Went to my Weight Watchers weigh in on Tuesday, and I was down 1.2 lbs. for the week. Which, I think, is wrong. I worked my ass off exercising this week and ate perfectly, but alas, my period started that morning, and I'm sure you all know what THAT is like. Damn water weight, well fuck that. I'll show that scale next week! Anywho, that means I've lost a total of 21.6 lbs. in eight weeks. Not bad, eh?
This has been a weird week so far. I got a call Tuesday night that my very favoritest uncle in the world, had a heart attack and is having triple bypass surgery in about 20 minutes. Talk about freak me out. He's only 40! Plus it hits way too close to home, reminding me of when my dad was sick. I can't even go into that right now, it upsets me so much. We'll just leave that as another story for another day.
Back on to my uncle, he lives in Kingman, Arizona and evidently they don't do bypass surgeries there, so they transferred him to Sunrise hospital in Las Vegas. Vegas is only a four hour drive from here, well, more like three the way I drive, but I just don't have a car that will make it there right now, and I can't afford to take the time off from work, which really sucks because he's there all alone. He got divorced two years ago, so no wife, no kids. All of our family is here and is unable to get there, and I just feel awful thinking about how scared he must be. I called and talked to him for about an hour this morning. But still, it's not the same. I love him and I feel like I'm abandoning him there. I can call tonight and get a status on him, but I won't be able to actually hear his voice until tomorrow evening. Grr. I can't take the worry!
Okay, I have to get ready for work now. Send your happy thoughts (and prayers if you do that) here.
