Today I turned 40 finally. It has been long coming and yeah I am just one of a few who looks forward to it. Now the count down is on to turn 50! Its only 3649 days away! So what did I do to celebrate such a milestone, I went out and danced and karaoke last night until 2 am. I had the best time. Lots a friends came to celebrate with me.
So I do have a funny story about kids and not knowing your age. Jeffery the other day said Mom it's your birthday coming and aren't you going to be 34 yrs old. I just looked at him and said yeah then I would have had to be like 15 when I had you and 13 when I had Sam. He said your older then that I said yeppers I am old lady. He said well I was telling my friends at school how much younger my mom is from theirs and they all have moms in their 40's to 50. I said well I am I am old and I will be 40. So today he called and said happy birthday and asked what I got. I said nothing I am to old for gifts. He said oh but you did get a gift peace and quiet from kids. I said that is true but I would have rather had you all here.
On another note.......
Mick got moved over to Pendleton yesterday. He will be here for 3 weeks. He will be helping me after surgery on Wed. It will be a change for me for I was just starting to enjoy my quiet place alone. It will be nice because I have many restrictions after surgery.
As for my surgery I have to report in at 6am. It will take 3-4 hours. They will not have to put me under full anesthesia just a spinal tap like if I was delivering c-section. She says she is worried because she does not know what all is falling now. My ligaments attached to my tailbone has been tearing due to falling and it has been hurting badly. I cant sit for long periods of time and any kind of pain medication makes me sick so I just live with it for now. They have prescribed a few kinds but I just can't take it. I learned something new that is Redheads have a bigger chance of this happening to them. I will hopefully be going home Saturday that's if my bladder is doing OK.
Judy I hope you can brings the girls one day to see me after surgery. It would be fun to have JC feed the fish.
We will be there! You name the day. I teach school Tues and thurs, but we are free most other times. Maybe we will come see you in the hospital! SOrry I didn't get to call today. Happy Birthday!! It was a really bad day, and we were gone for church.
