This week has been a really busy week and will hopefully slow down next week. For now, let's get to this week's run down.
Saturday, I was called into work and ended working from four PM until almost midnight. Otherwise, the day was uneventful.
Sunday, I went to church in the morning, came home and took a nap, then at three PM started my prep for my colonoscopy on Monday. Let me tell you prepping for a colonoscopy (for those of you who don't know) is a pain in the anus... literally. I spent the next few hours going to the bathroom every five minutes or so until my colon was finally cleared out so they could shove a camera inside it. The prep is honestly the WORST part of the colonoscopy. That night I was worried to go to bed upstairs so I brought my main stuff downstairs and slept on the couch.
Monday, I woke up and shortly thereafter left to go to start my journey to the Buffalo Surgery Center where I would have my colonoscopy. First, we stopped at where my dad was working in Silver Creek and dropped off our neighbor so he could work with dad. Then we made our way up to Hamburg on the I-90 and went to Hobby Lobby near the mall. It was about this time that I got so tired and couldn't keep my eyes open so I took a nap until we arrived the surgery center about 10 minutes before my colonoscopy time. We went in and they took me in shortly thereafter, wasting no time. They took me down a hall and into a small prep area where they got my name and told me I had to give a urine sample. *gr face* I honestly HATE giving urine samples. They are my arch nemesis and it takes me FOREVER to give one usually. Thankfully this time it only took about ten minutes, then I got into my ultra stylish and comfy dark blue gown, and went back to the prep room. The nurse then stuck an IV in my hand and here was where the hurry up and wait game started. Then they moved me into the room where the procedure would take place and we waited some more, and finally, they put the anesthesia into the IV and I went to sleep. Sometime later, I woke up while they were still doing the procedure, saw the screen was pink and went back to sleep. The next thing I remember was talking to the doctor and him telling me that it went well, and I only have IBS and not IBD. The next thing I remember was being in the car. I don't remember putting my clothes on (which the nurse helped me with) I don't remember sitting in the wheelchair heading to the car, I don't remember getting in the car. All I remember is being in the car and leaving... and asking mom for some corn chips. LOL Then after I got those in my system, I wanted something a little more substantial and mom took me to McDonald's. We then went to Walmart and then went home where I napped hard and then woke up, ate, and promptly went back to sleep in my own bed.
Tuesday, I woke up, ate, went and picked up my paycheck. Then I went to Dunkirk with my mom where I bought dad's birthday present and then went to Walmart and bought a couple of things I needed. Then, I went home, spent a few minutes with my dogs, and went to work. Work was uneventful but quite busy. Then I went home and went to bed.
Wednesday, I worked with a different coworker than I was used to and she was in a hurry all night to leave even though we had hardly anything done on our stuff list. Then the other coworker wanted to leave too even though both of them had been there after I got there. I ended up staying until almost ten-thirty to make sure everything was done before I left. Then, I came home and crashed.
Yesterday, I went to church in the morning like I usually do, and then came home to my sister being here. We then dyed my hair (which is now a wizardly silver color) and then prepared for our guests to come in (which they did) and then enjoyed the time with our guests (my Aunt and cousin).
Today is going to be a crazy day. I have already woke up and spent some time with my cousin, we went and decorated the church for my grandparent's fiftieth wedding anniversary party on Saturday. Now, we are preparing for Dad's birthday party later where everyone is coming over, *rolls eyes* and it's going to be so much fun. *sarcastic*
Anyway, thank you for reading and I hope you had a good time and a better week than I did.
Keep On Being Awesome,
Cass
