I've been completely MIA, but I have been reading all of your lovely posts :o)
Things have been a little crazy in the last week especially. Most of which I won't comment on, but it's just been a little "blah" around here. One thing I will talk about to get the word out is...PLEASE go to the DR. when you have a stomach ache! This is nothing to mess around with. My father-in-law went into the hospital on Friday with pains in his stomach that he had been suffering with for MONTHS. Yeah, way to go, dad. He kept telling everyone that it was a strained muscle.
The diagnosis is Diverticulitis. It's gross, but I included the link if you feel so inclined to read more about it. Because he went for so long an abscess was created that eventually burst, creating a giant hole in his intestines. (Hope you girls aren't eating breakfast). SO, for the last month or so, guess what's been filling up in his abdomen? This lead to 2 drainage tubes and today we find out what can be done to repair the hole. If the infection of the tissue (in the intestines) is cleared up enough they can just sew it all back together. If not, he might end up with a temporary Colostomy bag. Gross, but true. So go to the doctor!!
I'm determined to make this a good week tho. Because on a Positive Note:
I have been working on some projects for ME. They aren't prefect, but they are mine and I will still be proud of the finished project. Here is the quilt that I started. It's getting there, but I think I can get it done soon.
AND Thank you to Krystal of Krystal's Kitsch! I just won a really great Nature Valley prize pack to start off my week! PLEASE check out her blog, she's got lots to say about her fun weekends, wedding plans, back to school and of course, awesome things to give-a-way!!
Oh my goodness I can't wait to see your finished quilt! How fun. And YAY for winning things! Awesome.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for participating, I appreciate it! Good luck to your FIL, I hope he heals quickly and the infection clears up a lot!
Hooray! I'm so glad you won! You totally deserved it. :D
ReplyDeleteAnd, not to be gross, but when I tried to comment last time the CAPCHA thing or whatever it's called asked me to type in: Joy Ases. I mean, that's pretty much asses. And that's all I have to say about that. lol
ReplyDeleteI hope your FIL is ok! How awesome that you're making your own quilt. I am still trying to work on the one I started last year! I hope we get to see pictures when you're done!
