It is a very Good Day

So we were all doom and gloom because we had one stupid dr that gave dad an expiration date. The good news is that the heart dr yesterday said that my dad is not dying. Let me repeat that, NOT DYING. He does not have an expiration date. There is nothing in his file or that she can see that would say dying. That is good news one, today my mom calls me and the swelling that was in his legs went way down. She said 100% but I don't think it was quite that much. Either way though it's great news. Without the extra fluid weight dad may be able to stand on his own now. We'll see when physical therapy comes in today. Gram isn't doing well but that's expected right now. We're still waiting on the appointment for more tests on the masses on her stomach and liver. It's just a waiting game right now. I've been working on the computer but not as much as I should be. It's ok though because I'll have a new routine soon enough to adjust to. The shop is doing well. I'm pushing some of the inventory that I have right now. Plus I am still doing fall and Halloween things. I did a Scooby Doo shirt today and I absolutely love it lol. Of course I have my beads with me at Chris's today so I will probably make bracelets at some point today. I plan on having all current orders finished on Sunday. It's my own deadline because I've had them long enough and now I have the time to get them done like I should. There's still a lot of cleaning to be done. We're going to McKays this Saturday to get rid of some books. There's still alot to get rid of but it's a big start. We'll also try to stop at the book cellar in Crossville on the way home to get rid of any that may be left over. It's going to be fun :) It's funny how some good news can change your whole attitude lol. I can't wait to really start on fall things and some Halloween for the shop because it's so much fun and usually a hot seller. What is everyone else doing today?

That is terrific news about your dad. That other doctor needs his license revoked. Not too much going on here.

It's still a possibility. I know my sister wants to so very badly. She was so worried that she wouldn't be able to be here because she's used her time off and their bills are up right now.

That is good news about your dad. Doctors shouldn't give dire predictions like that without anything to back them up.

Right! I want to meet him but I'm afraid I'll go to jail. My sister wants to come down and give him a piece of her mind too.

It sounds like things are coming along nicely. Good to have a more positive doctor. Oh,yes. Halloween is my favorite holiday and I look forward to decorating and watching my halloween shows. I like the competition cooking shows and the horror ones too.
