a success

My dad's surgery was a success. There is even talk of maybe him being able to go home tomorrow! Thank you for keeping my dad in your thoughts and prayers.While in my home town of Eugene We visited with Aunts,Uncles,grandma's,grandpa's,friends from high school.Ate way to much fast food.Skipped my morning shower.Saw the most beautiful rainbow.Gave lots of hugs. Received lots of hugs.Just for fun rode every single elevator in the hospital a bazillion times.Picked up my step mom's  old broken down computer so my computer savvy husband can bring it back to life again.Ate at our favorite Mexican restaurant Burrito Boy.Their chicken tacos are the bomb. Got a little freaked out by my friend's daughter baby alive doll. Watched our little man play with his big cousin Isaiah (his five).Melt my heart. Had a restful night of sleep.Drove a little over 200 miles.Took a cat nap on the drive home. No need to worry my husband is the driver in our family. It sure feels good to be home and know my dad is in recovery nicely. Only time will tell if this surgery will be the answer to the chronic back pain he has lived with most of his life.I'm tired it's time to call it a night, Good night.Thanks for listening.

Blog Block and Anxious

I guess you could say I have a bad case of blog block. It's not  that I have nothing new to share. New pictures of our little man to show off. I just have had a really bad case of blog block. I have tempted to post several times. Now I have several unfinished post. Maybe one day I will finish those post but not tonight. My goal tonight is to simple finish this post. I have been a lazy blogger. My three followers I apologize.

Tonight I am feeling anxious.Early tomorrow morning we will be loading up the car and hitting the road to my home town Eugene. Thankfully the drive is short. Only two hours.Not bad. Normally I look forward to trips home.This time I am feeling anxious. You see my dad will be having surgery. I can't help but feel anxious when I know that my one and only dad will be under the knife.It's scary when you think of everything that could possible go wrong. I have been praying all week that his surgery will go smoothly with absolutely no complications and that this surgery will relieve my dad of the constant pain he has been in.

Knowing that tomorrow we will be spending the day at the hospital on pins and needles waiting to hear from the Doctors,waiting to see my dad in recovery. Reminds me of the last three times we spent the day waiting while our little man was under the knife. This time we will have him to distract us.I am thankful for that.
