281.1

I don't feel like bloggings so it probably means that I should even more. It's been a busy week. Blaine had two track meets. My friend had her gastric bypass and Blaine turned 16 BUT!!!!!!! today...... my damn period finally came! I had NO clue it was coming.

Blaine's Tuesday track meet was at South. We hosted it so I got my wonderful little group together to do the discus and shot put. Nathan, and Kyle to the shot put and Brent Lucas and I did the discus. The Oakland Bay coach kept coming up to our coach and complaining about how we were doing things. We had never gotten direction from anyone (well last year Mr. Winn did tell me a little and I had different measurers but who remembers what they did last year.) A mom was over by the shot and she made Nathan so mad that he thrust his note pad at her and asked her if she wanted to do it. He said that he was NEVER volunteering again. That really made me mad that someone pissed him off that bad. Later I found out that I could have kicked her off the field cuz she wasn't suppose to be there. OK Thursday's track meet was really exciting. Blaine broke a John Sedgwick record from 1986 and he is the new state record of 167 feet. It is soo exciting! I keep checking athletic.net to see if it is updated but it is not yet.

My friend's gastric bypass was successful but they had to open her up and she was hoping that wouldn't be necessary and the surgery took 6 hours. I am not expecting mine to take as long. She had had a horrible car accident years ago which caused scar tissue and I think that had a lot to do with the scar tiussue. I have never been opened up so I don't expect to find any. She is doing well today and have taken her off IVs and she is taking things orally. I will probably go see her Monday.

Friday well lets back up. Thursday, Eli came and Emma and Kyle stayed the night. Friday, I took Emma and Kyle to school, picked Blaine up, got coffe at Starbucks and took Eli to school. Then Blaine and I went to Bremerton to get his photo taken and pay for his drivers license! He is now 16. We went to Amy's for lunch and took him back to school. Nathan and I went to Costco and got food for Blaine's party. I came home, made a watermelon fruit basket, cut up a pineapple and added grapes. Everyone came over. Nathan got 4 pizzas from Costco. We had a good time. Today, I am exhausted.

I will be back in a few days. I got a couple of names of really good surgery blogs. One is theworldaccordingtoeggface.
