September 2nd...

First Day of School 2014-2015

Carson 7th Grade and Cameron 11th Grade

Cameron looks like he could be a Teacher with that beard!
Carson is all stylin' with her freshly dyed hair and happy.

READY? OR NOT?

=========================

Also...

Went to my Doctor appointment this morning.
Lost another 5 pounds!
All is looking great.

and 

I got a few items to crochet. Hot Dawg!

A kink in the chain....

Got a phone call that changed things a bit. Dr. Spencer's Office called. Apparently BC/BS insurance covers only Blue Distinction Facilities (Places of Excellence they have certified), and Chesapeake General Hospital is NOT one of those facilities, yet. I NOW have to see if the Bariatric Docs at Sentara can schedule me In for surgery, since they are a Blue Distinction Facility. Dr. Spencer's office... will release ALL info, but I need a separate release for Psych.
Not too happy about this. Not understanding why it took them 2 months to find this out and why that even really matters, but thus is what happened and now I have to make a switch. Good News, she said is that ALL my work is done and I am ready for surgery. Just need to meet with new Doctor and transfer paperwork. Argh!!!!

 

Waiting for return phone call from Sentara's Bariatrics Planning Manager now.

So....how's everyone else's day going?

 

So happy I have knitting tonight at Panera.
I am in need of a really good laugh with friends now!

Long Day...

Took Carson to the Cardiologist today. EKG and ECHO came back fine, but Cardiologist gave her a heart system for her to use for a month anytime she feels her heart racing. This measures her heart and then we call in a transmission and if something is wrong they will call us. Otherwise, she is good to start her Concerta and plethora of vitamins now.

Porter's teacher and the AT gal are here at home, tested Porter and now they might issue him his computer...yea!  OK, well...we have to wait until the AT gets paperwork cleared and it gets approved, but he SHOULD be getting it (hopefully).
Cashed a few Getaway Checks at the Bank and Paid the beach house in FULL, went out for lunch w/ James and Carson after her Doctor visit. Went knitting at Baa Baa Sheep tonight to knit the Mystery Shawl KAL...started it, frogged it, starting over.

 

Got to pack up some crocheted Owls for Rita and Michelle, continue to knit on Baby Snuggle Wrap and KAL and crochet a few more Owls...tomorrow.

 

 

 

Eye Docs...

Just got back from eye doc. Carson needed glasses! He said she is Near-Sighted and her eyes went downhill over the last 3 years. He did extensive tests on her...tested for Glaucoma too. That was ok. So, glasses are a must. Cam's eyesight is... still the same and the Doc said he thinks his eye blinking is a twitch (and to keep doing eye drops of Systane when dry)...still needs glasses, so we ordered new ones for him since it's been 3 years and new ones for Carson. Should be in 5-10 business days.

Wednesday Carson has an appointment for her meds and next Tuesday she has the Big Cardio appointment at CHKD. Hoping all is well, because we leave a week from Saturday to go up to CT. She will have to get her homework for the week she'll be out, so I need to draw up a letter to see if they will make homework packets, etc...

Carson got these Jessica McClintock's:
(forgot the brand for Cam's)
