Today we went to the doctor and learned all about my hip surgery. It will be a total hip replacement . the procedure takes about 2 hrs. to do, from the time they take me in it will be about 5 hrs. till I'll be in my room. From what he said they do a 6 to 7 inch incision on the side of my hip LEFT SIDE . The day after my surgery they get me up and I have therapy twice that day and the next. If things go well I'll be in the hospital 3 to 4 days. After that hopefully it will be all up hill and lots of hell to go thru. It's pretty scary to me but I sure things will go allright.
We had Kimber stay with us over the weekend. She needed a little time away from her big btother and just to have a little time to herself. We really enjoyed having her here, it was nice to have a girl to talk to.
We brought the van down from Beckys but we have to have some work done on it, but it will be the best thing for me to get into after my surgery, so we are going to sell the pink car. We should get enough money from it to buy snow tires for the van.

Well, this is my second attempt at trying to get my blog up. Yesterday I lost the whole thing. So It’s been real warm still and all the snow is almost gone. Our basement had about 4 inches of water in it so we had to move all the stuff that wasn’t in totes. What a mess! But this morning it all seeped into the ground. After Dad had rented a sump pump. Oh well.
Yesterday I was feeling pretty low and I didn’t think I could take another day of rain and darkness. In fact I thought I could use vacation. But decided maybe if I bought myself some flowers I would feel better, but then I never went to the store. When Dad came home he brought me a beautiful bunch of yellow roses. I told him he must of read my mind. What an awesome MAN111111
Monday I go to the surgeon, so I should know when I’m going to have my surgery. We did find out that this program I’m on only covers the doctor sooooooooo hopefully we’ll be able to get reduction from the hospital! But whatever.
Matt got into a drug rehab program so he’s happy about that. It meets 2 days a week, he’ll get more info at his first meeting.
We’re still trying to find a place for Joe to live that’s not too expensive, but that’s a tall order.
Today is a better day emotionally than yesterday, the sun was shining and that all ways helps.
