It was fairly early – right after breakfast – when the first hospital representative called to get updates and information on my health records. She was very nice, and encouraging as well. I cleaned the upstairs before lunch then went to my dentist appointment for my implant. It was less than 30 minutes and I was out of there, with little distress. My mouth does taste a little like metal, though! Then someone called back at 3pm and confirmed!
I stopped at Walmart to grab a toaster. Mine just suddenly quit working! I just bought it about 20 months ago so I was very disgusted. It was NOT inexpensive, either. So I went back to purchasing one that was more basic – 2 slice, one button. I did send an email to Oster to inform them of my displeasure!

When I got home I finished cleaning – di the downstairs. So now my chores are all up to date. I have to be at the short-stay unit in the morning at 8am but surgery won’t be for a bit after that. There’s a routine before that. Don’t be surprised or concerned if there is no Word Garden for a few days. I’ll post once I get moving around and have something to write about!

TOMORROW is Peyton’s birthday. Seventeen! WHERE did the years go. He’s so grown up, and responsible, and hard working, and a very nice young man. I’m so proud of him! Love you, Peyton – wishing you a great celebration and a wonderful year!

November 2 – Tell about your first date with him. “It was in the fall of 1947. HE was discharged & came out to see me. He came as often as he could get his father’s car. Sometimes he came & brought his friend Russ Brown & his girlfriend Mary Jane Keister.” (Mom and Mary Jane were best friends until Mary Jane passed away.)
