What I'm Reading This Week #35
Howdy do and happy last Friday of August! I hope you had a good week and if your weather was like ours, it was FINALLY under 93 degrees. Don't get me wrong, I know sweater weather isn't here but it was nice to not have the AC working overtime (set to 76) starting at 11am every day! It was nice to not walk out to water the garden and walk into a wall of humidity so I will take what I can get. Speaking of which: With this 3" San Marzano , I shall be able to make enough sauce to cover 7.3 spaghetti noodles. 😒 Now let's get to: How to Stock Your Pantry for Quick & Easy Meals in Minutes (Ooh, I need to crockpot some black beans for some sweet potato black bean burritos.)

I'm glad you made that appointment. It is a shame you have to wait 'til Friday but it's that time of year for sure. I do hope you get the flexible tool above because that other thing looks like something from Total Recall. Just hang in there!
ReplyDeleteYeah I was hoping for sooner. Got on a cancellation list but not holding my breath. I will flat out faint if they bring out the rigid one. They would need to put me out.
DeleteNever had one. You'll have to give your review of the experience. I haven't watched SH yet, but it's on my DVR so I can when I have time.
ReplyDeleteOh you can bet I'll be reviewing that experience! LOL
DeleteI think you'll love the episode. Felt very much like the first season.
That's funny, I just had a nasal endoscopy last month. I was having issues with acid reflux and my ENT wanted to take a closer look. The nurse spayed this numbing spray into my nose and throat, but then the doctor took so long to get into the exam room that it had already worn off. I told him this as he was jamming the scope into my nose and he told me that I would be fine and he was skilled enough that it wouldn't hurt (he wasn't, the arrogant dummy.)
ReplyDeleteAt any rate, when done properly and performed with the numbing spray (and a good doctor), it won't be bad. And it is a very quick test - he was in and out in less than one minute.
No doctor is violating my nose/throat without proper numbing. I'll bite him. LOL Thankfully it's at 8:45am so hopefully he won't have many reasons to be lollygagging. I have a light gag reflex (I literally almost barfed this morning brushing my tongue. Dork) so numbing is crucial for me.
DeleteI hope your reflux is better! I've had several people with reflux swear by papaya enzyme pills. Don't know if you've heard of them or given them a try already.
