This weekend was pretty low key. Friday we met up with a couple of craig's friends for dinner down in Olympia. Saturday we went mini golfing, ran some errands, had a bit of a scavenger hunt to get me some drugs, and then had Dana over for a mini BBQ. Even completed it with being white trash and making smores over the stove. :) Sunday Craig and I went up to Seattle and walked around Pike's market and on the waterfront and just hung out a bit. Today I'm being forced to clean and grocery shop. :(
In other fun news my mom is coming to town tomorrow because my gallbladder is rejecting me and I'm having surgery on wednesday. It's nice now that she is teaching and able to come out to take care of me. I'm a little frustrated with it all since I ended up in the ER may 2 for this and have been getting the run around for 3 weeks since I "don't fit the typical demongraphics for gallstones..." Even though I've had tests that have shown it's my gallbladder. Then work is being a pain in my ass with sick/vacation time. We gradually accrue it and since my year starts in March I currently have very little time built up. They're telling me I have to take unpaid time off, kinda hard to afford when I'm having all these medical expenses and it's not like it's an elective surgery. They won't let me go into the negative either. It's getting pretty frustrating. I'm going to try to talk to then owner tomorrow and hopefully he'll work with me and we'll figure something out. If not I might be looking for a new job a little sooner than expected.
Well hope you all had a fun and safe Memorial day weekend!

urgh, been there, done that. Just to warn you, be prepared for everything you eat to be rejected for a while after the surgery. Every single nurse that say me said "wow, what are you doing here, you don't look like anyone that should be getting their gallbladder out" thanks, got it now just fix me!
Good luck, I'll be thinking of you :)
Sorry to hear about the gall stones and your crappy work situation. Glad your mom is coming to take care of you! Good luck with everything and wishing you a speedy recovery!
