Waiting and Walking

This week is my week off chemo but I was off to see my other Dr, my OBGYN for my annual checkup. I had an early 9:30 appointment but while I was there, the wait seemed long, way too long. Waiting. This seems to be the case at almost all Doctor appointments. First I wait to be called in and then while in a patient's room, I wait again for almost another 20 minutes. I almost dozed off waiting. Good thing I'm used to being patient and waiting around. But, while sitting there, in a way it seems sort of a waste of time, sitting there, doing nothing but wait. I guess I'm more of the type A personality where I'm used to getting things done, quickly and timely. Another reason I just didn't like waiting for so long and wasting precious time, is mostly me being used to the ever demanding, dutiful, serving, busy Mom of three little ones, that waiting that long, in an empty room with nothing to read on hand and doing absolutely nothing, wearing an almost naked gown, seemed just too quiet and unusual. Time, nowadays is so very important and ever more precious and I'm so keen on making valuable use of it. By the time I was done, it was 11 AM and then, I rushed full force to the usual demands of the kids, errands, school drop offs and pick ups.

Walking Dogs,  Kids
The weather in the past weeks this winter has been so nice that it's doesn't even feel like winter. I love it. Although we do desperately need rain, I really am enjoying the Spring like weather.  It's been so nice that I've gotten around to walking the kids on the double stroller with the dogs. We walk atleast for 20 minutes around the neighborhood and it's great. The dogs love it and I do too. The girls love it too as it's soothing for Emma to drift off onto her afternoon nap.

All is well with me and the family. Lots of Love.
