multipurposegoddessThey 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 and loads washed and by the time stuff was coming out of the dryer I still couldn't put an outfit together - bad planning on my part - and it was getting late. Talked to my mom at that point, she said that was maybe for the best because my dad feels like he should be in host mode even when he's lying in a hospital bed. And once they got the pain relieved, he was sleeping most of the time, anyway.
In fact, he fell asleep while she was there this evening, so she tiptoed out so as not to wake him, and shortly after she left they woke him up to tell him the plan for tomorrow. When he couldn't reach her at home, he called me, so I did get to talk to him a bit. He sounded groggy.
So, off to transcarquenesia in the morning - I have washed many loads of laundry and damn well better be able to get dressed. I also need to pack an overnight bag - tomorrow is my 5th wedding anniversary, Henry and I have reservations at Gaia , planning on getting massages and whatever else looks good at the spa.
So tired.
