Wow!

I lost 10 pounds! My boobs got bigger! My butt is smaller! My hair lost its split ends! My skin plumped up! I got carded for no reason! I did math above the 5th grade level! I overturned Roe vs. Wade! I almost caused world peace. Stacey London asked me for fashion advice!

Okay, I lie. But I needed to blog about something happy. Maybe I can describe my burrito I had at dinner at Salsaritas?

I thought this week was long.......today has been the longest day of my life and its still not over.

Excerpt from Zoe's email to my girls:

That brings us to this morning. She was alert, talking, and in good spirits. WOW. What a change. As arranged, today was discharge day. Hospice is involved, and there will be nurses/ nurse aids with her in the apartment. They successfully got Mrs. Snead to the apartment, and things were going quite smoothly. She seemed very happy to be there. Were. Seemed.

She decided she needed to go to the bathroom. She didn't understand/ believe Jacqueline about the catheter. Then she decided she needed to take it out. All of the sudden, she "had the strength of an ox." She turned on Jax and Danny, and has been very angry. However, as the hospice nurse said, once she calms down with the sedative she will not remember this ever happened. Unfortunately, Jacqueline and Danny will. Please pray for them.

As you can imagine, it has been a very long, hard day. On top of everything, tonight is shaping up to be a long one. Mrs. Snead's sister and niece are flying in from Ca., but missed their connection. They will arrive in Raleigh around midnight. Please pray for rest, rejuvenation, comfort, a short memory, tenderness and patience for everyone. We also need to pray for the Dulin family as they need time together, and they need their hearts protected.
