silver_chipmunkSo I went to the sleep lab last night, 44 bus to 46 bus, to 271st street and Uber from there. The study went very well, I actually managed to sleep despite all the leads and wires and sensors (including the one up my nose). I read for about an hour, then turned off the light and actually slept. I woke up a few times but nothing unusual.
They woke me up at around 5:30 and took off the stuff, and I dressed and Ubered home. It was not $70, only $40, so that's good. I ate breakfast and fed Oreo his Fancy Feast, the went and showered and shampooed my hair to get the paste that they use for the sensors on your upper head out. Then I went tobed and slept for three hours.
Then I got up and had coffee and dressed, and read the computer til 12:15 when I Ubered to my mammogram. That went fine, I also had a breast sonogram. I'll get the results soon.
Then I went to Duane Reade to finally get my prescriptions, I had to wait cause it was their lunch time.
Then I took the subway to Manhattan to go to the union May Day rally and march. It took me awhile to find where I was supposed to be, and I missed all of the speeches in the center of Washington Square park. I mean, I could hear them but not make out words. But I hung out and talked to a lot of fellow DC 37 people and that was interesting.
But the march took forever to get started. After 5:00. I was expecting to be done by 6:00 and be able to get to my 7:00 meeting only a little late. Nope. The march finally reached Foley Square at 6:30. I left then and made my way to the Bronx, the 5 train to 86th street and the express bus from there. The traffic was also awful, so I didn't make it til just in time for the second meeting. Which was very good.
Afterward I got a ride to the us stop, for a miracle the 50 was there about on time, and I just made a 25 when I got to Queens so I got home quickly.
There was a little technical trouble Teaming the FWiB but not bad. We only talked for a very short time though because I am beat. I fed the pets, had some cheese and crackers myself, and started here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.

3. Got my mammogram and sonogram.
