Bless Your Heart

Living out loud in the Carolinas

It’s a little after midnight and I have to be at the hospital at 6 am. My surgery is at 8. I’ve been so busy the last couple of days getting ready. Going grocery shopping & doing laundry. Today I had lunch with Shannon then came home and cooked like a mad woman.Above you see 2 containers of spaghetti sauce (1 for lasagne and 1 for spaghetti), 1 container of sauce for beef stroganoff, and the big orange bowl is full of CSP’s favorite dip- sausage/velveet@/salsa. Then I made dinner, which was really breakfast. Scrambled eggs and this: A ring of crescent roll dough with a sausage/cream cheese filling.
I think we’ll be all set now for the next few days food wise. I can go to bed right after I answer a couple of emails, order Christmas pug photos, and send my library book request list to my MIL.
I’m a little nervous about tomorrow. Lots on my mind. I found out today that one of my favorite aunts is in the hospital. She had a nose bleed the other day that wouldn’t stop. The doctor sent her to the hospital and they’ve discovered she has leukemia! This is so awful. She’s under going a bunch of tests to see how advanced it is.
I was able to secure an appointment with our social worker to come check out the house but she can’t come til mid January! I wish it were sooner. I want to get this dossier done!
Ok, I’m gonna wrap stuff up and get upstairs. Oh, I’ve pre-written a couple of posts (things I wanted to tell you anyway) for the next couple of days. But I will get CSP to at least update to post on the surgery.

    Good luck! Hope everything goes well for you.

    Oh, and when you’re able, you’ve got to share the recipe for that crescent roll/sausage thingy. Very intriguing!
