Busy Week Ahead

Our fun weekend is over, and the only people leftover (snicker) are my sister and Daisy. They are staying across town with youngest sister, so we're at home, alone, preparing ourselves for a medical week.

I get to visit my dentist tomorrow----a routine, not an emergency. So aside from getting there on time and keeping my mouth open, there isn't much preparation. Except I have to remember to take antibiotics for all dental work since I had a knee replacement.

But Good Guy has surgery in Green Bay on Tuesday afternoon. He's classified as an outpatient and we will probably be released by evening. But we'll stay in a motel there overnight, so he can sleep off his anesthetic in peace and we'll drive home in the morning. So I need all my entertainments around me. Netbook, knitting, book, stationery so I can catch up on letter-writing. You'd think he was having a two day procedure done. But you never know what you will feel like.

That's all the medical stuff, but our week is built around it. I'm supposed to have a bunch of quilt squares done by December 1, and I should have been working on it this weekend, but I was just hanging out with my family instead. Lucky me.

In an entirely unrelated subject, the weather has turned wet, windy, and cold. Going out to walk takes real will power---or a frisky puppy. (Daisy got me out for a while this morning.) My walking partner has had a house full of company, so our usual time hasn't been convenient for her. I am pretty dependent on her for getting me out, and vice versa.

I will return and all will be well. Hold that thought.

  2. Sending prayers for your hubby's medical procedure.

    And I totally agree with you re: staying in the motel. You never know how you're gonna feel, so I think that's a wise choice.

  3. Were you going to sneak in and out of town, just like a thief in the night?! No pressure, but I'd love to stop by and say hi, if you're up for it! I'll send you my cell number, just in case.

  4. Dentist appts. I have to gear myself up for them........childhood trauma.

    Goodguy will be okey dokey (this I know) and you are SUPPOSED to take twice as many projects as needed. It's the "girl law". Start with the easy one first!

    I'll be with you this week (in mind not body) giving you both hugs. Keep warm & safe.

    Hugs

  6. Sounds like a horrible week for you--the dentist and husband's surgery! You really do need that walking time to relax and charge up. Hope all goes well for you and your hubby! Hang in.
