My pillow

Friday will quickly be coming to an end and I have yet to write my weekly “positively perfect” post. It’s not that today is a particularly bad day. It’s wasn’t. I just haven’t thought of anything that inspires me to write, and I’ve been trying all day.

I’ve thought that my “trying” all day might be the issue. Writing shouldn’t be that hard, but it is sometimes.

This week I am feeling particularly tired. The week began with a call from Kaiser’s mammography department for a “follow up.” They wanted me to return on the same day. It was both alarming and confusing as my doctor had said that everything was normal.

Well, as it turned out, the need for a follow up appointment was an error. *sigh of relief* I was told, however, to keep the appointment with the surgeon as radiographs don’t always catch malignant lesions. My reason for celebration was premature it would seem.

I am glad that I kept the appointment. The surgeon examined my breast and I pointed out what I was feeling. She said it was normal fibrocystic “ridging.” Then she found what my doctor must have felt. In the past week, I had been puzzled by doctor’s description of a “1/2 cm, hard, mobile lesion” since it was a very different description from what I had felt. What she felt was a sebaceous cyst – which is also not a problem.

So, you see, it has actually been a good week. It’s been tiring but good. Still, I chose NOT run 20 miles *this* Friday night. It will wait until Sunday even though I am getting my hair done tomorrow and would have liked to keep it looking nice until Monday.

Today I relaxed and decompressed from my week. I even took a nap this afternoon. Since I have been so tired, I have found much comfort in my bed where my pillow is soft and inviting. It is the “positively perfect” item for this week…because I am just so tired.
