My Journey

RE Appointment Today!!!
Monday, Jul. 21, 2003 @ 11:09 a.m.

In 2 1/2 hours my husband and I are going to see our RE!! The doctor's office called this morning and said that there were some cancellations so we could come in today instead of August 11. I rescheduled and left a message at my husband's work to called me. He justed called me back and was happy that we will now be able to have this consultation before our trip to Washington

The only bad thing is that I am getting nervous about what the doctor will say. My body is feeling a bit tense. I'm going to try to relax and watch a little TV while I knit my afghan.

I'll be back later today with news of the appointment.
