Sludge

It's Monday and another blog post. Our weather is a tad bit cooler so that's a relief. The kids will have their first full week of school so hopefully it will be smooth transitions.

I won tickets to the Depeche Mode convention for Sunday night. Hector agreed to go with me and arranged his Monday schedule to the late shift so we could have a fun time. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. 

We think a 1:30am Mexican food run was the culprit to triggering the sludge in his gallbadder duct set off stomach pain at 9am Sunday morning. By noon, he couldn't take it anymore and we set off to the ER thinking he would most likely need surgery since these type of incidents have happened twice before in the last 2 months. I drove to his work since he knows/trusts the doctors there.

Poor guy couldn't get comfortable at all since 9am and after some Toradol. Of course, it took a while to drive to the hospital with a traffic accident jamming up the freeway. Then the ER was full of people to add more time. I think we waited about 2 hours before he was taken inside. Bloodwork,  some pain meds and 2 more hours later the pain lessened a little and he was sent home. 

So we got home around 6:30pm and we were both exhausted by that point. Hector is taking today off to rest and take it easy.

So no more greasy food for now although H has been really good since April and lost 50 pounds. Funny how the body works...

I did get lots of knitting done on my Be Simple scarf/shawlette.
