It’s All A-OK . . .
Jan and I headed out this morning about 9:30, way too early for me normally, but we had a full day of stuff planned.
Our first stop was about an hour away at Brandi and Lowell’s to trade out trucks. Lowell had been nice enough to offer us the use of his Toyota Tundra for the day since we had a lot of driving planned and still no AC in our truck.
Getting down to the Webster area about 11:30, our first stop was at Twin Peaks to have lunch. Unfortunately our favorite waitress, Lauren, was off today so we didn’t get to see her, but our lunch was as good as always.
After lunch, and after a quick client visit, we headed over to Texas Oncology for the real purpose of our trip down here; Jan’s six month checkup after her breast cancer operation.
Based on her post-op visit right before we left Houston last May, she figured it would take a couple of hours or more, but they called her in right on time, and she was out in 40 minutes.
The Doctor told Jan everything looks good with no problems. Her blood work was normal and she has not been having any of the possible side-effects from the Tamoxifen that she’s taking. The Doctor just wants to see her again in six months.
Insert ‘sigh of relief’ here.
Our next stop was down the road a piece to the Bucee’s on League City Parkway to pick up some of their great Cranberry Nut muffins. Turning into the place I was really surprised to see their price for diesel.
You just never have an RV with an empty fuel tank around when you need one.
Our next stop was the home of Bob and Maria, pretty much our oldest friends here in the Houston area, who we’ve known since the mid-80’s. After checking their new dog we all headed over to Monterey’s Little Mexico for dinner and talk. A lot of talk. About two and a half hours of talk.
Hey, we had a lot of catching up to do.
After saying our goodbye’s and getting our hugs from Bob and Maria, Jan and I stopped off at our storeroom to pick up our gate guarding stuff, i.e. our canopy, tarp, big fan, misting system, etc. Wanted to have it handy since we hope to get a gate sometime next week.
Before leaving the area we stopped by Chris and Linda’s for a few minutes, and found Linda had a warm Blueberry Bundt Pound Cake to take with us.
Great! Now we have muffins AND pound cake.
Finally about 8:30 we got our truck back at Brandi and Lowell’s, and headed home, arriving about 9:30pm.
A long day, but one with good news, good friends, and great family.
