i was feeling better than i had in a long time. craig and i went to his
sister and
brother-in-law's house to
babysit their
children. we wore them out early. they went to bed without
protest. after they were
asleep, i promptly konked out. i had to be up pretty
early.
i tested for my
purple belt and passed with flying colours. i am glad. it was my last time at the studio before i go in for
surgery. i don't know how long i'll have to take off from
practice, but i am glad to have gotten the next belt beforehand.
later that
afternoon, craig and i invited my
sister and
brother over for
dinner. they didn't stay long, jenn wasn't feeling too well, but it was
nice to see them.
slept until 2pm.
WOW! that felt good. went for a
wonderful dinner at The Palm. Craig had a
big big prime rib, i had some
chicken, and we ordered the
asparagus as a side. A bottle of
merlot topped the meal off nicely. then we went back to my house were
vegetables for a while. went to sleep around 1am.
wake up, get dressed, walk the
dog,
kiss craig goodbye (such an
angel when he's
sleeping), and head to
work. here i am.
my mother arrives sometime late this
evening. she's going to be helping me out while i'm down and out after the
surgery. i'm so glad she's coming down. i
love my
mom.
more later...
feeling kinda (okay, REALLY)
poopy, so i leave work early. if it was just
pain i'd stay at work, but i don't want to stray too far from my
toilet today, if'n you know what i mean. when i got home i was pleased to see that
craig is still here.
since ma is coming
tonight, i decided to clean a bit.
now there's a nice loud
thunderstorm outside (that i
hope isn't slowing
mom's drive here), and i'm
smoking a bowl. i'm trying to hold off on
pain killer usage this
afternoon. it's leaving me wonky and
mom is coming over.
