A shower would be nice!

Wow, I have really been neglecting this blogging thing! I come on here every day to check out my dear friends' lives but I have been neglecting to write about mine. Probably because for one it is boring and for two I really don't have the time! But, luckily or unluckily for you....right now I have more than enough time on my hands. Here's the story....

I have been in Redmond since monday, mostly in the hospital. Now, hold your britches...I'm not the one IN the hospital but I have BEEN here for several days. A friend of mine had cancer in her kidney and it was enlarged to the size of a grapefruit so needless to say they decided to take it out. That was Tuesday morning. My whole family came over for it so we had a motel for monday and tuesday night. Her husband had work to do after that so he went home on Wednesday and I have been staying in the hospital with her since. The couch makes in to a surprisingly comfy bed! Anyways, someone has to be here with her to make sure she is being taken care of. It has actually been a really good thing because they had to take out part of a rib and she has COPD so it hurts when she coughs. It is hard enough to get a nurse in here to take care of not so urgent things so it helps that I'm here to hold the pillow up to her ribs so it doesn't hurt so much when she coughs.

The only bummer is that I wasn't expecting to stay here with her so I'm out of clean clothes and haven't had a shower since Wednesday morning. I probably stink really bad and everyone doesn't want to say anything and make me feel bad. Of course there is a shower in the bathroom here but why would I do that and then put on dirty clothes?? Oh well, we will figure out something, I'm sure! Hopefully she will get to go home in the next day or so, that will solve the problem.

Other than that my life has just been the normal same old stuff. My sister will be having her baby the 2nd of March so I'm looking forward to that and my daughter will be having her baby sometime in March. Fun fun!!

I do have to say that I am missing my boys. Even though it has been a nice breather being here, I miss the little stuff. I miss Sammy shooting me kisses and saying " I love you more than chocluc" and "to the moon and back!" I miss Benjamin needing "just ONE more hug and kiss!" And I miss Levi asking for "His morning snuggles" and I miss my husbands SHMILY's.

Ok, I think I have babbled enough for now!
