I got home finally from the cardiologist and honestly I was exhausted mentally. Not to mention the slight chest pains from testing earlier today.

I groaned a bit getting out of my car and walked into my house. My father was doing bills on the computer as usual at this time of day.

He looked up at me and then back down to the paperwork in front of him and the computer.

"How was the appointment?" he asked without looking up.

"Fine. Tests aren't getting better. I was told I should probably get the CRT today." I replied monotonously.

"Great how much is that going to cost?" he replied with a sigh.

"Nothing. It's covered by insurance." I explained with an eye roll he didn't see.

That's what his first thought was? The money? He only nodded in reply and I headed back to my room. I picked up my ukulele and strummed at it aimlessly, but it wasn't working to get my mind off things.

So instead I put headphones in and got on my phone to listen to music. I got back on my blog and went to my messages.
