Busy Friday !!

Darwin had a follow-up doctor's appointment for the kidney stones. At 9:45, so we started out early. We seen Dr. Platts associate, Dr. Egan, he was funny. He told Darwin it might take a while to pass the stones or pieces of the 9 millimeter. Darwin did pass one the morning before and so we had it so they could have it analyzed. Dr. Egan would rather find out what causes the stones than to just treat them. So, we go back in three weeks. Darwin has to have another x-ray here in Delta and he will take it with him so the Doc can see if things are moving. Darwin had another "episode" last Sunday. He was in PAIN. I don't like to see him hurting. I'm just glad it's not a constant pain.
After the doctor, we stopped by Joann's to get fabric for the BTRS swap and then hit the Golden Corral for lunch. We headed up to Pops and Grandma's to do some finishing touches on their downstairs bathroom. Randy started the project by rearranging the plumbing, Darwin did the wiring, Kevin did the framing, Eric (Kristin's husband) did the walls and ceiling, Kevin painted the walls once and Pops & Grandma painted again. Soooo- Darwin put up the lights and we tiled the floor. We were out of practice and it took us a minute to get it going, but it turned out pretty. I think Pops wanted his bathroom back, it's been a few months. Kevin is living with them and he has been lifting and resetting the toilet each time it needed it because it's too far to go upstairs....funny boy! By the way, Kevin and Karen are getting a divorce. Due to this event, he has seen Monica and his three little grandbaby girls. It is a very good thing. He is going to AAA and trying to get it together, so pray for him. We had Chinese dinner with Pops & Grandma then headed home around 8. All in all it was a great day!!!

Dr Egan sounds like a good dr. Hopefully it will all pass and life can go back to normal again. That's very nice of all of you do get the bathroom ready for Pops and Grandma. Lots of work, but worth it, right? I didn't know Monica had 3 girls. Did she have a baby recently? That's good that they are back talking to each other. Kids need their grandparents.

Monica has a 6 yr. old(Meaghan), a 3 yr. old(Danielle),and a 5 month old(Kasey). I really don't think it will be normal again, it comes with age and you learn to adapt. Sunday, his sciatic nerve was killing him.

Monica named her daughter Kasey? I didn't know that. I don't think I would ever name a daughter Shawn. Maybe. I will think about that one. Maybe dad could use a blessing. We don't want him to fall apart.

I mentioned a blessing to him, but he doesn't feel he needs one just yet?? Stubborn man!
On "Nashville Stars", there was a Shawn (A girl) and on another show there was a Shawn! On the same night! Must have been the name for girls that year...
