Flying By

Wow, can't believe it's Friday already - wahoo!  I had something scheduled every single day before work this week, and I guess I was expecting it to be overwhelming by now.  But I slept through my appointments on Tuesday and the closing for my mortgage refinance, which was scheduled for Thursday, was postponed, so it hasn't been such a crazy week after all.  Later today I have another doctors' appointment, where I'm sure I will flunk my blood test, and I expect to hear from Ernie's doctor about her blood work as well. I have a feeling we'll both be on some new meds come Monday.

We had a full day of rain on Wednesday, and most of our pretty orange leaves are now soggy brown leaves in sticky piles on the ground.  There are lots of green trees yet, so I think we'll have another round of color, but right now we have green and bare and that's about it.  The older I get, the more I dread winter at this time of year.  It doesn't help that the guy we hired last spring still has not come to install the new bathroom fan.  We had to put him off after the hail storm until our insurance guy could come inspect the roof, then when we were ready to go the fan dude had filled his schedule.  If we don't get it done soon it won't get done until next year. Every time Walker calls him he says he'll be out in two weeks.  The two weeks go by, Walker calls again, and hears the same thing - two more weeks.  I'd hire someone else but you would not believe how hard it is to find someone reputable who is willing to do such a small job.  This guy is highly recommended but he won't go on the roof once it starts getting cold out.

  1. I hope your blood work comes out ok and I do hope they can do more for Emmie. Poor kitty. I have said so often when Spunky has been looking droopy and no energy I wish he could talk, so he could say what is wrong.

  3. It is frustrating when you want to get something done around the house and have to wait for the repair person, maintenance person, etc. I hope the fan does get installed this year!! Hoping your and Ernie's blood tests do come out good!

    enjoy the weekend!

  4. You are right, for some reason this week did just fly by. Sounds like the FAN guy is in demand. But surely he could fit you in. Good Luck continuing to deal with him. I think I'd look elsewhere. In the meantime, here's hoping the bloodwork for you and Ernie comes back okay. Take care.

  5. My week flew, too - and with it any words to put down on my blog. I finally got a new post done, but there's nothing outstanding about it!

    I remember winter in Minnesota - brutal. Especially International Falls!
