It has been a busy day.  I went to see my doctor early this morning since it has been so long since I’ve had my thyroid tested and I needed her opinion on my left hip.  I had enough sense not to eat before I went so that I could get a full blood test, cholesterol and all, which I haven’t had for several years.  And she confirmed that my hip is arthritic, that it will only get worse, that I’m doing all that I can, and when it gets bad enough, I’ll need a hip replacement, which she says I will love.  So I’m good for awhile longer and I’ll get my blood results next week.  Then I dropped all the graduation quilts off at Student Link because today is graduation day.  I didn’t have any students to tutor, so I took advantage of the quiet to get a nice nap before I headed over to graduation.  It was a beautiful ceremony and the students seemed to really like their quilts.  And so another school year closes.
