Much better today

I just got back from the hospital a short while ago. Everything went great with my Uncle, and he is doing fine, thank you all for your prayers. They only did the neck part of the surgery. No word yet on when they will do the artery to his kidney. I'm just happy everything is fine for now. I was really worried about my poor Aunt G. She is the baby of a large family, and doesn't handle stress very well, but she is doing very well too.

In other news.....I seem to have it in for myself here lately. Last Thursday I dropped a tool box on my foot. You know, one of those really big ones that go in the bed of a truck. Go ahead and say it...I'm a genius. I didn't break anything, but it hurt like hell for a few days. Well, this morning while cleaning up Boo's room I managed to slam my finger in the closet, (damn WD40), I forgot how well it slides now and pushed it a little too hard with my finger in the way. Now it's twice it's size and purple and also hurts like hell. You should see me trying to type without screaming in pain, lol. I think I need to just stay in bed so that I won't hurt myself, yeah like that would/could happen.

So far so good, and maybe bad

Well, we came through the storm okay. We mainly got a lot of wind and rain. Lots and lots of rain. They kept the schools closed today, since they had used some of them for shelters, but they will be open tomorrow. Yeah, I'm soooo glad the kids will be back at school tomorrow. My house needs to be cleaned bad after this 4 day weekend, lol.
Thanks y'all for your comments, it is so appreciated. It does help get me through the rough days knowing that I have an outlet here, and so many awesome women that I can share with.

Tomorrow after I take the short people to school I will be going over to the hospital to spend the day with my Mom and a couple of Aunts, ( and who knows who else). My Uncle is having surgery to unblock the arteries in his neck and a major artery to his kidneys. It's very dangerous surgery and they are not sure what his chances are for even making it through the surgery. The doctors said that they were surprised he hadn't had a stroke or heart attack yet. I have a step-cousin-in-law, ( what a mouthful), that is a critical care nurse. She said she believes the reason they did not do the surgery right away, (last week), was to give him time with his family in case he does not make it. So it really doesn't sound good. If y'all would, please keep them in your prayers. I have a feeling it's going to be a long, scary day.

Thanks again. I will post again as soon as I can and let y'all know how everything goes.
