Christmas

SO much to do

We are about to head out to drop off a Keg that I had rented a long time ago for a Halloween party (I said it was a long time…) at our church. Normally, we don’t bring alcohol to Church, but this was for a Mingles event (we carved pumpkins, it was fun) aimed at grown adults who go to our church which has very old German ties and everyone knows you can’t be a true German if you don’t like beer.

Anyway, Dropping that off on our way to church, then My wife is going to visit with her good friend who has her mom and sister in town. I may join, but I also have an 8-10 page paper that I’ve been procrastinating on that is due on Monday. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I have started it, but it took all day today to do so… I really have not done anything today and it is almost 1700… It’s sad but I feel justified after all the pain I’ve been in and through over the last two weeks. Speaking of which, getting the stent out sucked far worse than I thought it was going to. Not just the procedure, but once they had it out, because I hadn’t taken any pain meds, about 15-20 min after my kidney was on FIRE. I had in mind to stop at a burrito store on the way home to get breakfast as I recouped. The place I stopped at was slower than molasses that morning of course and I waited about 15 minutes for a single burrito. I doubt I’ll be going back there any time soon. Finally got home and had to walk around because the pain was so bad I couldn’t even sit still. I thought maybe watching something would help but it didn’t. I took my meds and some Tylenol, and while pacing, would take bites of my burrito. Finally about 2 hours later it calmed down and I was able to think straight. So I went into work and did 3 hours of the 6 I thought I was going to be able to do.

Tomorrow we have her family coming over for lunch. Which is why we are going to church tonight. Probably a good thing. I could do a whole blog post and more about her father and his overly sensitive feelings about punctuality.

Gotta shower and go.

To my future kid, I can’t wait for you to get here. I hope that I will be a good father to you.

Something I want to remember from today:

I procrastinated a lot. I am feeling a ton better as far as the pain goes. My wife is amazing with Christmas gifts. She has written all of the cards and wrapped all of the gifts. She is amazing.
