My gosh its been forever!!!! Thanks for all the replies I have recieved for the posts in my community discussions! I really aprreciate it. You guys are great. I'm sorry it took so long for me to post an update and thank you guys. Anyways....

 The drama never ends. My husbands grandfather had a heart attack last week and recently had a quintuple bypass. He is fine and hopefully he is recovering nicely. 

I've been to the hospital myself. The pain began in my head after I found out about pap and lasted till the next day. By noon I was hurting so bad I was actually crying and hyperventalating cuz of course...i'm panicing. Pretty soon I was vomiting. Dex grabbed me and went straight to the ER. After we sat and waited with my head in his lap trying to sleep for three hours, and after Dexter yelled at both nurses for making me wait that long, we were finally taken back where I was examined and then given two shots (one in each hip) of two different narcotics. Boy that relieved the pain but talk about trippin'. I now know I could never have survived Woodstock 69. LOL! The nurse that was checking my vitals was even laughing. Poor Dex couldn't watch me take the shots though but he got a kick out of the after effects. Ugh. So I made it out of there at 8pm and pretty much was on bedrest for the next day. Thank God for insurance. Now I know I can't leave that job for a while. *sighs*

Dex works at Ft Eustais....okay i can't spell it but its in Hampton and they think they're gonna keep him this weekend. I was totally unexpectedly lucky. Mel came to me today and said "oh i changed the schedule. You're off this weekened now." WOW! So I may be able to travel with him to Roanoke for the weekend. This is good. He's getting paid double overtime for that but its gonna take alot out of him physcially and mentally. They have to be done by monday. Phew. But its a mini vacation.

I did the grocery truck today, came home and did laundry, and I'm very tired. I'm pulling another five days. Wish me luck on that one. And just hope I don't get more blinding headaches caused by life.
