GOOD MORNING, FRIENDS

A REMEMBERAMBLE NOVEMBER 20, 2025

Knock, knock. "Who is it, babee?" "It look like Misser Thursdee deddee!" "Well, tell him to "get down and come in." "Deddee says yu git down and come inn, Misser Thursdee." "Ohs, dat lil merle, he dumb ann not ansser door, i smart babee and ansser doorses." Okay now, we have Thursday settled in for a spend-the-day visit, the boyz are snuggled in, so I reckon we will start with my cardiac testing yesterday.

I survived it. Everyone always asks "what did they tell ya?" Well, they told me, "you had nothing to eat or drink since midnight right, okay, that is very important, we have to make sure of that before we begin, so we are ready to begin, now I am going to get you a cup of ice water and some peanut butter cookies...(I swear this is true, they gave me water and peanut butter cookies, medical cookies, x-ray cookies, or whatever)...those help the camera to see better, this will sting a bit, make a fist,

it might feel cold for a minute, oops, sorry, I will get another one, let's try the other hand, sit here, now go sit in there, okay, let's go in here, sit down, unbutton your shirt, lay back, pull your arms up over your head, hold still like that, okay, we may have to shave your chest, oops, ow, yeah, I know that has to hurt, now, okay that's over, go back and sit where you were and I will come get you in forty minutes, Mr. Peebles,

oh, we thought you were snoring, are you okay, it's fine, everyone has gas now and then, now follow me, no-no, walk behind me, come in here, sit on the bed, now lay back, we are gonna put these stick-on torture devices on your chest, we really do need to shave it, okay, we shaved most of it, now, okay, when we give you the radioactive toxin, you might feel a little flushed, and for a minute or two you may have a near death experience,

if you do, stop us and tell us, and you can visit with the Lord while we bang on your chest and holler at each other, well now, you came back out of it just fine didn't you now, you are a real trooper aren't you, ooh sorry, these are stuck tight, shaving didn't help much did it, oh I am sorry, hold that skin down while I get a towel, oh and a mop, okay you aren't too weak to walk back to the waiting room are you, you didn't lose THAT MUCH blood,

okay, we will come back for you in forty minutes again and repeat the gamma camera thingy, no sir, we don't have anymore cookies, we will hafta make a Dollar General run and restock the medical cookie cabinet, no sir, peanut butter was all we had left, it was Eugenia's birthday yesterday and we ate them, alrighty back in here, sit down, okay lay down that's right arms over your head, you are a smart one, you are learning, now okay we are going to raise the table,

it should stop before you hit the ceiling, oops, hold on, we will get you back down, okay, that's better, hold still, alright, okay, now then, there ya go, alright, now, yes you can go now, tell Ms. Brown she can come on back when you pass the waiting room, please, I am going to have a couple of cookies myself, I do believe my sugar blood is low, no sir, I wasn't lying, I found some more hidden in Kevin's locker."

So, for everyone who asked, that is what they told me! I hope you have a wonderful day. I love being here for you and sharing our time together.
