So far, we've had my scan results (moderately troubling, but not an immediate big deal), and Moose's issues - we've started him on the laser treatments, but he's still hurting. In fact tonight, he was hurting enough that he was not interested in food - he's really starting to worry me. Then there was kicking Comcast to the curb, which involved change (and you all know how I feel about change). Then we got to Friday.
Friday was going to be a busy day, regardless - Mom wanted us to get prettified before we headed to Utah, and I had an appointment beforehand, but Kimo figured out that if I came in at 12:00 (and she brought a chainsaw) she could get my toes done before Kerin tackled my hair at 1:30, then Mom could get her toes done... which all went out the window when Mom went to her doctor's appointment to consult on the rogue tissue they found last November. They found a lump, which meant she had to go for an emergency ultrasound and a mammogram (so much for getting her pedicure!) Fortunately, it was a false positive, but there was a period there where I have to admit to a bit of a freak out. Frankly, I think Mom needs to stop going to the doctor.
Things eventually worked out, and we both got spruced for the trip, but it was a long day. But we figured hey - we'll do a nice brunch for Mother's Day, go out to Old Wives Tale since everyone could stay within dietary restrictions there, decompress... Got to OWT only to find out that this restaurant that has lasted 34 years in Portland's ever-changing restaurant atmosphere... closed permanently May 5th. We all took this as God saying that with the week we had, we were allowed to go to Pig 'n' Pancake. Some weeks, you just gotta have one classic diner meal to restore your sanity.
