We are getting back into the swing of fall, even though it's crazy hot. I am so over summer that I already have started putting up my fall decorations. It feels like fall inside our house. Our brief cold front and subsequent break from insanely hot weather is appreciated. I just wish the high heat would go away. It's got to be close, right? The last 2-3 years we have not hit 100 after August 12 and that makes summer a little more bearable. However, hitting 105+ for over a month and with no foreseeable end makes it seem like FOREVER summer!
T has started back to school, but with A and L not having started yet, he feels a little jaded about it. Even though he knows he will have days off that they won't get, he still resents having to work while they enjoy their days. We're gearing up for birthday week. T's biggest wish....to go eat at a pizza buffet! I don't do buffets ever. It promotes overeating and bacteria growth, but D introduced T to it one day last spring and he just thinks it is the coolest thing ever and has talked about it ever since. He even told us he was having his birthday dinner there in April, right after he first tried it! Since L and I are gluten free and D can't eat any processed foods or a lot of fat because of his pancreatitis, I guess we'll just all go and watch T eat his pizza buffet!😂
L is starting to get really excited to start college on the 23rd. Her books shipped yesterday so she should have them in time for the first day, which A's school NEVER manages to do. She had to have them shipped to my parents house because her school book store kept saying our address was invalid. We finally just gave up and shipped them to my parents since it accepted their address. She is taking 3 classes. She wanted 4, but most were already full. Since she is a new student she had to register last so several classes were already full. She is taking an english class, math class, and a design class.
A finished her summer class with an A and now gets to enjoy a week off from school before fall classes start. She is getting really antsy about finishing school. She says it feels like it has been forever. I remember that feeling! Your whole life has been school, school, school, and you're ready to be done. It will come sooner than she thinks.
Since D's pancreatitis diagnosis, he has been in to have a scan done to see the extent of it. It took a week to get in to do the scan and so far it has been another week and the doctor still hasn't called about the results. Our nurse practitioner that we loved recently moved out of town so we had to start seeing the only doctor. It takes a month for new patients to get in to see him and our issues with getting him to send orders off, answer calls, and communicate with us has been horrible. Unfortunately, there is no other close option. Yes, we could drive back to Denton, but when we're not feeling well or D just needs to pop in and have him check his blood pressure to get his BP medicine refilled, it is really nice that it is just right in town. D has really been trying hard to eat right and that combined with the PPI medicine the doctor prescribed, he has been doing a lot better. Not perfect, but better.
