Wednesday Wisdom

Success is never owned, it is rented. And the rent is due every day.

Yep that sounds about right. Everyday is new and the work is cut out for your daily.

Colonoscopy Update

I had my colonoscopy today and most everything went fine. I have to go back for a follow-up scope to see about some things they couldn’t get to due to some minor complications. They did however remove some polyps today. After not eating anything for a couple of days I am hungry. The prep for this really does suck.

Blogging Is

Blogging is about the good, the bad, and all the stuff in-between. It’s also more fun that way. Keep on blogging good people.

Prepping For A Colonoscopy

This is probably the last thing you would be reading about today, but I am preparing for a colonoscopy which is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. This involves a liquid diet for 24 or so hours and some stuff to clear things out. I should have had one when I turned 50 but due to circumstances I am just now getting around to it.

Sure there are worse things to get ready for like major surgery but alas I am taking this whole thing in stride. It’s helpful to see what’s going on inside you physically. After the procedure, I will have pancakes as a treat.

I’ll update you as things develop :).
