It's been a long week. I got a call from Mom on Tuesday that she was at the dr's office, and had a funky heartrate, and they wanted her to go right to the cardiologist, but wouldn't let her drive. So I left work, took her from one doc to the other, and then to the ER for admission with afib and a high heartrate- same thing I had in February.
Almost the same sequence of events, except she was back in sinus rhythym while in the ER, but the rate was too high. As of today, the rate is under control with meds, and she's on coumadin, and coming home tomorrow. She never felt anything but fine, except for annoyance at the whole situation. I'm so glad she's OK, and coming home!
Wednesday was the Camden County School Nurses annual banquet, and I went, for the first time in probably 10 years. Of course I forgot to take the small quilt I was donating as a door prize with me, mainly because I went from work to the hospital to the dinner.
It was at Tavistock Country Club, somewhere I've never been. Fabulous food, sat with congenial women, and I won a door prize! A bottle of wine and a gift certificate to a cafe! And best of all, I won the 50-50! How great is that! $137 in return for the $2 ticket I bought! I'm saving it for the NJ Quilt show at Edison next month.
Steph and Toast were home for the weekend. Steph took me out to lunch for a late Mother's Day gift, which was fun. Toast was thrilled to be home, and we were so happy to see her. And today, I followed them home to see the apartment. It's really cute, and a work in progress. Between work and school, Steph hasn't had time to get things up on the walls. She's so proud of her first place, and I'm so proud of her.
Sunday things to be happy about:
Mom will come home tomorrow, and is doing well.
All this rain is great for the so-called lawn.
Goal for the week:
To get thru it, LOL. I'm not committing to more than that.
