House Guest and more...

Well this morning started out great. I got up and my youngest, Carolyn was helping me fix breakfast. As I am fixing breakfast we get a call from the Dothan Hospital that my mother-in-law is coming home. Charlie tells them we will be there as soon as we eat breakfast since I was already cooking it. Well we get done and Charlie starts to play around with me and the girls. He was holding the door to the bathroom shut. When Carolyn starts to come thru the towel closet to the bathroom. He leaves the door to play with her. Courtney think her daddy was till holding the door walks away. I start to pick up something I just dropped on the floor when I hear her coming. Before I could say stop or move the door meets my head. All I can remember is turning around and everything going black. When I started seeing again I was sitting in a recline position on the floor holding my head. Charlie started saying "Oh My God Honey". I then know something is wrong he starts grabbing toliet paper to apply to my head so he can get a cold rag. I tell him that I must get calm and get my blood pressure back down so it will stop bleeding. As I start calming down I want to see what it looks like. I stand up and remove the rag and there it is a huge 2 inch slice in my head. It needs stitches I know it does, but I am hard headed. I told him I was not going to get any. I tell Charlie to go get my bandaids from my room and a pair of scissors to cut the sticky off the sides so I can apply to middle of wound. As I then start applying the bandages as butterfly stitches. The whole time I am being told let's go get stitches I keep saying NO.

Well we leave the house and start to Dothan. I as Charlie to stop at the Enterprise Super Wal-Mart to get some supplies to keep my head bandaged and clean. He asks the lady at the drug store what I can take for the pain and the headache I am having with it. She told me because I have alot of problems with my iron in my blood to only take tylenol.

Now we have arrived over in Dothan to pick up my mother-in-law. She has had her surgery and they did a complete shoulder replacement. When they cut her open more was broke than they knew. She is doing great know. She is still in alot of pain, but she is staying with us for awhile. Charlie went and got her recliner and her cloths. Also picked up all her meds and alot of other stuff she was wanting. She was sitting on the couch til Charlie got home and then she tried to get up. Our couch is a lower seated couch so it was hard to get up off the couch. Her and Charlie went outside to sit on the porch, while I took Courtney to Opp to meet her grandmother for the weekend.

Me and Carolyn stopped by the grocery store and picked up so chicken to make hot wings and also some french fries for supper. While me and her was that close to Fred's we stopped and got some new pans that go on a stove around the elements.

So this day has been such a up and down day. If this is a gleams into the next year time just needs to stand still.
