Country Heart and Home

A bit of catching up...

I am not keeping up with this blog as much as I wanted to, but at least I am here and do a bit of catching up.

My boys are fine, growing like weeds and just as awesome as ever!!

My dh is working like crazy, keeping up with the demands of his job.

Dh and our oldest embarked on a new journey together, CUB SCOUTS!! So far our oldest loves it, all except for the uniform,lol its too much clothes for him, and he is not used to wearing a hat so it will take some getting used to, but for the most part he is loving it.

As for me well, of course I would have to be the one to throw a monkey wrench into such a nicely painted picture. After two weeks of drs visits and tests, I now know that I have a kidney stone, and its a honking big one too, 6-7 mm, the dr only gave me a 60% chance that I will pass it on my own, and I have until this Friday to do so or they are going to schedule me for surgery. -> Insert PANIC here<- Yeah I'm a chicken and to top it off I have a bit of an anxiety issue so surgery just doens't sound good to me. Yes, of course I have been praying!! Praying and drinking LOTS of water, hopefully I will be able to pass it and can avoid surgery.

So there ya go there is your bit of catching up.....

Now onto our regular scheduled programming, lol

Today is day at home for me, which I am thankful for,  I have alot planned today.

On my list of to-do's is:

* Cook ham hocks and make beans ~ ham hocks are in the crock pot, and beans are soaking as I write this.

* Laundry~ in the washer as I write this

* Bake muffins for lunches and snacks this week

* Make Beef Veg Soup for dinner tonight

* Bake Bread for dinner tonight

* Clean up house

I am sure I can probaly come up with some more things that need doing, so I guess I better get off here and get going at it!!

Blessings!!

Dana,
Sorry to hear about the kidney stone!! I'll be praying for you to pass it on your own...I wouldn't want to be facing surgery either.

Sounds like you're busy as usual...I'll be thinking of you while I hang the laundry out today too! :)

Blessings,
Laurie

Thanks Laurie!!
