Long Weekend

I had a longer than expected weekend that started with a call to 911.

Thursday night we went out to dinner and got our Christmas tree. Family fun time. Around 2am my husband woke my up to tell me his chest was feeling tight but I didn't need to take him to the dr. He was breathing fine and wasn't hurting anyplace else. After about an hour, it got better but I got another wake-up call at 4am. It was back and worse. I called 911 and woke up my step-son to let him know what was going on without scaring him too much. About 5 minutes later a fire truck with it's lights flashing rolled up to our house. By this time, my husband said he was feeling better but I told him"Tough shit. We have to figure out what is going on." Luckily it wasn't anything heart related but the paramedics thought we should get him to the emergency room becasue it may be gall bladder related. I call my in-laws to watch my step-son and drop him off there and get my husband to the ER. After 5 hours in the emergency room, it turns out he has 2 gall stones and needs to get his gall bladder removed. We are going today to set up the surgery. The pain has come and gone a few times in the past couple of days. I just want him to be healthy. At least more questions will be answered today. I LOVE YOU JASON!!!

Playing nurse has given me some more knitting time, I started Christmas stockings on Sat. after making a trip to Weaving Works to buy the yarn and then getting a $30 parking ticket. I can't bitch. I did park in the lot across the street that was only for Safeway customers. I guess I have to pay it and move on.
