pet scan day

Can I just say one thing? I am totally exhausted! I went for my PET scan early this morning and received an @#$ chewing from the scheduler for being five minutes late. Really? Come on! Low and behold.....they were running late anyway! I happily drank my barium since I was starving and then was finally escorted out to the trailer. The tech hit me with the crazy lead covered syringe full of radium.....or something and then left me there. A new tech came in to deliver a new set of two single doses of radium crud. I watched this with awwww. The 2 vials were encased in lead cylinders which were placed in a lead box that was maybe 12" by 12" and weighed 50 pounds......what the?!!! Learning something new every day on this journey. At 10:38am I called John to let him know I was on my way home and I was starving so we met at Red Robyn and had lunch....the barium just didn't cut it. Oh yah! I got a nealasta shot today as well. It stung like a hornets sting and left my iliac crests throbbing!
I did get the kids outside. Took them to the park and then Chatfield to swim for a while....it was good for the kids. I got home at 4:30pm and crashed. Going to bed early....Love ya all!

  1. Maybe it's like some Superman power source and that is why it has to be in the lead cylinders. Now, just waiting to hear the great results from your PET scan.

    You Know You're Having a Bad Day When...

    Your horn sticks on the freeway behind 32 Hell's Angels motorcyclists.

    You've been at work 3 hours before you notice that your fly is open or your blouse unbuttoned.

    Your twin sister forgets your birthday. (This is especially funny!!!! since ur my twin hahaha)

    Your birthday cake collapses from the weight of the candles.

    You call the suicide prevention hotline and they put you on hold.

    You have to sit down to brush your teeth in the morning.

    Everyone avoids you the morning after the company office party.

    Your income tax refund check bounces.

    The bird singing outside your window is a vulture.

    You wake up and your braces are stuck together.

    Your blind date turns out to be your ex-wife/husband. EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!!

    You put both contacts into the same eye.

    Your doctor tells you that you're allergic to chocolate.

    You have to borrow from your Visa card to pay your Mastercard.

    Nothing you own is actually paid for.

    The health inspector condems your office coffee maker. AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!!

    The Gypsy fortune teller offers to refund your money when she sees your future.

    People think that you're 40 and you're only 25.

    When the doctor tells you are in fine health for someone twice your age.

    You call your spouse and tell them that you'd like to eat out tonight and when you get home, your find a sandwich on the front porch.

    You start to put on the clothes that you wore home from the party last night...... and there aren't any.

    It costs more to fill up your car than it did to buy it.
