Tuesday, June 25, 2024 Sunny Clear Hot Still 91 Degrees 4:36 p.m.
Another Summer day in East Tennessee. It is rather hot outside so indoors is perfect. I learned that if one needs to do any running around, it should be done before noon. This afternoon even the birds are in their nests, in the shade, out of the sun. No puppy dogs walking their people, no lizards scurrying across the front door step. All in their respective homes for their afternoon siesta.
Last evening the whole of East Tennessee, and probably the rest of Tennessee as well, was celebrating the University of Tennessee’ Baseball team as they brought home the trophy, winning the 2024 World Series Baseball series. The first one for them. All the people and fans around here are truly happy and thankful. Tennessee people are totally sports fans, especially of their own teams. All rally together, cheer them on and celebrate each team member. So wonderful to watch. I wonder how many people didn’t make it to work today because of watching the game on TV, or attending tailgate parties? So many families as well as single people went to Omaha Nebraska to watch the games in person. The crowd in Orange filled one half of the stands at the ball park there. Such a sight to see. Congratulations to the UT Baseball team.
This morning I had a Dr. appointment at 8:50 A.M. this is a new doctor, a dermatologist, as I had a cyst on my back that the regular doctor took care of bu thought I should see the dermatologist. I was there a bit early, filled out all the paper work and though I had a few minutes to wait. I was called right in. The doctor, a young lady, was very nice. She check where the cyst had been, said it was fine and that it would probably return at some point. When it does I should came in and she can get the whole thing out, including the sack. I had her check the moles I have and she said that they were not anything serious, and that they were passed down genetically. She froze several of them. I will go back in six weeks and get some more froze off. A great feeling of knowing they aren’t serious, just ugly.
