I know I'm pretty far down South, but it's cold down here this morning. We're at 25F and the heater is out in the house. So I have a little box heater in my room and it makes it OK. I don't look forward to summer here, but spring would be a welcome relief.
I've got a doctor's appointment today with a gastroenterologist. I was telling Andi that in the last eight months I had lost about 42 pounds. Since I haven't changed my diet and my activity is about the same my GP wants to run all sorts of test. I haven't weighed what I weigh now since my early 20's. What makes me mad is I've given away all my good clothes that used to fit me before I first got here and gained so much weight. The shirts and stuff are still OK, but I guess I'll have to buy a couple of pairs of new jeans so I won't have to tighten my belt so much. So I'll see the doctor today and he'll probably order test or procedures that I know I won't want to go through, but what can you do.......
George is still doing good. For being over a hundred in human years he's still yappy as can be and still runs and jumps everywhere. I watch the shows about dog breeds on Animal Planet sometimes. After seeing all the health problems some dogs can get, I guess I'm pretty lucky with George. I guess you would call him a mut, but I'm happy with him.
I'm still waiting for one of my brothers to get things together with me moving out of FMom's house. Honestly, I can't wait. I'll be very happy to be on my own again. I love my brothers and sister, but a little privacy goes a long way.
Other than that everything is going well. I hope everyone is doing fine.
