Surgery went well...

My son, Troy, had back surgery this morning in Tucson, AZ. My DIL called and told me that the doctor came out while Troy was in recovery and told her the surgery had gone very well and she could see Troy in about an hour and a half. I think they are home now according to her facebook entries, but I told her I'd give him time to sleep this afternoon and I'd call him later this evening and hope he'll be fully awake then. I would have been there but my DIL's father had already scheduled his visit this week before Troy's surgery was scheduled, so I'll have to wait to see him when I fly out this Saturday for a week to help in his recouping and taking care of my granddaughter since he'll be restricted to doing some things--like lifting her. Even though my husband and I had just been there, I still wanted to go back after the surgery, although it means I'll be flying this time, which I absolutely hate doing, and too boot, I'll be by myself---YIKES! Guess, I'll survive it.

It's a very dreary looking day here...all gray and about 25 degrees cooler than yesterday. I'm not real gung ho today so not much is being accomplished...however, tomorrow I'll be going to Illinois to see my Mom and on Friday, I'll be doing house cleaning and packing--oh what, an exciting life I lead, LOL!!
