Colonoscopy

Tuesday was a long day.  Well, Monday was a long day for the hubby.  He couldn't eat anything so he would be ready for the colonoscopy on Tuesday.  Normally Ken is very easy going, but when he can;t eat he is a bit grumpy and maybe you could even go as far as grouchy. We reported to imaging filled out the questionnaire and waited.  Finally, they called him and he was off and I got to read.  I even splurged with a diet coke.  What a luxury reading during the day.  I saw the doctor come in and in about 20 minutes it is over.  They called me back and Ken was drowsy.  Every 5 minutes the blood pressure pumps up and a nurse comes in and writes it down.  After several times he gets to sit up and then finally the IV comes out and he gets dressed.  I talked to the surgeon and he said that Ken had a few polyps and diverticulitus.  We left and he wants to eat.  We head for Boomarang for a ham breakfast.  Then we went home and Ken went upstairs for a nap with the big red dog, Rusty.  I finished reading the book I was reading.  I then started sewing.  I finished the quilt for Karri, made a pillow, and another smaller blanket.  Now I have the chair cushions left to do.  It is a chair seat pad and a chair back pad.
I came home from dinner at church and there was a big dumpster by the side of the house.  Ken is planning on roofing this weekend.  We shall see how it goes.  The last weather forecast I heard called for rain.
Friday is the last day of this nine weeks.  That means a lot of screening is going on this week.  Then I have to get all the screening information to the computer.  It will be a busy tense time.  The upside is I lost another child this week.  I am down to 18.  
Tomorrow will be busy with a busy day at school and then a sorority meeting after dinner with the old man.
