Swim Party

Daniel and Brooke came over yesterday to swim and have dinner. They brought their two little boys, Ezra and Evan. Those two played with Nate very nicely. They were using a set of little men that were toys of Brett's when he was young. The ones they were playing with were part of a construction set. Nate built a laser tag place and Ezra built a fireworks factory. The grown-ups laughed over stories and ate homemade pizza and sundaes.

I went to the doctor about my throat. She's sending me to a GI specialist. Until I see the next doctor--not until August 14th!--I'm to take Nexium in case it's acid reflux. I hope that's what it is because the other possibilities don't seem so fun. She mentioned having an MRI and a procedure where they knock you out and put a camera down your throat. I hope I don't have to have either of those. I've had some trouble with acid reflux in the past, because of a medication I was taking, so it's very possible that's what it is.

I've been taking a break from the story. It feels pretty good. I'm reading Anne of the Island, one of the sequels to Anne of Green Gables. The copy I'm reading is one given to my grandmother in 1929. It's a hardback with the original dustcover. It says From Eunice to Jane on the inside cover. I treat it very carefully.
