Great pictures Betsy!

Beautiful day here to Colleen!


Robin, I got a Suzuki LX7. They call it the "luxury" model because it has a sunroof and leather seats and some other stuff added. It is "cranberry metallic" ummm I call it maroon! DMV calls it red!

It is a 2008, and has 12,000 miles on it. It was a rental vehicle.

Gads you guys are chatty, I can't keep up! Prom weekend over here, and I'm not sure my heart can take it.

What a day.

Most of it was great and parts of it were not so great.

I did some things around the house, went and did a bit of shopping with Liz.

We then went out to a really nice restaurant to celebrate her birthday.

Before we had even ordered I felt my phone vibrate, it was a number that I did not recognize.

It was the nursing home about my dad.

He had an "episode" at supper time where he passed out and had no pulse for several minutes

He did come back and then got him to his room and settled in his bed. The nurse said that his breathing was really bad (not breathing for long periods of time) and that his blood pressure was really low.

While I was talking to the nurse the waitress took our order which we had to cancel because we had to get over to my dad and also pick up my mom and take her there.

When Alex and I got there he was alone in his room and looked very pale and lifeless But he was breathing.

Long story short, he is still with us. His breathing is still irregular, which is not really all that strange because he always did breath like that.

His blood pressure is better too.

Have no idea what happened to him but all his limbs seem functional and he "talks" words that we can understand but don't always make sense (as per usual)

Both my brothers showed up and dad seemed somewhat stable so we headed off to have our birthday dinner and I returned to sit at the home for a bit after that.

Crazy day here. Hopefully he will recover

for Robin. Hopefully Dad is better today and they figure out what happened to him and can correct it!

Update on my dad:

My mom called the home this morning to check on him and the nurse told her she wouldn't believe it.

But my dad is up and walking around and smiling this morning like nothing ever happened

I think I forgot to put in my other post that he has a DNR and was not resuscitated yesterday. All they did was rub his sternum hard and he came back on his own.

Silly old guy, basically on his deathbed last night and this morning is back to his usual self.

That's a good thing though

My mom has a dentist appointment at 10 this morning and then is going to stop in and check up on dad herself.

But so far he seems like he's back to normal.

Hello My TKer friends...

Ive been really busy with work and family stuff...
I have been trying to keep up on the reading ...but have been lacking in my posting...Sorry!

Hey Slacka! Pics are GREAT!

DU sounds like we could both use our upcoming Disney vacations!

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK YEAH!

I've never been a fan of Star Trek. Funny thing tho DU, the only episode I like is "The trouble with tribbles" and I love that episode. TNG was decent. I could stand to sit through that one.!

tng???????????????????

Got a new car yesterday. Well new to me. It is a previous rental vehicle and only has 12,000 miles on it.

HERE IS SOME VIRTUAL CHANGE TO THROW IN THE BACKSEAT!

Great news!!!!!

Yes that is great news.

I stopped in this afternoon just to see how he was and he was out walking the halls, just like any other ordinary day.

Really so strange.

How he could be almost dying last night and today he's back to his usual self.

He was quite talkative today too. Coherent sentences but not appropriate also as per usual.

For example, we were walking down the hall and he says..... they are going to start putting the stores in along here soon

Any how, hopefully it was just a blip on the radar that does not show up again.

Hoping for that too, Robin!

 

[KimRaye]

Ummm...maybe you should go over to Kims and give her a hand. You culd drive Kelly to all her events, while Kim catches up on her sleep.

I LIKE your thinking PD! Unfortunately, Dorene lives too far away from me to do that.

Kelly's team lost tonight, 9-7 against the 1st place team. Not bad. Her team had 2 hits, and Kelly had one of them. Her defense was even better than the hit tho.

Kelly came home from school today with a 'note' about tomorrow night's GS ceremony - everyone bring a dessert or appetizer! Excuse me, one day notice?!?! Where's Ann when I need her?? I think I'll be stopping at Sara Lee after work/before the ceremony to get 'something?'.

Oh well! Weather is beautiful here! I wore shorts tonight!

 

[DISUNC]

Good Morning'

Clean up day, take Pop to Dr's (this will be weird...cause it's the same Dr who tried to operate on Mom when she passed....), then he MUST go for a haircut (all 2 hairs). While he is getting his 2 hair cuts I will do some food shopping, then go pick up the kids.

Later!

I think I'll be stopping at Sara Lee after work/before the ceremony to get 'something?'.

Sounds like a plan too me!

 

[KimRaye]

Andy?? No one posted today after you???

I'm next???

Did you start a TK5 and leave me out??

Wow, hope everyone is doing ok!!



Kelly's GS ceremony tonight was fine. They did some skits and some jokes, and Kelly actually got 'physical' and sprayed another girl with "John the Baptist" water. You had to be there, I guess. It was a knock-knock joke. I got an 'award' (a GS water bottle) for being the 'official' (do nothing) co-leader. ALL I did was sign a bank account signature card last year, and fill out a physical/medical form to be 'counted' as co-leader. Shame on me! When I heard the 'intro', I yelled "NO". I am totally UNworthy!!!

DU, my Sara Lee/Maurice Lenell desserts were fine, and plentiful, and I left with some of them, but shared more. Appetizers are hard to do in advance (if warm) when you have to sit thru a program first. (Ann??)

Next project, among many, is ironing &/or sewing on all of Kelly's badges and patches from the past 2 years - YES, the past 2 years! I just don't commit to these things that she does as much as she does. We had to FIND her badges and patches from last year, so now I have 2 years worth of GS badges and patches to iron on.

Ugh

On the positive side, GS doesn't officially start again until September! I've got all summer to iron/sew! Even tho they have events over the summer.

Sat is 2 skating sessions for her, afternoon and evening. Sun is softball practice, and I'm insisting she take Monday OFF, from everything! She is just wearing me out! She COULD go to a Memorial Day celebration and Parade, but I had to say no! If I'm THIS tired, she HAS to be a little tired, too!


Hoping you're ALL ok!!

 

[pixie dust 112]

Kim, you have me laughing on the find and then iron on the badges thing. My girls haven't been in scouting for the past 4 years and I still find badges in unexpected places. Seems that an awful lot pop up in the cabinets above my refrigerator. I must have thought that was a good place to keep them until I got the chance to sew them on!

 

[Cruisin]

Good morning all.

Technically I'm not home this weekend but I am right now

We are camping out at the local airplane club field but since Alex is moving out tomorrow I thought I'd come home today for a bit.

I want to make sure that he crams as much kayrap into his car as he possibly can

If I left it to him, he'd take his paramedic uniforms and that would be enough for him.

I want some of this stuff gone

So I'm off to shower and get the day going.

It was freezing in the trailer last night but it's much warmer outside than it was inside. Gonna be a beautiful day here today.

 

[sleepingaurora]

they look so beautiful
