Vacation time

My husband is I am on VACATION from work which is really nice this will be the first year we actually get a vacation together usually we don't get to be off together. We actually had some good time off. The kids have been at school all day and the weather has been wonderful so we are getting some stuff done around the house I have been wanting done. Hopefully on Thursday we are going to take a mini vacation since it will be our Anniversary don't know where we are going but are going somewhere.

First Day of School

Thursday was the first day of school, I think the kids had a good day. My son came home and told me that he sought this year was going to be a good year for him. The last few years he has gotten kicked out of school near the end cause this one kids would pick on him and Anthony don't take any crap and hits back and he is always the one getting into trouble, but the one kid is not in now of his classes this year and even not in his lunch I think he said he was in morning recess but he does not see him much I hope its a good year. Emilee had a good day too, except her hearing aids weren't working got some fresh batteries so on Monday we will try them again.


I had my final surgery Thursdays to help my bladder. When I came out I was more sick and alot of pain. Took me couple more days to get better and had to take pain meds and man do i hate taking them you always feel weird and every time I fall asleep i dream really weird. Doing alot better today so I haven't taken any pain med still sore just trying to do with out and taking it easy.

Getting ready for school

Last week we went to the eye doctor to get our eyes check for school, I usually do all three kids at the same time or we go same time. They took my step daughter back first and was fast but when it came time for the little ones they were slow, I think we were their for 2 hours. Then I finally get done with Emilee and we pick her up some glasses and then I was going to help Stephanie to decide what she wants and they had already took care of everything was kind of upset cause I wanted to help her and they didn't even asked me what I wanted to do. Stephanie has two different insurance I would have put the glasses thru my insurance but instead they put her contacts and then it was to late. My stepdaughter said they were being pushy I told her next time tell them you want to wait for you mom.

So had a very good weekend once a month we have a girls nite or day out their is 8 of us and we all have a month and we have to decide what we want to do. One of the girls had us come over and we all brought stuff to eat and then we played Dance, Dance, Revolution on the xbox that was fun not very good. Then we watch a movie but think we all had fun, we missed Kelly and Tasha. Then on Sunday My husband has way toooo many clothes so I did some cleaning moving stuff around. I gave my husband my dresser, gave my son his dresser and I kept my sons dresser. The dresser my son has is my mom when she was in High school and it is still in good shape. For the next 19 days I am going to be off 4 of the days I will be recovering from another surgery to help my bladder then hopefully vacation time with my family and we have a Anniversary coming up.

Surgery

Thursday I had to have surgery, I had called a interstim but in the back of my tailbone on the nerve of my bladder to stimulate it so I don't go as much, some days I go as many as 12 times a day . Right now I have a Temporary stimulater on and if its work which is I will have permanent one in the week or 2. Everyone wanted to know why I don't try medicine well I have and none of it work but this new thing I got really works kind of weird. Sometimes I feel like oh my god I haven't gone to the bathroom yet. I will test it out when we go to Iowa City on Monday and see how many times we have to stop. Since I had this surgery I wasnt able to go out with girls nite out to the scavenger hunt was really tired, realize I was taking pain meds wrong I was taking every 4 hours instead of I should have taken every 6 hours, I should read stuff when you have alot of meds from the hospital have someonelse read for you lol. Sorry girls I really missed out sound like they had a blast guess we have to plan another one another time.

Here is a class reunion pic of me and my husband someone took, not a good pic of me but sought I post it anyway!

Canton IL.

I went to Canton IL, this weekend to go to my husband class reunion. We usually stay with his mother but his one sister still had alot of her stuff still in the one bedrooms so we got a hotel at baymount Inn. We checked into our hotel on Friday was able to get and no problems, Came back about midnight could not get into our room some reason the door handle was stuck so we had to get help to get in after half hour standing out side we got into our hotel. Then Saturday morning we leave to go into town we were having trouble shutting our door so I tell them we are going to be gone if they could fix our door, they said no problem they would look at it and try to fix, so we come back late that nite and cant get into our room, so I go back to the desk and they tell me they totally moved our room and our stuff, kind of made mad, They should gave me a discount i guess they did took a whole 10.00 off my bill I guess that is better then nothing.



Now since you heard about my hotel problem I guess I could tell you how the class reunion went. Now the people who don't know me know that Jim is 10 years older then me so when I was at the class reunion I think I was the youngest one they probably sought I was in my 20's cause I look so young (some days i wish i was still in my 20s lol). I have learned alot going to this class reunion that some people just never change. I got to meet alot of people that my husband ran around with, then you get to see the one that are better then everyonelse. I guess they never change. Friday nite they had a thing at the bowling alley, no one really bowled just more of a drunk fest if you want my opinion, yes Connie be so proud of me I didn't drink anything at all this weekend except for pop. Then on Saturday we had a dinner at the Golf club we had really good food. They had a raffle where you can buy some tickets and put your name on them and put it in a box to win a basket with Canton Little Giants that is where my husband went to school and yes they drew is name, he was excited. Something else that we learned at the class reunion that their was another couple that is from Burlington Iowa, kind of weird Jim never new. We had a really good time other wise being away from home. My husband enjoyed seeing his family.
