Here is Sunday....
And with work, The lady who has been giving me projects leaves for a 2 week vacation, so, I might be home, instead of working on light duty, if no one has any work for me. That is the COLD reality I face. Yes, I will still get some money, but I feel "more productive as a person" when I am working.
Friday is my doctor appointment, so, at least we will have a better idea on that.
My DH booked tickets Thursday night for us to go down th last week in May, to see his parents in California for a week. His dad is going through the process of getting a bone marrow transplant, and after DH stopped by his aunts house (about a week ago) and had a frank talk about his dad & how he is doing & the surgery itself, my husband was very firm that we needed to go down there. DH's aunt is his dad's sister. Anyways, taking a stab in the dark with the first numbers.... any surgery has risks of you "not making it off of the table" say the number is like one in two-hundred thousand. His dad's bone marrow surgery is one in fifty that do not make it off of the table. This honestly scared my husbad.
So, there is the update.

Oh, THANK YOU, sweet Michelle!!!! hugs & kisses for you & your family as well.
Today was my last dat at work, too.
They "ran out" of light-duty projects for me, so, now I am home, unless the phone rings & work has found me a project!!!
Trying to keep a positive attitude here.
I go back to the doc on Friday to discuss the results of the MRI & my treatment plan.
I am still going to Physical Therapy 3 times a week too.
Kiss MISS Sadie for me!!!
