that we might need, its been a while since we needed some. It's right across from the old city hall in Stratford, such a beautiful building. Too bad they don't make them like that anymore, they really have character.
even a mix of old and new buildings across from the city hall
         Back home in time for lunch, then just puttered around, a few more walkabouts and enjoy our books in the shade. Nice to take it easy again after a busy day yesterday.
         4 o'clock and nice Happy Hour with Emile and Monique then just threw together a tasty salad with some of our leftover chicken from the other night.
sure hit the spot again

     That was our almost relaxing day enjoying more nice sunny weather.
     Thanks for dropping today, was nice to see y'all again.

  1. Hopefully all is well. Very often lab results go askew and they retest and retest. Hang in there.

  2. My fingers are crossed for you that there was just not enough the first time or they spilled it in the lab. Who knows? I can't believe they didn't tell you what the tests were for. I'll even cross my toes!

    1. Thanks.
      They did tell me something on the phone but did not grasp what was said, so I just went for another nice drive. I enjoy driving anyway, doesn't mean much until we get the final results,

  3. It is always the waiting for results that is the worst. Just relax and let the system work itself out.

  5. If a person was ever squeamish about getting poked and prodded earlier in life, you darned well have to suck it up and just get used to it later on, that's for sure. We all seem to have our share of blood letting. Hope it's nothing serious.

  6. Hope those blood tests work out o.k., George. I've had retests on occasion for whatever reason and never did find out why. Don't care as long as it's all o.k.

    1. Thats right, think all will be fine, no need to worry about it. It is what it is.

  7. I do not like when my doctor orders more blood work but won't say exactly why. That should be against the law!

    The city hall in Stratford is gorgeous!

    1. I think that shed was smiling with all those goose puppies flopping around.
      You got the salad pretty close, plus chick peas, bean salad, red leaf lettuce, sunflower seeds, flax seed, grape tomatoes and shredded carrots, was pretty filling and tasty.
