I mentioned a CT scan in the most recent post. Because I had one. Because there was some concern that what currently ails me had escaped the fence and might have gone a-wandering.
Nope.
No evidence thereof. All clear.
Praise be!

Also, I am the kind of Mom who gives her grown son magazines like 'Eating Well' and 'Real Simple' to maybe help him get ideas about cooking and life and stuff.
I KNOW those mags have turned toward the women's market, but they're chock full of good stuff and I don't think that just because a magazine has ads for tampons in it they should be shunned by the male population who might get some good out of an article on getting your financial house in order or how to cook a roast or set a table or talk about difficult issues or make a pie crust. These are not only women's issues, for Pete's sake!
Even that feminine hygiene thing. Because apparently 60% of women are wearing the wrong size sanitary pad. I mean, that's not something a guy can mansplain to a bunched-up gal, but at least he can be aware of the issue, right?

Speaking of children - our boys came over for dinner tonight and it was fabulous. Chili, cornbread, dominoes, and conversation. It was great.
Except that last hand of dominoes. All tiles drawn on the first round, and only two people could play. The winner got by with only about 230 points in the last hand. Cut-THROAT.
Tiff out.

Yay for the all clear.
Having adult children over for dinner is the best. Nearly topped by having one of the adult children make dinner! :-)
I think it is great that you encourage your young mean to read Eating Well and Real Simple. My son enjoys both.
That's great! I can't stand the thought that guys can't get in tune with stuff just because there might be an ad for lipstick or piddle pads someplace in the magazine. Both Eating Well and Real Simple are great magazines with a ton of good information. The story on food genetics in a recent issue of Eating Well was very interesting and heavy on science. Love that.
"Bunched-up gal!" I chortled.
