Connie's Corner

Out of sorts...

I'm not feeling too chipper today. This morning at 7:45 I was at my dermatologist's getting my second suspicious mole removed and stitches out of the first one. This excision has been bothering me all afternoon. It's on my back near my shoulder blade and makes it impossible to get comfortable sitting or lying down. Every time I raise my arm, ouch. I just need to get through today, and tomorrow will be better, I'm sure.

When I woke up this morning, it was pouring rain with not even one little hint of daylight in the dreary looking sky. I thought I would be umbrella laden for my doctor's appointment, but around 7:30 the rain stopped although the clouds hung around. It has rained off and on all day long. At least it is cooler with the temps hanging in the mid 80's.

One of the nurses I saw this morning has a wonderful July 4th planned. On this holiday every year her family camps at Chimney Rock State Park near Asheville, North Carolina. She says it has waterfalls, hiking trails, lakes, cabins, even white water. Sounds wonderful. Thirty to fiftly members of her family travel there in the Blue Ridge Mountains every fourth of July for a reunion.

Well, my back is telling me no more so...

until next time...c
