Well, it’s that time again….Time for the Monday morning weigh-in.<\/p>\n
And……drum roll please………<\/p>\n
Okay, lets just all remember that it was the week leading up to Halloween and that Halloween landed on a Saturday and how are you supposed to work with that…and well……<\/p>\n
I lost weight!<\/p>\n
YAH!<\/p>\n
I am down to 191.8lbs. That’s 2 lbs down from last week. I’m getting there slowly. It doesn’t help that I’m still not feeling 100%. This has been the WORST couple of weeks. From when I got sick on Thanksgiving…I think that I’ve had a total of 3 days that I felt okay….the rest have been varying degrees of suckage. <\/p>\n
Oh well, I think I am starting to feel better, but the kids seem to keep spreading the germs around like they’re something to be shared. Geli had a fever yesterday, and looks like she’s not doing so hot today and is coughing, but no fever….WEIRD!!! Jeremy and Siah are hacking up a lung and as you can imagine…that’s not a pretty sight!<\/p>\n
I really want to just feel better and to have ONE of my at home days with no (okay, just Siah) children. They are feeling “just okay enough” to not be confined to their beds….but I can’t send them to school. Not Cool, people! NOT COOL!<\/p>\n
Alrighty then……enough whining and moaning about all of that…….<\/p>\n
Hey! How about an update on my dad?<\/p>\n
It was so nice of me to just throw that bit of news out there and then to not update on anything…..<\/p>\n
He is doing great….actually he’s better than great. Apparently, having your cornea cookie cutter-ed out of your eye ball is NO BIG DEAL AT ALL!<\/p>\n
In fact, when I was talking to dad a few hours after the surgery….he was all cheery and peppy and it was almost a treat for him to have his eye ball massacred. In fact, NO LIE….he said that it was better than going to the dentist. While I’m not a huge fan of the dentist, I can’t fathom how having a giant needle poked into your eye ball and shot up with freezing….having your eye lids pried open with retractor’s….having a ring sewn onto your eye and then a razor sharp cookie cutter pressed down and twisted onto your eye to removed the cornea….yah…I think I’ll stop right there because I’m grossing myself out and I’ve already heard about it a few times…..so I should be desensitized to it all.<\/p>\n
So, the long and the short of it is that he’s doing great….better than great. His eye looks a little creepy, but what can you expect when they “Frankenstein” you up.<\/p>\n
I will warn you to NOT look at this picture if you are squeamish…….YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!!!!!<\/p>\n
Dad’s Eye!<\/a><\/p>\n If you look closely, you can see all the little stitches…..pretty cool, eh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, it’s that time again….Time for the Monday morning weigh-in.
