Where Does the Time Go?
Just about had another heart attack when the bills started coming in from the last one. We're at $60,000 and counting. *Paragraph break* The children are doing well in school, so far. Ryan has declared that he likes Kindergarten better than he liked pre-school. He gets on the bus like a little trouper at 12:30 PM, then gets to ride home with his sister and the neighbor boy. *Yesterday, I had a doctor appointment in the morning so delivered Ryan to his other grandparents for a couple of hours. Grandma Judy plopped him in the tub before I picked him up since he had been playing in the dirt. We had lunch, blah, blah, then went out to wait for the bus. I noticed that his shorts were on backwards, so we hid in front of the car to do a quick rearrangment. Just as I had his shorts off, here came the bus! The driver honked because she didn't see us--which is good. We didn't want her to! We got his britches up just in time. Another crisis averted! *The doc spent quite a bit of time with me. He is the cardiologist that attended me at Clarian West Hospital before they shipped me off to Methodist. He remembered our "drive-in fire department" run on the day of the heart attack and commented that the paramedic from PFD detected what was going on. "That's a little unusual." (I really must bake something to take over there to those guys.) He doubled the dose on my heart medicine and prescribed nitroglycerin as "insurance". He said I should take it if I had any heart pain (which I haven't had). I said, "If I am having heart pain, shouldn't I be calling 911 instead of taking pills?" He said yes..."Take a pill...then another. By the third one, you should be talking to them on the other end of the phone." Heh heh. You bet I will!! *Am supposed to be getting a new bathroom floor today. I will be happy to get the bathroom done, once and for all! It has been torn up for over a week. (Thank goodness we have another bathroom!) *I finally signed up on Facebook on the urging of former students. I am absolutely amazed at the people who come out of the woodwork on there! *More later. Gotta go get some things out of the way for the flooring dude...
