Cut me deep, Shrek

Friday 25th March 9 months till Christmas! Haha Today was a medical day. I ended up spending most of the morning at my GP's rooms as he cut away a sun spot area on my wrist. Fortunately I had walked with the two furry beasts in the glorious morning light to start the day off right, with some canine love. I have known my GP for years and I nursed with his wife as a student after leaving school. So there was plenty of conversation although I didn't want him too distracted while cutting. He was concerned about scarring,  and he laughed when I said 'Scars are conversation starters...' It was weird driving home with a numb thumb and index finger. It confused me having this dentist feeling in my arm instead of my jaw. I stopped by at the shops and was confused trying to carry my purchases with a numb hand. The dogs did sniffing inspection and were happy when their dad returned and played ball with them.  A few hours later I realised my feeling was back and now it's just a matter of not sleeping on it and wait for the results. It's all part of my medical tune up before I head north to the UK.
