FOOT!! and DAD

Ok so I'm off till Monday. I get a bone scan tomorrow. I will be radioactive...what fun. I was really hoping to go back today but better to be safe than sorry right?

Dad goes Thursday to get his testing done. At least some of it anyway. He gets his bone scan and Ct scan done. Then on the 29th he gets yet another biospy and the Dr wants to get a good look at everything, so we can figure out the game plan. I think dad wants to go with the external pouch rather than in internal or neo-bladder. We will see. It's going to be a long few (4-8) weeks. Dad likes the new Dr. and feels really comfortable with him. Finding someone you can trust is half the battle.

Sunday

My Sunday was good. Lee did the lesson this week. I don't have to work...only because I'm still off from my foot. I think I got my house answer. But I am going to continue to pray. Rachele is feeling sick but is not whiny yet. Kenny is doing good. Lee is going to call a guy for some work, I am so geateful for that. Some of the pressure will be off me. I'm hoping to go back to work this week.

Houses, houses and more houses

Ok so we are still searching. When our agent gets back from vacation in Mexico I think we are going to put a bid on the house with almost an acre. However we are going to keep looking. I feel that is the house for us. It is the only one that we have felt that we even want to put a bid on. Lee is not as confident as I am, but we drove by it yesterday and he is talking about it more. He even told me to go ahead and order some books on raising chickens. We still need to get the house and make sure the city will let us have them...it does have several farms on either side of the property we are looking at but they might be grandfathered in, Lee said that maybe with the property having a barn it could be grandfathered in too. I will keep you posted as we continue our hunt for houses and our bidding.

This was my 170th post. Not as many as Emily's but hey it's a start.

House Hunting!!

So we have been doing some house hunting. Before going to a realtor we looked up a bunch of houses online. So when we went to see her we had a list for her to check out for us and set up showings.

Day 1: We found one that we kinda liked out of four.
Day 2: We found two we liked and one we really like. We like it so much that Julie is looking up current owners buying price and a few other details for us so we can possibly put in a bid. We still need to pray about it and find out some details ourself...like could we have a chicken coup in the back yard...yes Emily I want one too. It sits on almost an acre and the back is all fenced in with a little barn and section in the back for a garden. I can see things from my house in this house and it is so exciting. I will keep you all posted. The other two are very nice and have a little more room because they have four bedrooms but this one has more room to expand if need be. One even has an indoor year round pool. I like that feature.

OUCH!!

So I was at work transporting a patient from CT scan. As we rounded the corner the bed ran over my foot. It was a bariatric bed so it is bigger and heavier than normal beds plus the patient was in the bed. I have to go to occupational health to see what they want to do. I did not break it but it really swollen and hurts a lot. It is brusing up a little. I can't even wear a sock it hurts that much. So no shoes either.

Doing good!!

I can say that I have been doing really good with getting my homework done. I am still checking things out but not as frequent. I hope I can stay on track.

My dads bladder cancer is back and he has an appointment next week at UofM with there Bladder cancer specialist. We are keeping our fingers crossed.

Oh yeah and if you haven't seen my FB we are house hunting. We got approved for a mortgage at a good rate that could even go down a little more. Now we just need to find the house.

New discovery!!

So Rachele lost her second tooth last week. No big deal right??? She even pulled it herself. Well her new one is growing in...as of right now it is really far behind the line. So it looks like at this point she might need braces. I know she is only six I should not worry until more teeth fall out and the new ones grow in but...I fear the cost of braces. My current insurance covers 1000, but that will barely touch the cost. Some might say if it is only one tooth then why bother but me I say her self-esteem will be higher if her teeth look like everyone elses. Is that wrong of me? Any comments would be so grateful.
