I'm sure you may have noticed that I am a tad bit angry right now. My dh called the Dr.'s office this morning to get the info we had needed. Well, turns out that the pre-admitions office FORGOT to call him for pre-op work! He needs blood work and an EKG. He recently had an EKG. A nurse at pre-op is going to call him at 2:30PM to ask him questions and look at his chart to see if they already have current enough info to go without having to do this stuff late this afternoon. Now, I understand that these things happen, but that is not making it feel any better right now! DH and I had plans for "just the two of us" aka, well, you know, this afternoon. We had actually planned for the weekend to be for that. Well, life got in the way in the form of my dd and her bf still being here which was not planned.
They are about to get a warning that the "landlord" is going to evict them since the "landlords" are losing patience, and they are over-staying their welcome. Besides which, we have two more of my kids that will be coming to visit in a month or less. One of those, my other dd, *may* be moving up here, as well. With her, we have already invited her to stay six to eight weeks, and I have volunteered to take care of her two kids, 2yo and 8mo, while she finds a job, gets an apartment, and find daycare, etc. Since we have specifically INVITED her to be here for that long, it's different. My dd who is here now has the $ to get into an apartment. I understand that they wanted one of them to get a job before doing so so that they aren't tied into a place that requires a 1.5 hour commute one way to work everyday, but they knew this coming into it. My youngest ds who is coming to visit with his gf and 8mo dd will only be visiting. They will only stay for a few days to a week at most. Works for me.
Oh, to top it all off, my dd was kind enough to share a DVD with her and my dh last night, "Life As A House." For those who haven't seen this, you should. It's excellent. However, the timing wasn't exactly great for watching a movie about a man dying of cancer. >eye roll< What was she thinking? I had to leave the room when he got near to dying in the movie, have a hard cry, blow my nose, and come back. I sat with tears streaming through the last 1/3 of the movie. ARGH And I thought my dd was a smart woman. I'm rethinking that one right about now.
I guess I may have a few things grating on my nerves right now. I'm sorry if I'm an endless stream of this stuff right now. It's something I've never had to deal with before, even with my mom (who is only one year older than my dh). My emotions are a teeny, weeny, little, bitty extreme right now. (sarcasm) For those of you who have been so patient as to read my posts, TY. I think that they are mostly just venting.

Hi Steph
With all you have going on right now your emotions are bound to be all over the place. I know if I was in your shoes I would be feeling the same way. Hang in there girl. Everything is going to be just fine.
HUGS
(((Steph))),
Really can understand why you would need to vent. A lot to go though right now. With all the, "extra" family members not much of a chance to just let down your hair either.
You and your family are in my prayers,
