Only about 13 hours left and I'm heading home. Can't wait! Wish I could just go to sleep right now and poof. I'd wake up and it would be 1:00 p.m. Tuesday and I would be at the apartment with my sweet boy. I'm actually kind of proud of how I've handled being away from Colby. Okay, there was that 1 complete meltdown, but that was only because of the not-having-internet fiasco. Once that was resolved, I've done fairly well (don't you think). I'm VERY proud of Mr. Colby. I hear he's doing quite well, the antibiotic must be working thank goodness. He's taking longer, more frequent bi-pap breaks. I Skyped with him twice today. It was great to see that 1-toothed face and hear those jabbers of his. He'll only be in school 1 day this week. He actually didn't have school today because of parent/teacher conferences. I wasn't comfortable letting someone else get him up and ready for school (it's not an easy job you know) so I decided to just keep him home tomorrow. Wednesday is his Cincy appointment, but as long as he's feeling okay, I'll send him to school Thursday.
I stayed up late last night and watched a movie, Country Strong, so I slept in this morning. My dad came over and got the van, took it to get the oil changed, check the tires, etc, so we'll be ready for the upcoming Cincy trip. I haven't really done much else today. Finished reading The Help. Can't wait to see the movie. Started working on my taxes, boring. Did the last load of laundry I brought over here, even more boring. Got some stuff already packed and in the Terd. I have tomorrow all planned out. #1 - Sleep as late as I can, although I'm sure I'll be chomping at the bit to get up and out of here. #2 - Pack up the rest of my stuff. #3 - Shower and get dressed. Hmmm, which sweats shall I wear, the black or the gray, decisions, decisions. #4 - At 12:00 p.m., call Pizza King to order a small, extra cheese, sausage and mushroom pizza for carryout. #5 - 12:15 p.m. - Pick up pizza deliciousness. #6 - Get home around 12:30, bridge traffic pending. My friend Kim is going to come over and help me unload the van so I can get inside and get to loving on the kid of mine! At 3:00 his bath aide will be there so we can get him cleaned up. That's as far as I've gotten so far. And of course I have to give my valentine his present (an IU hat and a new Spongebob movie).
There you have it, today and tomorrow summed up in 2 extremely mundane paragraphs. I'm starting to get really worried about this cyst on Colby's rib and his appointment on Wednesday. Can't believe it's finally here. I hate meeting new doctors. If you have a little extra time or energy, could you throw up a prayer to the Big Guy that things turn out okay on this and the cyst is nothing to worry about? Honestly, I think the bad medical news in our home just needs to take a rest for a while. A long while, please and thank you. Okay, time to get some sleep. We're going to be very busy the next few days.
