Just Another Bend In Journey of Life

More crap from me...Well I got the hoses for the washer and hooked that up finally. Thank God! Although when we turned the water on for it the hot water leaks so that has to be replaced, of course! At least I can turn it on and off when I need it so it's not dripping all the time. I did manage to put a good dent in it and got most of them done as well as going through my clothes and S's clothes and getting rid of them. Now my bedroom looks almost livable. Still more to do. I swear I don't have enough hours in a day to get everything done that needs to be done. I work all day long and the last thing I want to do is go home and clean or paint or whatever. But I suppose I have to. Can't live in a pig sty.
I recently found out that my mom had a corroded artery in her neck. She had an ultrasound done on Thursday and just got the results yesterday. Apparently there's not one but two corroded arteries. One is 99% blocked and the other is 80%. Not good. She's too young to have these problems. She has an appt tomorrow morning to figure out what they're going to do. I'm sure they'll be doing surgery but they may send her away since she also had a brain tumor that they really don't want to operate on. She found out about the tumor back in '96, so 10 years ago. I guess I'll just have to play the waiting game and see what they tell her tomorrow. I'm trying to remain calm and not freak out about it. After all, it's out of my hands and there's not much I can do.
On the flip side, the hot tub has been running constantly. I'm not sure if it's because it's been cold out at night/morning or what. I'll have to check on it again when I get home. I still have no desire to sit in the damn thing. I'm not that big and I know that 4 hours was WAY too long to be in it. Granted that I was in and out or sitting on the edge with my feet in it for a very good portion of the time but still... I should know better. Oh well. We had a good time. At least I didn't cook my insides!!!
I have a birthday party for my little cousin after work today. She turned 7. S got up this morning and was SO excited about her bday. She said "Mommy, she's almost an adult now!" I had to laugh. Out of the mouths of babes huh? Oh to be 7 again and not have a care in the world. The biggest problem you have when you're young is worrying about whether it's going to be nice outside or not so you can play. It's funny how we spend our childhood years wanting and waiting to grow up and then when we finally do, we spend the rest of our lives trying to be young. We should be able to start out old and get younger. :) Sounds good to me.
I've got nothing else that I can think of right now. My brain is pretty much fried today. Too much stuff going on.
