So what has been going on with you? I have been busy, busy, busy. I hate when that happens. But sometimes life happens and the rest of the stuff has to be put on the back burner. So a quick update here and I will have to run off to my busy, busy, busy, too much shit to do life.
So Thursday night around 10pm, I got a call. Mom had called an ambulance out for dad. He was having trouble breathing and a few chest pains. A Nitro didn’t help so it was off to the hospital with him. He got a quack of a doctor. His chart shows he has Pulmonary Fibrosis…He kept asking Daddy if he ever had trouble breathing. Aneewho….Dad was laughing and cutting up and we are beginning to wonder if he is addicted to the hospital. The nurses and all do so love him and shower him with attention.
We managed to get home around 3am…tired and give out. Had to get Little Miss off to school which meant climbing out of bed at 6am. I would say after we got settled down and finally went to sleep I managed about 2 hours of sleep. Friday was not a good day all the way around. The doc told daddy he could get out that day and then apparently changed his mind when he saw how low daddy arterial blood gases were, but he neglected to tell daddy. OH, BOY!!! Not a good thing to do. He finally blew up at the nurse at around 7pm and told her he wanted a straight answer about when the hell he was getting out of there. That was when the nurse told him, after speaking with the doc, that he wouldn’t be going home. We walked in to a hornet’s nest. My good gravy he was MAD!!!
So Saturday morning, Little Miss had ball practice and guess who went and helped out? That’s right it was The Boy!!!! He was home, Friday when we got home, so I kinda figured he would be going. Daddy got to come home on Saturday, they released him at 11am, he refused to leave until 6pm. WTH?!!!! He insisted he was just too tired to get to the car. Said he would have to take a nap half way to the car. Mom got annoyed, she thinks he was afraid to get too far from the hospital. He did finally decide he could get to the car and from the car to the house. The doc says tiredness is all a part of the disease, but for someone to have thrown a fit to go home the night before, he sure wanted to stay on Saturday.
Sunday we were having a 85th birthday dinner for my Granddaddy, mom was suppose to do some cooking. Guess who didn’t think she was going to get home to cook? Yeppers, mom. Guess who took over her cooking duties? Yeppers that would be ME. The one who doesn’t do cooking very well and guess what I got to cook…..A turkey breast. I have never cooked turkey before….that is momma’s job. So I cooked turkey, I cooked shells and cheese, I made tea, I cooked baked beans. Did I mention that I also babysat all day Saturday? A cute little thang. I would post pics but I left my camera at mom’s.
So Saturday, I babysat (pics coming), I finished cleaning mom’s house for her, I cooked, I delivered Little Miss to her Halloween party, I was busy. I was exhausted. But I found time to kick my darling hubby’s ass at bowling. Why yes I did.
So that brings us to Sunday, and what a Sunday it was…..Family, food, pictures, food, gossip, food, fun, food. Yeah the food was good! Which brings us to my family tree…..I am related to a bunch of NUTS!!!! OK, I have already showed my dad may be slipping off his rocker by refusing to leave the hospital. My cousin, the hyperchrondiac, kept saying she had lost a whole person. In all fairness, she had gastric bypass and has lost 145 pounds, but please, a whole person???? I was beginning to wonder if she had a split personality and one had left. My aunt…. also had gastric bypass and is 25 pounds from her goal weight. Her big thing was she would see everyone at Thanksgiving if we were all still living. This would explain that comment….Her son is a conspiracy theorist…Oh I am sorry, the people who are conspiracy theorist, only have theories, he has proof. Video, recordings, DVDs. So all day I got to hear about how the government is killing off the old and weak and dumbing down our children. I swear he even gave me DVDs to watch. The EPA cops are coming. He meant well, we are family and he didn’t want us to think we were safe or anything, he wants us informed.
And grandaddy, well he took the time to tell my aunt that her double chins are wrinkled since her surgery and that she was eating too much. My cousin that she is well on her way to that double chin, if she doesn’t quit eating so much. My mom that she has several chins, and let us not forget that I have my CHINS and I am gaining weight in leaps and bounds! And my mom, bless her heart, informed him that we all got it from HIM!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
Dad had a bad day and spent the whole time in the bedroom, coughing his head off and a lung up. He did sleep a bit though. Adivan is a wonderful thing. I have to call and see if he is better today, he must be…I got an email this morning. Always a good sign. SO whether I want to or not, now I must jump up and accomplish all the shit I put off doing all weekend. Until next time……………
HAVE A GREAT DAY AND THANKS FOR VISITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
