YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, where do I start? The beginning is always good. LOL, ok really, not that funny.

This week has been really hectic. I work part time at our local grocery store, in the meat department. I also have two children, one three and one six months. My husband and I do not make enough money to put them in daycare so that I can work full time, so my mother has kept them whilst I worked after having my youngest, Sophia. Well, on Friday she called me right as I was about to go back to work from lunch telling me that I had to come get the girls. She couldn't stop Sophie from screaming (teething) and Makayla wasn't listening to her! Take note here that I was late to work Friday morning because my alarm clock did not go off that morning (thankyou stupid thunderstorm) so my boss wasn't exactly happy with me to begin with. I had to call him and tell him that I had to leave work for the rest of the day to go and get my children. So I go and do that and get everyone home and settled. Later that afternoon I start getting stomach pain. I thought I had a run of the mill stomach virus and thought nothing of it until later when it got so bad that I couldn't even stand up. The nausea itself was terrible!!! My darling husband had to call 911, wake our girls and follow the ambulance to the emergency room. After finally getting checked out by the doctor they ruled all viral causes out and ordered a cat scan of my abdomen. They then found that it was my appendix and I was rushed down to Roper hospital for a Laparscopic Appendectomy (forgive me if I spelled that wrong) that was 1 am Saturday morning I think ( I was a bit out of it as I think that they gave me something for the pain after they found out that it was my appendix). I was rushed down there and they got me ready for surgery I don't remember much but I do remember that they strapped my arms and legs down to the table before surgery ( did not like that part one bit) then they put the little anesthetic face mask thingee on me and it felt like it stayed on there for a while and it felt like it wasn't working. I started to freak out thinking that they were going to start the surgery on me before I was out. Like I said I don't remember much before they brought me round after the surgery.

After I woke up my vision was really blurry but they said that it was because of the gel stuff that they put on my eyes pre op, my throat was really sore but that was because of the tube that they put down my throat (not sure what that part was for) and I was really sore from my ribcage up especially on my right side. Oh, and sometime before I was really awake my iv burst and soaked my left arm and hospital gown with iv fluid and blood (really not cool). I'm home now and recovering thankfully. Everything is still really sore and I'm kindof scared to take a shower because all they put on my insicions (which there are three) is this clear derma bond stuff) and I'm scared it's going to dissolve or something. I'm going to call the dr in the morning.

I'm going to be at my mother's house for the next day or so until I can start lifting again. The doctor said that I can't really lift anything over three pounds for the next two weeks so it's going to be interesting to see how my mother and I get on. We love eachother better from our own houses.

Oh, I got a new puppy!!! I almost forgot about him. He is sooo wonderful. He's a daschund chiuahha mix and black and tan. So completely cute and loyal. He has stayed with me all day since we got home, and he will be going with me and the girls when we get to my mothers. Oh, his name is Maximillon Wadford. The newest addition to our family.
