We have been so busy cleaning, sorting, and putting away things here at the new house. We finally got over to the old house the other night and spent a couple hours cleaning out the porch and the porch closet. We hauled off 3 truckloads of junk to the burning barrel and had one heck of a fire going for awhile there!
We have just a few things left to get done to the house and then we will be done working here for awhile and can finally just enjoy our home. We have 2 doors to put in, the railing to put up in the garage so nobody falls to the basement, the deck to be built, windows caulked, quarter round put in the dining room around the baseboards because we left it to hard wood. Just the simple little things.
I went to Peoria yesterday to see Dr. Marshall. He said I am doing fantastically well. I am "above average" in my weight loss. I am at 73 lbs now and he said most patients at 3 months out are only at the 40-50 lb mark. I feel like I am getting smaller and smaller. I am noticing that my belly is shrinking, my butt is almost gone and my back fat is disappearing too! I am happy so far with my progress. I don't have to go back to the Dr. until the end of July, which makes me so happy.
My Grandmas sister Katie is not doing well. She is in the hospital and her outlook is not good. She's got a tumor in her chest and has been getting treatments for it, but suddenly started losing blood and having belly pain. They say she's bleeding from her belly and that they think the tumor has progressed to her stomach. She also had high enzymes and that indicates she has had a heart attack. She's in a lot of pain they can't get controlled. Please say a prayer for her comfort. My heart just breaks for my Grandma. She's lived with so much loss in her life.
I better go get supper cooked for these boys. They gotta have showers and get to bed. I am so tired tonight, so I want to get to sleep early. I have lots of things on the dvr taped I need to catch up on, but I am so sleepy I can't stay awake to watch TV very long!
Grandma Trones insurance is not going to pay anymore for her to be in Macomb, so she's coming home Monday. Today Mom and I went to Grandmas and cleaned up her house. Washed all the curtains, cleaned out the fridge, cupboards, and bathrooms, vacuumed and put up the hospital bed. I also went to the secondhand store and bought grandma a new pretty comforter. It's nice. We dusted all the furniture and re arranged the living room to make room for her hospital bed. I hope she's happy to finally be coming home, it's what she's wanted for a month now. I feel so happy for her to get to come home, I know she's so homesick.
