Finally the weekend...

I am so excited that today is Friday and even more excited that I get off of work in 20 minutes.

We had a small scare with my mother in law yesterday. She had been having bad chest pains and pains in her jaw during the night several nights in a row. She heard that jaw pains in women could be heart related, so my father in law made an appointment for her with a local cardiologist. He immediately scheduled her for a heart catherization the next day which was yesterday. She had 5 blockages - one 90% and the others only 20%. She was then sent immediately by ambulance to the hospital to have the blockage repaired with a stint. She came home today and is doing very well. She is now going to have a new diet, and has to quit smoking, which is a good thing. We have been trying to convince her to quit for a while, so we hope that she will. We are so glad that things were able to be repaired quickly because my father in law had his 2nd open heart surgery back in December and he is still recovering from it and has several other health issues. So that was yesterday. BJ, my husband, took the day off to go to the heart cath and I stayed at work because we were not aware she would be having surgery immediately so I worried him to death calling very often to check on her from my desk at work.

Last night, my parents came over for their usual every other week visit when my dad comes home from work. He works away for a week at a time, so he is always ready to see Lily when he gets home. Lily did not want her "mawmaw" and "pop" to leave when it got time for them to go.

On a completely different subject, Lily has not cried all week at the babysitter when I leave, so I have been happy or as happy as possible in the mornings.

For the weekend, we really don't have anything planned at all, but that should be a good thing. We usually end up staying way busy anyways...I think me and Lily may adventure to Wal-Mart tomorrow. It's always fun to go with just she and I.

Have a good weekend, everyone!
