Catching Up Today

Been trying to catch up on blogs.  Hey BB,,,, where are you????  I know, i know,,no internet there, but,,,,

Talked to J about an hour and a half ago, he still hasn't seen the doc, and was in a terrible mood wanting some pain med.  Was gonna get up and walk, so not to lay there hurting, he said.  I DON'T WANT HIM HOME LIKE THIS,,,,,  A nurse had told him they might have to keep him tonight.  I went over to his house and made his bed up, so it's ready.  It's a hospital bed his dad got him a long time ago after one of the other back surgeries.  That key he gave me came in handy,, lol.  It's to his Dad's house too. 

I just kinda piddled around on my way back yesterday.  I stopped once to fill up the car, and once for a milk shake.  Then, just 15 miles down the road i passed a good looking mexican food restaurant, turned right around and went back.  Got a plate of cheese enchiladas with the fixings, ate a little and brought the rest home.  Got it for later today.  Gonna make some oatmeal for lunch, here in a bit.

Monday nite, out at the lake area, was hearing about a man going around his house with guns in his hands, having a flash back.  His mom was on the phone with 911, trying to calm him down, but she would, then he would turn right back around uncontrollable again.  It went on for about 2 hours and i went to bed.  The DPS had shown up.  Well, they ended up shooting and killing him.  Told him to drop his weapons,,and he raised them to fire.  I just read his obit today, and the family was asking for a change on how these situations are handled here in TX.  He was a 20 year vet, and had an impressive career and life.  This is wrong!!!  I totally agree with the family.

I am so glad to be home,,,that was my last trip staying away like that.  No rest, total exhaustion.  Just can't do that now.  Got a good nite's sleep last nite, feel better, but gonna spend the next few days doing nothing.

I'm Backkkkkk

Just got home a while ago, and i'm so tired, exhausted, etc, just gonna be a line or 2.  The 4 hour surgery went fine, he's doing great, and his g/f is staying there with him, soooo,,,i came home.  Not even 24 hours after the surgery he has everything unhooked, going to the potty on his own, can manage to turn himself mostly alone.  It ended about 4 yesterday, and the first 3 hours were BAD, but he was getting a little better when i went back to the motel, then when i called about 9, he had his mouth full of a turkey sandwich!!!  Anyway, just wanted yall to know.  So tc, and

BeBack Thurs. or Fri.

Woke up way too early today, will take a nap later.  Not leaving til 4:00.  That way i can get there before dark to find the motel.  I'm using Js GPS, so don't expect any trouble.  G told me the big intersection is under construction building a new overpass, at 281 and 1604,,,the one we are close to and have to go through.  I want to locate the best way to the hospital today, too.

Gosh, i'm seeing all the damage from Sandy right now.  In RI.  It's so bad over such a huge area.  Saw where one of the late shows was done with no audience,,Letterman i think.

My little weather thingy was showing rain, but,,, not here at the house...It is 2 miles N so maybe there.

See yall when i get back, decided not to take the laptop.  So yall tc, and

More Nothing

Like i told DD, i like this cool weather.  We had a low in the 30s, but will warm up good later.  Then back to the 80s by mid week.  I think it's unusual to have the warm weather this late.   The time in San Antonio is gonna be in the low 80s.  lololol,,,Beats the last time,,iced in for 2 days or so.  That was in Jan. tho.  I used half a tank of gas going out to smoke.  That saved me from being iced out of my car tho.  My x liked to have never got his open after sitting there, had about an inch of frozen sheets of ice on it.  I stopped about half way back to get gas, and had just gotten out of the ruts i had been driving in and OMG,,,there was still sheets of ice on the back part of my car, over the gas door.  Had to bang on it and then it fell off in big sheets.  The temp had gotten up to about 32*.    The x and our son had run off and left me,,,when they passed that 18 wheeler going 10 mph.  Took me a long time to try that,,getting out of the 2 ruts, driving across that frozen stuff to the other side,,,(2 ruts).  I got up to 15 mph to pass,,,hahahahaha.  Made it fine, but i was shaking,,,lol.  That truck never slowed down.

I got home and my heater had gone off, so the house was COLD!  It had needed to be cleaned out and after that was done it was good.  All he did was blow out the dust with canned air.  It has all those safety things.

Gotta get busy,,,do a few things. Like vacuum,,,shower.  So yall tc and

We ARE READY

3 more days and we are more and more ready to get this done.  I have a list ,,,lol,,,of course,, so i won't forget something.  It's things to take and things to do since i plan on staying there 2 nights for sure, maybe 1 more.  He,,and me too, are hoping he can leave on Thursday, but,,,lol.  Think not likely., will be Friday.  Weather's gonna be beautiful.

I'm still hating it that i missed DD and the Mrs.   Just couldn't work it out that day.

Did any of yall read that new blog i told you about a couple of days ago?  I found it in the paper, sorta, and what they write about is so true of us,,,lol.  (Us, as in 'old people')

Got up a little earlier today, gonna help J unload some stuff out of his car, and couldn't get ahold of him.  Just did about 15 minutes ago, and found out he had done a lot already so maybe later.  He had left his cell phone at his g/fs,,,and sure nuff, just as soon as i stepped in the shower, he called.  I've told everybody if i don't answer, call back in a couple of minutes,,,lol.  He wasn't calling my cell.  He's bringing breakfast tacos, wish he'd hurry,,,,
