Monday, Monday

Son was transferred into rehab Sat, and when i called this morning he was doing therapy. So, haven't talked to him yet.

My hip is lots better but not completely without pain. I know that replacement is in my future. lol.

Got the new sticker on my car a few days ago, and they took off the registration one too. All i have is one showing 7-15, when plates are due. He told me my serpentine belt was about to come apart, so gotta get that replaced.

Sure hope we get some rain, but not much hope. It's going just south of us.

My stomach keeps staying upset, off and on, so i made an appointment for tomorrow to see what's going on. I think it's something i'm taking. I blame everything on that lol.

Hope it gets fixed by Wed, got an appointment over in Burnet to do that eye check, finish that up. Riding the bus, don't want to lose control,,, lol.

I just might order my new glasses online, i looked into it on glassesusa.com. G/dotter and BF came by a few days ago and he fixed my printer so it scans into computer now. Put a picture in to use to see frames on me.

Gotta git, so yall tc, and

Another Short Update

Son's in a regular room, but when they did another mylogram, didn't find anything to be causing his leg to be numb, so Doc thinks therapy will do it. They had him up with his body brace, leg brace, and a walker yesterday and he walked across the room and back, then today, walked some in the hall. He was making his leg work too, which is already an improvement from yesterday.

My hip is 90% better!!! Found out that doc hadn't ordered one into my hip, just around the spine and into the bursa muscle. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR WHY??? The hip has been the problem since the getgo.

That's all, folks, so tc, and

Just a Short Report

The Doc went back in to one place and fixed the bleeding and took a blood clot out. The right leg isn't numb any more, but now the left one is, and if it's not better Monday, he will go back in to fix it too. He stands straight, and is going into a regular room today.

I  told him the Doc was gonna get him right yet! And he will.

In the meantime, i can't wait til Tuesday, to get my hip taken care of,,, I HOPE. If not, replace it! Only way i'm pain free is if i'm not moving.

My 2 brothers came by and wired my 220 plug back into a 110 for the new ac i got last year. I guess it hadn't been right from the getgo, but it is now. Took em quite a while. The older one has changed that a few times before, so i don't know why he didn't do this before either.

I'm going with Brad to visit my son in a bit. He said he'd push a wheel chair for me... lol.

Guess i'd better eat a bite, so i can be ready, yall tc, and

Son's Surgery

It was torture for me to have to wait here at home for news. I got the first call at 7:45 that he had just been taken to surgery, and also the news it could be 8-9 hours long. He had told me that besides the one bad one that didn't get fixed 2 1/2 years before, there were 3 other places to do something to, too.

I waited, and waited, then waited some more for the update news, and finally about 2 couldn't wait any longer so i called his dad, and they had no news either. Around 3 his fiance pestered them enough that they called and got an update, which she was told everything was going just great, and would be another 1  to 1 1/2 hours. 2 more hours went by, and i called again, nothing. Around 5;15, they finally got thru, Went great, there will be no pain, and he will be able to stand straight. That was the bad fix, had to break the bone mashing on his spinal cord, pull it straight and fuse it. That's why it takes a neurosurgeon to do that. This one is great.

He had to have some blood transfusion, not sure how much, and he is staying in ICU all nite to keep him calm and under. They will wake him in the morning. I told his dad it wasn't as bad as the 21 days before when his esophagus ruptured. (thanks for that spell checker)lol,

This is one of those nites where i wake up, and can't get back to sleep, so here i am. He's like me, do what is needed asap. Not scared of surgery, DO IT. Gosh, i'm ready with this hip. It's a wonder i haven't gained 50 pounds, but haven't gained any, not being able to walk but just enough to get where i have to be. Getting in my car is hard, having to lift that leg in.

Since it's almost 4am, my proof reading is not too good, but, yall tc, and

Buying a House

Reading DDs blog about how they bought his property, reminded me of mine.

We had looked for a couple of years, and nothing fit the bill. She called me one day, on a Saturday morning, and said she had found the perfect place. Just put on the market. She took me to look, and yesssssssss,,, was the one! The fence on one side was the city limits, pasture there. 2 lots, end of the street, on the corner. BIG house, like they built them in the 50s or 60s, big rooms, not just closet size bedrooms. 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1 unfinished. Den, with a fireplace. Outside big garage, not attached to the house. Later built a breezeway in that space. Did the 2nd bathroom within 2 years, it was plumbed in,, and wired in too.

I called the banker, (played bridge with him) and asked if he would finance another house, he said yes, come in Monday and sign the papers. I put earnest money up, got the house that day, moved in a few weeks later. My youngest brother has it now. Like home to him,, lol. The perfect place to raise kids. Across the pasture, is a huge creek. A block from the river.

I'm still staying still, taking pain meds, which don't do much. It's really hard to not be able to go to Austin for my son's surgery tomorrow. His finance told me she would keep me posted all the time. It's early in the morning, but not sure what time. Will be about 4 1/2 hours.

I just don't have anything to write about, so yall tc, and

Vandals

Good thing i took those pictures, kids destroyed every one of them the next day, (nite). No one seems to know who they were..Where's that drone??? lol.

My hip is really bad, having to take pain meds just about all the time. I'd have surgery right NOW if i could. My appointment with the pain doc is on 4-7. 2 MORE WEEKS.

My home health care got started last week. Not sure how long this one will last, she said when something better showed up, she would take it... lololol,, can't blame her. I told my supervisor to be on the lookout for another one.

My neighbor is mad because i dared to ask her to do something with that yapping T%^&&*^ yorkie dog she has. I actually asked her what was wrong with it, after it yipping for a long time. How can they stand it? It's like they can't hear it. Now she's gonna trap my cat and get the city to pick it up. It's not my cat doing what she was saying.... hahahaha. O well, i knew they'd be trouble from the start. Glad the 8' fence is there. Now i'm just a "crabby old lady",,,,

Time for breakfast, yall tc, and
