Three On Thursday

Today I’m sharing 3 things on my To Do List right now.

  1. Schedule my mammogram. I don’t know if I ever talked about this but the health facility I went to for ages abruptly closed 2 years ago. Everyone who went there last all of their doctors, caregivers, and medical records. I have some things . . . for instance, I can see that I had a normal bone density scan, but my baseline scan and follow up scans are not available. I always had my mammograms done here and they would schedule my next appointment when I left but last year I had to go somewhere new and they don’t schedule that far in advance so I have to call and get this done. I should have done it in March and here we are and it’s still not done. This is just a long way of explaining why I’m behind and I’m putting it here to hold myself accountable for doing it.
  2. Plant my dahlia tubers and zinnia seeds. It’s time and I’m so excited and hope to get this done on Saturday. I will have 3 raised beds for the dahlias and a new raised bed for the zinnias. I didn’t have room for zinnias last year and I really missed them so it will be nice to grow them again. I also have way too many dahlias than I have room for so I may be adding some potato bags to the area as well.
  3. Change my bedroom curtains. I have winter white velvet drapes that I have up there in the fall and winter and I have spring and summer ones that are lighter sheers with pom poms. I usually switch the curtains when I switch the bedding but somehow it didn’t get done back in April. Like the mammogram, I’m putting it on this list to hold myself accountable and get it done.

What’s on your to do list right now?

  1. I have so many things on my list, I couldn’t list them all here! But I am working on it. I hope both of us find lots of mojo to get it all done.

  2. The one thing on my list is my colonoscopy tomorrow morning (and the dreaded prep tonight). I did get my mammogram done the other month so that is over with for another year. I need to figure out a menu for Saturday when Colin, Mailing and Iris will be over for a day-early Mother’s Day celebration!

  3. Thanks for that mammo-reminder! I got the letter from the place I go before we left on vacation… I need to call them to get it scheduled!

    I am excited to see your new beds this year… and I am happy that the zinnias are returning! (I just might pick up some zinnia seeds and give them a try this year!)

  4. I delayed my mammogram in 2020 and now it’s out of sync with everything else. How about making your fun planting your reward for getting that scheduled? Always love your summer flowers shared here.

  5. Making a scheduling phone call and changing curtains aren’t too bad, and then you get to plant! I love zinnias; they are so colorful, sturdy, and long-lasting.

  6. We still have our cozy winter bedding on, too. It’s been so chilly at night still!

  7. Yes, definitely call to schedule your mammogram today! I think you sometimes have to wait quite awhile to get an appointment.

  8. I dread making phone calls, scheduling estimates, appointments, etc. and will procrastinate forever. I am committed to checking things off my long overdue To Do list this spring. I started with an estimate for painting yesterday! I’m sure you’ll knock out your list this weekend!

  9. As it happens, I just got a letter in the mail from the hospital where I get my mammograms reminding me to schedule mine! I hope by now you’ve already scheduled yours.

  10. I wish it would finally warm up enough here to take the flannel sheets off my bed! 😛 (It looks like maybe next week. Finally.) I have too many things on my to-do list right now . . . so won’t bore you with any of that. Glad to see scheduling your mammogram on the list! ALWAYS an important thing to do. And I can’t wait to see your zinnias and dahlias come to life! (Do you plant zinnia seeds? Or are you transplanting seedlings?)
