I guess I have been busy. I know I frequently think about things I would like to write about but don't quite come up with the down time to think them through much less actually write something to go here ( Read more... )

Got over to my folks' house about noon, yesterday. Traffic was not a problem, though it looked awful going the other direction. Put together the Turkey Stew with Stuffing Dumplings, which turned out delicious. The stew is turkey, sweet potatoes, chicken stock, and some herbs and spices, basically. Delicious.

They found a blockage in his small intestine and they're operating tomorrow morning - dad said they'll try another laproscopic procedure, which would be nice.

I didn't get over there to see him today - I went to get dressed and coudln't put together an out fit that I could leave the house in, so I started doing laundry and getting everything sorted ( Read more... )

What was happening with me yesterday? Oh, right:

• 08:24 Dad had to go to ER last night, getting gall bladder out today. #fb
• 15:46 Gall bladder is gone, dad is already answering the phone, sounds like everything went well. Whew!
