It kinda hurts when they stick a 6 inch metal pole up your nose

Well today I went back to the doctor for my second followup. He said everything is looking good. He put me back on antibiotics for another week because of some open areas up in there. To look up there he numbs my nose (which knocks the pain down to ungodly instead of excruciating) and then sticks this 6 inch metal pole that is a little smaller then a straw. He had me lay my head back against the chair and then stuck it in. I learned quickly that I had made a mistake by putting my head back because then there was no place to go when the pain got to be too much as he went deeper. I kept trying to push my head back to keep him from going further and he was kinda laughing at me (not in a mean way. hes really nice). He said that he was going to take out something he had placed up there during my surgery IF it would come out easily. I told him that whatever it was wasn't bothering me and he could feel free to leave it up there because it hurt like hell when he pulled the packing out the other day so I cant imagine something that is WAY up there being pulled out. He got a kick out of that request but he ended up leaving it in because it wasn't wanting to come out easy. He said the stitches (which are almost hanging out of my nose making me feel like I have whiskers) will dissolve in time. I am still so tender in my nose that I requested him not to take them out (he did laugh at me for that) which he said he wouldn't anyway. He said that I should expect to be really sore and tender for a while still where he took out pieces and reconstructed my septum. FUN!

After I left the doctor I came home to all three of my boys being home! Dave had gotten Mychael from school while I was gone so I got to walk in to all of my boys in one room. That made me super happy because its been a while since all of us were home at the same time. It is moments when all four of us are at home that I am happiest. Even if everyone is doing their own thing while we are all here I love having all of my boys here with me.

My party (work) that I was supposed to host on Friday got cancelled. This is like the third one that has cancelled lately. Stuff keeps coming up with people or they cant get people to come. I am extremely disappointed that this one got cancelled though because I was counting on the parties I held this weekend for some extra cash for New Orleans. Hopefully Saturdays holds and as many people show up as she said would (which almost never happens but I can dream) because she said its supposed to be a huge party. It never fails that when I don't need money for anything I have parties booked out the ass but when I really want parties to hold because I want the extra cash they cancel every time. *SIGH*

Well I am off to make supper for my boys. Gotta keep em fed so they don't get cranky :)

See ya!
