I should be doing dishes. I think I'll do this instead. If I sit here and look intent on something, maybe everyone will think I'm doing banking or something. I'll be sure to let out a heavy sigh every now and again.
I had a crappy day today.
I had a dentist apt at 12:00. I woke up sick and it just got worse. It was so bad, I had "back sweat". I don't know if that's something only fat people get or if it happens to everyone who's losing their mind. As it got closer to the time to leave, the sicker I got. My Mom showed up at about 11:00 to drive me to town. They told me I would need a driver. We got half way there and had to turn around and come home so I could swallow some more stomache medicine. I was hoping she would just tell me to call and cancel. Everyone knows my Mother doesn't have a lot of tolerance. I think maybe she was getting some sick satisfaction from my misery....you know, like maybe she considered it payback for when I was a pain in the ass in 1983. Anywho, lucky for me I had written down the apt time wrong and I was already to late. Bummer.
Ok, so I have to go pick up another round of anti-biotics (the third) and go back in on the 18th. They also prescribed Valium. Quite a bit of it. I am to start taking it the night before my apt.
Whatever.
Gk is doing pretty good today. He is still having really bad swelling in his ankles and pain in his feet and knees. He is on his third day of prednisone and not noticing much of a difference yet. A physical therapist came to the house yesterday and will be back tomorrow. I don't know how PT will help with the swelling, he needs to just put his feet up. Try telling him that. I mean he knows, it's just getting him to do it.
Tomorrow afternoon we go in for his Lupron shot. That's the hormone shot for his cancer. It cost's a thousand dollars, so after he gets it we all joke around about GK and his "Golden Ass".
I made him and Wyatt sack lunches today to have while I was gone. Wyatt ended up going with us and GK ate most of his before I left. He is steadily gaining, when he got home his weight was downt to 171, now he's at 187. Still my goal weight, but great for him. He still has ten or so to go, but he's getting there.
Wyatt had his first day of summer vacation today. He cleaned his room. Did you see it on his blog yesterday? It looked like my room before I married Mike : )
He spent quite a bit of time in the pasture tonight looking at the dead sheep. It's been dead for almost a month now, so it looks more like a sheep skin rug with a skull that stinks. He thinks it's pretty cool.
I really need to go do the dishes now.
See Ya
