I just came in from watering the tomatoes and hydrangea in the front yard. It is so humid! Drip, drip, drip. I kept the dogs on the porch, so they were in the shade. Now it is inside to cool off and then out to the back to water the pots on the porch.
Mom has an appointment with a cardiologist - her old one left the practice, so she sees a new one today. And, mom wanted a pain pill this morning - she said her leg and hip have been hurting for "a while", but today it is worse. She has said nothing about pain. I wonder if she will need the wheelchair for the appointment.
Amy and I had a wonderful time wandering around Macy's looking for some black pants for me to wear to work a golf tournament. I don't want to wear any good ones and luckily I found a pair and on sale!!! Amy found two very cute white tops to wear under sweaters. She also looked at the mattress department upstairs because she is getting a new one. According to Real Simple magazine, always buy a mattress at a department store!
Ok, the drips are dry so it is time to go out and drip some more!
Ok, we went to the cardiologist. Now an echo is scheduled for Thursday at 11am, have to schedule blood work (because Mom hasn't done it) and a chest X-ray (I will bet to rule out pneumonia, because she wheezes and her Lasix needs to be upped - if she takes). Her doctor also asked her if her hearing was giving her trouble, but he didn't make any suggestions to her. I said that she needed to get her internist to give her a referral for an audiologist. Mom said "why can't my regular doctor check my hearing?" I said that is what an audiologist does. Mom said "He isn't a regular doctor?" When did mom become brain dead????????????????????????????????????????
Now I am fixing her dinner. She requested: rice, white beans and roasted tomatoes. I need a drink.
