I went for my CTScan yesterday. Clear liquid fasting and pre-medication beforehand, how much fun is that? No, I did not need to be early to drink the potion of ugh, it was just the IV contrast. Even with the Prednisone and the benadryl, I still popped a hive on my hip. Means they kept me for an extra 30 minutes to make sure I didn't have a more severe reaction. Means they will be extra cautious next time. I did get to eat lunch at the cafe, salmon and a nice cauliflower mix, with a yummy bread roll. Had a terrible headache, came home and slept.
This morning I made cherry-cranberry sauce, two pint jars. I will freeze one. A little too runny, but good flavor, nice and tart. I have two more bags of cranberries, so I am looking at cranberry loaf recipes. The Instacart guy brought the sucky orange juice with calcium, so I need to cook with it as much as possible. Extra calcium makes my joints ache, and tastes like crap. I need to make sure I put a note in for NO No no calcium. I got maple bars, and now I feel sugar loaded. Probably why I am in no mood for chores.
Getting some laundry done and minor tidying. The step ladder came in, and while it is cold out, it is sunny. I keep stepping out and looking at the front flower bed, the patio gutters, and what I need to do weed-wise, but I simply cannot get moving outside. While I was in the laundry room, I looked up and saw I had not gotten down my pumpkin tea set or my gourd pitcher and squirrel. When I do the autumn flowers, those usually go on the baker's rack. I just spaced out on them. It doesn't really matter, but it makes me sad. I am getting the dryer vent cleaned out, and need to have the tub drain snaked, so I am probably going to skip roof lights this year too.
I got my indulgent Loki opera scarf and Loungefly purse. So marvelous. I should wrap them up for Christmas, they are definitely gift quality. Nice, nice, nice. The scarf is smooth as Loki's silver-tongued voice, as silky as one might imagine his touch to be. There, done fan-girling for the year. I realize what I spent on these things would have paid for roof light installation, but while I love my lights, I also love pretty things. It is a trade off, and one I am okay with this time around.
Now, about those leaves on the roof ... gah.
