Well this was some day. I had my appointment and will have a complete hysterectomy on April 30th. After my appointment we rushed to the hospital in Chickasha. My mom had been rushed there by paramedics. She was at a doctors appointment and had a reaction to dye they had given her for a test. She had to be revived and rushed to the ER. SHe is now in ICU. I will go back tomorrow to be with her. It looks like we will be moving back home and taking care of her in her home. What a day! I'm exhausted and need to take some pain meds. Good Night!

is everyone ticking me off today?! My son Josh had me so furious this morning I wanted to punch him in the mouth...really hard!!! His attitude is about to get his butt kicked!! He thinks he knows it all and I know squat. I'm trying to teach him how to drive and he won't listen at all. So I hope he fails his driving test! Is that mean of me or what? Then my mom calls me this morning. She hasn't called me in a week and all of a sudden she needs something and calls me. She wants me to come out to her house and replace some boards  on her deck.  WTFudge?  Do I look like a carpenter?  NO!!  She got all pissed...to bad, so sad. This is pretty much my last week here at home. I will begin job hunting next week, that's why I have been getting most of the packing done now. I told her I would be gone starting Monday and she got ticked over that. Our moving is because of her. She was moving into an apartment in town and we were moving into her house in the country. It's my inheritence, it's paid for so we would be saving a lot of money each month and could afford to drive back and fourth, and I would not have to work and could take care of her. Then with out warning she tells us she is not moving out. Now she has tons of repairs to do and land to take care of and that is why she had the stroke. *sigh* I'm to the point I can't wait to move. She won't be able to bother me with petty stuff and come running at her becking call. If it's not my teenage son it's my mom! He's moving into her house when we move to Norman. He won't be there much because of school and work. Boy what a pair!

She looks much better today. She is still weak and her left leg is still numb, but she can walk pretty good. The doctor didn't have any of the test results so he could not  tell us anything new. She may get to go home tomorrow or Saturday. I came on home after the doctor left. I'm tired and need to relax. My DH had his doctor appointment today and is released to go back to work Monday. He will have to have back surgery but for the time being it can wait. They also discussed him having the Lap Band surgery for weight loss. So we will be checking into that.  Right now  DH is with our son Brad, talking to the Army recruiter. Since the age of 3 Brad has wanted to join the Army like his father. The recruiter told him as soon as he has finished training, he will be sent to Iraq or Afghanistan. I was hoping that would change his mind but no. He still wants to join and serve his country. I'm already worried and scared and he hasn't even enlisted yet.  My DH was in the 1st Gulf War and I know all to well what I face. Lots of sleepless nights full of worry and prayers. My DH knows what he will face on the battlefield...none of it is pretty. I hate that for him! I hate that any of our men and young boys have to go and fight over there. When it will end?

I'm never up this early *lol* I am pretty sure I will coming home later today to nap. I'm about to head to my moms house to get her a few things, check on her house and dogs. Then I'm taking DH to his moms so they can go to their doctors appointments. Then I will go out to the hospital to be with mom. I hope they get her out of ICU today. Those rooms are so stinkin small. When she goes to a private room I will stay out at the hospital with her. They are always good about fixing me up with a bed in the same room. I'm not sure what the day holds....Good news? Bad news?

I'm off... 

I slept in this morning...which was soooo nice. But shortly after waking up, my mom called and didn't sound good. She was telling me about some symptoms she was having and I knew right away it was a stroke. After all I am a nurse. So anyway, she finally decided she needed me to come get her and take her to the ER. That is where I spent my whole day. They got her into ICU a bit ago and she is resting. I may go back out tonight to see her. I'm not sure. I have to go to her house tomorrow morning and grab a few things for her and feed the dogs. I'm not sure what all will be going on with her. I tomorrow she will have a MRI done. From there I don't know what's going to happen. I am so exhausted. It's amazing how tired you get from sitting and waiting. I may just stay in tonight and rest up for my day at the hospital tomorrow. Have a good night!
