YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS........

I've been going to a dermatologist off and on for a few years for some rough spots on my skin and a few other things. 

This year they have a new thing where they put a lotion on you and you go under a light for 15 minutes to prevent cancer. They do your arms, your chest, your back and your face. It was rather interesting but very time consuming. He always overbooks. You go back for each one, they are not all done on the same day. 

Anyway, what I am going to share with you has nothing to do with these new treatments, I've been to him before for something else. I've had a small spot on the inside of my right arm just below the elbow. He has frozen it in the past but it did eventually change and he tested it for cancer. It did show that it was cancer so he decided to remove it and I agreed with that. 

So I went in and he removed it. I had some several stitches and also staples put in to hold it together. I had to go back in to have the staples removed 10 days later. When the girl took out the stitches she noticed that the area was a little pink which meant it might be infected. She called me and told me that I should have it checked out at urgent care. 

I did that and it was definitely infected. Unbelievable. This should not have happened. I was taking very good care of it. I went to urgent care on Thursday and they gave me a prescription and wanted to see me back in a few days so I'm going back today.

I hope that they think it is better too because they talked about sending me to the hospital. I can't imagine what they would do. 

So again, I would appreciate your prayers.

1. What's something you wanted to do this summer that you never got around to doing? 

Travel to see Amber and Dylan in Montana. My health issues kept us home. We usually go three times a year. 

However, they will be here in a few weeks. I can't wait to see them. 

2. Were you the student who sat in the front row or hid in the back of the class? If you could go back and take one high school class again just for fun, which would it be? 

Honestly I don't remember where I sat. 

I think it would be Home Economics. 

Does anyone remember that class?

3. What characteristics do you think are essential in a good teacher (this can be applied to anyone who teaches, not just classroom teachers)?

Listening to the questions that students have when they raise their hand. Everyone should be treated equal. 

4.  September 2nd is National Grits Day. Have you ever eaten grits? Are you a fan? If so how do you like yours? Would people describe you as 'having grit'? 

I'm not sure if I have ever had them. 

Looking up what "having grit'' means, I may have had that years ago but I don't seem to have it now. 

5. What's something you're never too old or too young to enjoy? 

I'm really not sure how to answer this one. One thing I can think of are dogs. I do enjoy them. 

6. Insert your own random thought here. 

Happy 45th Birthday to our son in law Dylan.

His Birthday was yesterday. 

We love you so much.
