Final Amy Update for The Night -

Ben told us at 7 pm that she is still in the hospital enjoying either her synthetic or real morphine, can't recall which he said. She did not have the blood patch done yet. Her neurosurgeon overwrote his residents thoughts in regards to treatment. It will be known in the morning if she'll need it. The kids are back home with Ben for the night.

So, I am off to enjoy my bowl of ice cream and the quietness that has overcome our house with the depart of 3 kids (2 went with Ben and Anna went to bed).

Hope everybody has a wonderful night and I'll see ya all in the morning.

Thanks Jess for the update

I read about it
It sounds scary. It is one thing to have a needle in your spine to stop the excruciating pain of childbirth, but another to have it cold turkey! Owie!!

okay.. i just found another reason to not like norton antivirus.. it actually messed up the fltmgr.sys file.. causing a irq conflict with the network controller.. i have been knocking my head against a wall for 2 weeks trying to figure out what the problem was.. lol.. it was a blasted registry entry that didn't get erased during the uninstall.. (by the way norton is trash .. if you have it dump it. its a resource hog and drags your system down.. {my opinion } and causes more problems is solves..)

anyway. going to play a game with my oldest daughter. shes been begging the wife and i for this for a long time and has done quite abit to earn it.. good night.. hopefully after the beach i will be on..

nite nite

Jess - Thanks so much for keeping us up-to-date about Amy. She is in my prayers. Also prayers for the medical folks taking care of her.

Ditto what Kelli said about enjoying that ice cream!


Hi, Awol! It's great to see you here.

Whew... Homework is done! I got to pick the Galapagos Islands for a research project in my biology class


Still no word on the promotion for me... But Mrs. Hop got selected along with three other females to be featured in a "women in Law Enforcement" pamphlet they are doing here. It will be neat for her.

Because it doesn't work?

I can figure out how skimmers work, I can figure out how to build one. I can build cabinets, and I know how to make DIY rocks, but I can't stop a @#$%^@#$%^ bulkhead from leaking. Go figure.
