Another update

Today I got a phone call at work from James. For those who don't know, about 2 weeks ago, my son was in Phenix City at his grandma's when she called to say he was bleeding from his mouth and it was a dark color....almost black. So, we headed up there and met them at the ER. The doctor looked in his mouth and couldn't see anything and sent us off. This concerned us because it was not red like normal blood would be. We decided if it happened again, we would take him to his doctor. Well, that was today....I ended up having to leave work early and James and I went to Phenix City and picked him up. We then brought him to Opelika to his doctor. His doctor is concerned too. But, since it has only happened twice, he wants to see if there is a 3rd episode. So, if it happens again, we are to either take him right there or take a picture so the dr. can look at it. From there, he will send Thomas to a specialist and then we will go from there.

I will keep you all posted.

Okay, okay I got the point!!!

LOL....several people have been saying "you need to update your blog"!!! So, I am here to do that. I can't promise I will be a regular poster but I will try.

At the end of April, I had surgery on my hand. They had to cut in 4 places: carpal tunnel, sheath release and 2 lumps removed to be tested. My hand/arm looks like a road map!!!! I was out of work for 3 weeks. I went to the doctor today and the wrist area is still swollen and hurting. I go back in 1 month. If it is not better, there is a possibility that he may have to go back in and do a sheath release in that area, too. I will keep you posted on that. Praying that it heals so we don't have to do that. Oh, and the lumps tested negative for anything.

For Mother's Day, I got a great gift: a new car...well, new to me. A 2008 Ford Focus with 13,000 miles....love it!!!! James also got his Father's Day giftts early: a 357 magnum revolver, a shotgun, a laptop, a gun case and the Ronco knife set with block storage. But, I think my gift ws the best!!! LOL

Thomas received the most wonderful gift at the end of May: a cross-stitched quilt. An organization has volunteers that stitch the cross-stitch squares for these quilts and then quilters finish them. His theme was horses which he loves. The picture should be above. It is a beautiful quilt made with a lot of love.

Wednesday night, James and I came home to an awful sight. My cat was sitting in the middle of the dining room floor and laying beside her was a small, dead mouse. I have never had that happen since living here. It must have gotten in the house either when the back door or front door was opened. Yuck!!! I am surprised she got the mouse....this would be her first one. I knew I had a great bug catcher but now I know I have a good mouser, too.

This weekend I have a 4 day weekend. I took 2 days off to have a mini vacation. I am looking forward to family time and rest.

In October, we are heading to New York for 2 weeks. We are flying. It will be Thomas's first flight and James's 2nd one. I am looking forward to taking them up there and show them around and do the "tourist" stuff.

Well, I am back to finish my blog. I enjoyed my Friday off and have tomorrow off, too. I had so many expectations of what I wanted to get done this weekend but I guess God had other plans and wanted me to rest a little. In the middle of the night(Friday), I ended up getting really sick. I had some kind of stomach bug. Saturday, off and on, I spent in bed sleeping. Today, I am doing much better but hubby is not feeling well. We were going to head to Lake Martin but don't know if we will now.

Right now, I am working on my greeting cards for a swap I am in. I have to do 17 cards. I was all set with my idea but then could not find the stamp I wanted to use so I had to substitute. I think the stamp I chose will work.

After I finish the greeting cards, I need to work on some ATC cards for a swap.

Having one of my favorite dinners tonight: Baked Tilapia, steamed yellow squash with onions and probably some buttered rice. I was thinking of baking the fish with cracker crumbs on it but I don't think I will. I think I will just season it. My favorite fish are tilapia and orange roughy.

Well, I better get this published so you have something to read. When my cards and ATC's are done then I hopefully will remember to get pictures of them and post them.

Have a good day, everyone!

Surgery went well
