IF you like sports or IF you have ever taken a test or IF you have been to the doctor's office and are waiting to hear what he or she will tell you...THEN you need today's expression!Speaking of doctor--a week and a half ago I went back to my skin doctor and he wanted to TEST three spots on my body (on my back, my head and in my ear~). I have had several cases of skin cancer, so he thought I might have more. WELL...I have been waiting for the results of the tests and they came back TODAY...all three spots are "benign" which means NO cancer!! I'm very happy. I used today's expression several times!!
