Fine II

DaGoddess @ 21:15

My dad just had a second, unexpected surgery today. They went in and cleaned things up a little more and he’s doing okay.

I saw my doctor today to follow up after the nerve conduction testing. There is evidence of impairment based on the EMG and the doc agrees that it’s time. It’s time for a visit to the surgeon. Now it’s time to wait for them to call. My doc isn’t sure if we’re looking at surgery on just the neck or if we’re talking about the whole back.

All this waiting and nothing to wear.

In other news, I won dinner for 4 at Outback from a local radio station and a gift card for $100 for a day spa from a local TV station. Turned out that the dinner prize also included five CDs and two concert tickets. All for just being a mom and entering a silly drawing.

It takes so little to amuse and distract me.

Ooooh! Look! There’s a pretty shiny thing over in the corner! Gotta go!

P.S. If you’re curious enough to check out photos I took of the living legend mentioned in a post…click here.

    You are ‘Just’ a mom like Everest is ‘Just’ a mountain… Hopefully you get to pick the CD’s and concert :).. I’d say front row center for Toby Keith and a few signed CD’s would be apporpriate :)

  2. No such luck on the CDs and concert. I’d have chosen B.B. King with Joe Bonamassa on August 3rd. 1) Because I love Bonamassa and 2) because tix are $95 each. OUCH!

    As for the CDs, I got a collection of remastered John Mellen Cougarcamp recordings.

    No worries, I can send those off in a care package to the troops. I know there have to be a few fans out there somewhere.
