Just a quick catch up. I actually got to answer all of your journals this evening. Wow!!! I’m really... tired right now. Hubby and I have worked a long time today on the kitchen renos. We have to wait about an other two weeks before our cabinet doors arrive. I can hardly wait, that will be the finishing touch. But for now we have put in the countertop, redid the plumbing, put in the new sink and taps, painted all the framework, added new mactac to the cupboard bottoms, installed under the counter lighting, and finally got the back splash up. Actually, my hubby got up real....early and had it all up before I was up. When he took me downstairs I was awestruck, it was so... beautiful. What a lovely morning surprise. He’s so.. Good to me. Thank you, God for this wonderful man. For all of you that are faint of heart or squimish skip this paragraph. I have trouble with my bowels. It is not at all uncommon for me to go for days with out a visit to the loo. However, sometimes it just gets to rough on my body and it rebels. Well, it rebelled last night. At about 7:00 I felt like I had a bowling ball on my left, lower side, near the colon. As time went by the pain was almost unbearable. I could not stand upright. I had to hold my stomach. I took two laxatives and headed for bed. All night I was in pain, not much sleep, I would just get these stabbing pains. I had to massage the area to try to get it to move along to the exit. I also had to breathe like a woman in labor, it helped. Anyway, I got up at 3:00 and took 2 more laxatives. They finally kicked in at about 8:30. I made many trips to the throne. Get outta my way!!! Needless to say, I am really tired tonight and am hoping for a good night’s sleep.Anyway, I’ll close for now. Sleep well, my friends.
