Only 2 more days with my GALLBUDDY! I sure hope his removal puts and end to my "issues".
This past weekend was a full one and quiet fun. Saturday we did our usual trip to the Tatums so Bill can make some side money for the trip. Sunday we headed over to Pick A Part for the 50% off sale. Bill got many things he needed for Berthas rebirth. We actually found a K-5 the same year to rob part off over, that made him happy. The we had a little for Lynsey's B-day! Monday back to the Tatums to work and BBQ. I helped Rick cook and was my hands were burned by jalapeños juice from making Bacon Wrapped Shrimp. TASTY! The the big adventure of the weekend. Bill actually got me on the 4 wheeler with him. I'm such a big wienie when it comes to stuff like that. I screamed and screamed, then he made me drive! LOVED IT! I did not want to get off. I was so flipping tired on Monday! But it was all worth it. I'm sure this weekend I will not be doing much of anything!!!!
After the recovery I HAVE to start the dreaded swimsuit shopping. That might actually be worse than the surgery. LOL

and the results are in...
Well my gallbladder is coming out. May 30th to be exact. While int here he is going to look for any other issues, like kinks or hernias (Hyenas as Lynsey calls them). I have not been hurting too much lately but every time I say that it comes back. More nausea now than anything. I'll be back to new in no time.
Our BIG TRIP is almost planned. We have it mapped out, the hotels booked and adventures planned. I'm really excited about it. Here are the plans leave at 4pm on Thursday, arrive about midnight on Friday (yes we are driving to MI) Saturday we are going to "evaluate the car" and park the trailer on a friends corn and beet farm,then spending some time In Frankenmuth (www.frankenmuth.org) then we will be having a family picnic (Bill's dad side) on Sunday. Monday we are heading even further north to Mackinaw City and Mackinac Island (www.mackinacisland.org)
Tuesday we are even further north to Grand Island and staying at the Sunset Motel (www.sunsetmotelonthebay.com) and doing all the tourist stuff. Thursday we will head back south to FREE suites at the Soaring Eagle Compliments of Bill's mom (www.soaringeaglecasino.com) then Saturday we are going to pack up the car on the trailer and all the weary travelers (include 2 tag-a-longs) and coming back to Texas! WOO it is going to be a blast.
We have a new HD digit camera with a 35x zoom and a new video camera for the trip! So excited about those too.
To put the icing on the cake BERTHA LIVES. since we are bring home the 64 GTO we had to make room for her. So Saturday Bertha was resurrected she runs and is purring like a Lion! She is a beast, I posted her picture. She is nothing pretty but she is fun!
Well it is midnight on a work night I have to go get Bill to come inside (he out there with his new girl Bertha) and head to bed.
Love you all!
Scrap-on!

Test and Pain
Seem like everyone I know is going through some sort of medical dilemma these days. I finally got in to see my long vacationing doctor and he order a few test. So far I have had a abdominal CT scan with and without contrast. (showed nothing) a Gallbladder ultrasound (showed nothing) and today a HIDA scan that was pleasurable...NOT! The test took 1.5 hours during the time you lay on a hard narrow "bed" and be still for 1 hours while the scan you organs by watching them with a nuclear die. Then then inject you with a HORRIBLE substance that makes you gallbladder go cookoo and you wanna go puke. When it was all over I did not feel very well at all, tired, a little queasy and weak. But I survived I should have those results soon. Next on the 21st. they are going to check for internal hernias with an out patient procedure. He will fix anything he sees at the time. I need to tell him about the pain I have for year in my lower left ovary area that NO ONE had been able to figure out, look and see if it is a inny-hernia.
Quite funny, when I returned to work today after the HIDA the boys were giving me hard time. They were afraid to come to my desk to make their UPC's, fear they might get radiated and not be able to bear children. The Pat (oooo pat) he would not let me use the microwave he said that it was too dangerous for me to be near it in my current condition. So heat heat up my singles pizza for me. How Sweet! But then not 15 mins later was telling everyone the reason the pipe in the bathroom burst today was because I was nuclear active and I must have used the restroom and the pipe were weakened by my nuclear powers. Just when you think they are sweet they turn right back in the typical boys. (I guess that's one reason I like my job so much, the people I work with are great)
Any-who...my belly is doing it pain thing so I'm off to bed.
Merry I wish you well and remember getting upset at the hospital staff will not help, be patient and let it roll off your back. you did not check into a spa with a gourmet kitchen :)
Kim keep me posted! We must compare symptoms soon :) and maybe scars :)
Love you all! Miss you all!
