just got home

 Thursday at 3 45 I left home with dd14 and the twins, caught the bus then the train to Melbourne ( long trip). walked many kms around the city as the trams do not fit a twin pram. stayed in a motel for the first time ever as I cannot stay at any relative's house with the twins as I would have to have them all police checked first for DHS regulations.

Today up bright and early to go to the Royal Children's Hospital for twin 1 to see his specialists. Walked a few kms back to the city  train station and did the long trip home. Got home at 7:30 pm. 

 

 

Good news is that the specialists who have known the twins form infancy could not believe how happy they are and how much weight they have put on.

- tidy house- round 1 done

- order dd1's last b-day gift- done, she getting new snow pants, boots and hat/gloves for her b-day (she has a few other toys as well) all purple (I bought her coat at a yard sale this past summer, it was new w/ tags) with hat/gloves being Frozen :)

As far as apps, none of them take a lot of data to download and the only one with a lot of stuff to download is my kindle app (of course :) ) and I wouldn't download all those books at once anyways I only download the ones currently being read (the rest set on my cloud until in ready to read them) though now I will have the space to keep them all on my phone- got the phone and set up just need to get my pictures switched

- make next weeks to do and to buy list- done

- start dd1's room purge- started, going to finish later though with dd1

- dinner- meat pulled to thaw

- baths (if needed)

- bedtime routine

Yay for Friday!!

 

I was planning to do my big Thanksgiving shopping today, but now I'm not sure if I should.  My sister and her family are coming here, but her father in law just had a major heart attack and they are afraid he won't make it through the weekend.  So there is a big chance they won't be here... I just feel so sad for them!  He is the sweetest grandfather!  (and I know my problem is teeny tiny in comparison, but I don't want to over buy if they won't be here)

 

So since that's off the list, my whole day opens up!  

 

to do:

run

human care!

call my sister

call my mom

ride bike to son's school of T-giving luncheon

laundry wash

laundry fold

laundry put away

sweep

work on table runner

knit a little while watching You've Got Mail

work on package to send to missionary dd

work on lesson that I'm teaching on Sunday

Phew!  really really busy day.  Traffic was an absolute bear and there was no parking anywhere.

 

Two hour doctor appt. (yes, two hours. . .) - finally done

Lab work that took 2 phlebotomists, a hot pack and ended up with me sticking my arm into a bucket of hot water, done.

lunch done  (we did run into our security guard friend at the mall, so that was nice.)

Got dog food at Petco.

Did grocery shopping.

Talked to dh on the phone because that was "our time" today since we are going to be ships passing in the night.

What kind of liver problems? Enzymes elevated? This just crossed my little brain as I am typing...has someone ever checked you for MTHFR? It is a reduced ability to metabolize folate. Some people also call it poor methylating. It can bring some immune system issues as well as liver issues with it.

yes, elevated enzymes that are getting worse over time.  There are some hepatic cysts but we don't know what kind etc.  Thus more tests.
