so tired.
life's been moving at an incredible rate the past few days ... and i feel like i'm living in my car.
mar's doing better today, i think - at least her color is back. the dr finally came in this morning while i was there and said he thinks she might be able to eat some solid food today (her first food since SATURDAY). those doggone nurses keep trying to make her walk around all the time and it's really making her upset - mostly because when she moves, she vomits (from lack of food) and the anti-nausea meds they're giving her are apparently not working. anyway, i gave her a little bath this morning and she was sitting up when i left ... so hopefully she is on the road to recovery .... but i don't really expect her to be going home before sunday.
my mother in law, who is a nurse, told me that the reason mar's back was hurting is because they fill up the stomach cavity with carbon dioxide to do the surgery, so they have room to move around, and then it gets in your system and makes everything hurt. i certainly did not know that before! i love having smart people around me.
i'm supposed to go to my cousin's house tonight for pampered chef party ... i'm not sure if i'm going to go. i really need to spend some time with my husband and our menagerie. plus i think i might fall asleep during the presentation.
back to work ... gotta start closing the books on january.
