Busy week...

Tomorrow is my yearly biopsy of my bladder. They want to make sure the abnormal part is still OK and has not grown at all.  I dread this each year because it is painful and last for 2-3 days.  But, I dread cancer more - so it is the lessor of two evils. After my doctors appointment I hope to go to Sam's to grab a few things before coming home to cry!!! I hate that it is suppose to be colder and VERY windy tomorrow.  That will not make it any better.

Besides that, I have been fighting a cold or something.  I have this terrible cough and want it to be over!  I think Alayna gave it to me so that she wouldn't be the only one suffering. She finally went back to school today after missing an entire week. 

Oma goes to the heart doctor on Wednesday to get the results of her month long heart monitor. Wonder what this will lead to.  I have a feeling that she will be having heart surgery - pacemaker.  But, am not sure.  At least they seem to have gotten the medicine straightened out - no ER visits in a while!

Thanksgiving 2010

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We had family and a friend over and of course we all had a good time...eating, playing games, Wii competiton, and of course Christmas Pictures.  All in all it was a great time for all that were there I think.  The only thing that was missing was Gails Cranberry salad, well and Gail too!

 We were blessed to have our own personal chef for the day. The food was so good with a personal chef doing all the work and taking the pressure off of us. Her fee was well worth it as well, all she asked for was one plate of food.

I hope everyone had a wonderful day with family and friends. 

Hello Saturday, missed you...

Well the week-end finally decided to show up at my house!  It is early in the morning and I am the only one up.  Kristi and Alayna moved back to their apartment last night and it was very quiet here when I finally got  home about 8:30.  After work, I took Kristi and Alayna to the grocery store and Sam's so they would not starve to death at their home.

Kristi went to the ortho doctor on Wednesday and he switched braces.  He gave her an ROM (Range of Motion) brace set at 30 degrees right now.  Every three day she can move it 10 degrees to allow for a little more movement.  She is still in pain, but not as much as she was in at first.  The swelling makes a nasty comeback at the end of the day, but she comes home and puts it up and puts ice on it with a nice pain pill and it gets all better!!! She only uses the walker now if the knee it really unstable or she doesn't have her brace on (like scooting to the bathroom).  Otherwise, the wheely walker is lonely.  The knee is really unstable without the brace.  The doctor said this was one of those things that you read about in text books but don't ever expect to see. Leave it to Kristi to give him hands-on experience with something.

Today, we are going to cut wood.  Tom's dad and Brian are coming over - both with chain saws to cut wood.  We have had a lot of trees fall down in the winds that we have had recently and have not had the time or energy to get out there and cut them up.  Not to mention, we need the firewood!!

Well, I better get to my report for work.  I have to get this done this week-end.

How is everyone else doing??
