A bit more adulting this week, male over-50 adulting in particular. I went to FW for a referral appointment with a urologist to check out what's going on with the pain & discomfort down there. Got my 3rd prostate check in the last couple months along with it; they didn't see anything really significant but suspect that I wasn't on the antibiotics long enough (usually it takes 30 days). To figure out which antibiotic I should be on, they did the check to 'activate' the prostate and get some bacteria into a specimen. 'Agitate' is more like it, it was an arduous check.....Finally got around to replacing the headlights in the van this week. One has been burned out for quite a while and I keep saying 'I need to replace that really soon' but then forgetting.....We all went to Fort Wayne on Saturday, most particularly to go to a cross-stitch framing store. I've been wanting to get the Charleston stitching I did a long time ago (I started it in 2000, and finished it in 2007) framed, so we found the stitching store online and headed there. Got the mat and frame picked out, should look really good. After getting lost on the way back (it's a part of FW we don;t usually go to!) we hit the mall and Barnes & Noble. Blaze Pizza for dinner.....Missy had an art award presentation this week, that was supposed to be today in FW, but she didn't want to go. Not sure why. She was nominated for the award by a teacher, and I think it's quite an honor for a sophomore to be so nominated, but we never could get anything out of Missy as to what it was for, what kind of award it was, etc. She told us she didn't want to go to the presentation but also couldn't tell us why not. I think she was too nervous about maybe having to get up in front of people but that's only a guess. Anyway, I'm so proud of her for winning an art award! I just wish I knew what it was and what it was for.
