About my week

This week has been pretty busy, so I haven't had as much time to be on my computer. Plus, I haven't really had anything to blog about. This is a different feeling for me because I usually have so many things I want to write about, but not enough time.

The weather this week has been absolutely beautiful, and I enjoyed sitting outside Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. Hopefully I will be able to sit outside on Easter because it's supposed to be really nice.

My younger sister Chandra had the day off of work on Tuesday, so my mom, Chandra and I went to Kohl's to do a little shopping. We all found some stuff that we wanted, and it was all on sale. My mom had an additional 30% off coupon, so we got some great deals! After shopping we went out to dinner at Chili's to use a gift card that my sister Annette gave us this past Christmas. We all enjoyed our dinner. I got Southwestern egg rolls and a turkey sandwich. I've eaten at Chili's several times, and I always get Southwestern egg rolls because they are my favorite!

On Wednesday afternoon my mom and I had to go up to the hospital for my pre-op testing and registration. Fortunately, they were able to call St. Anthony's Hospital to get my most recent chest x-ray, EKG and blood work. I was fearing I would have to get out of my wheelchair to get these tests over with, but I didn't since they were able to get everything from the other hospital. My mom and I had a long wait, and we were at the hospital for several hours, but at least we got everything over with so hopefully everything will go smoothly on Monday.

I'm looking forward to this weekend. We're having Easter dinner on both Saturday and Sunday so that I can enjoy the meal two days instead of one since I can't eat or drink anything after midnight on Sunday. I'll be in the hospital overnight on Monday, so it will be a hospital dinner tray for my dinner that night! The things I'm looking forward to eating most for Easter dinner are corn pudding (so good!) and the coconut cake my mom is making for dessert.

Well, this is a relatively boring and short post, but I didn't want to go too long without writing anything. Hopefully my surgery will go well so that I can report back on how everything went sometime soon. Happy Easter, everyone!
