Owww...

Whoa, it's been so long since I posted, but we were busy! For one thing, Mark went to the E.R. (yes, we seem to be keeping them busy lately!) because of a fluttering and irregular pulse, and they put him in the ICU till they got his pulse back to normal. Can you believe, he didn't even tell me he was leaving? He had me feel his pulse and then, when I feel back asleep, he drove himself to the hospital! Crazy, huh? Now I feel like the apostles who couldn't stay awake with Jesus! Anyway, they spread his blood pressure meds out more, and they're going to test his night oxygen levels, as well as do a cardiac rhythm test. They're all going to be done on an outpatient basis, so he got right out of the hospital the next day! I'm so glad to have him home again. I missed you, Mark! I got my teeth pulled and a partial denture put in. I love my new teeth, because they look just like my 'used' ones! And it does hurt some, but I'm good at ignoring it. I figure they'll adjust them at my next appt., 'cause that's what Dr. Harris said he'd do. Oh, and I have a purple black eye and a big bruise on my cheek, and a swollen face. I think that's all. I'll post pictures when Mark gets here and hands me the cord that downloads the pictures, 'cause I can't reach it. Dr. Munk did a good job, and the partial just clasps on to my remaining upper teeth, rather than being loose or clunky or needing some kind of adhesive. Cool, huh? So, that's all for now. I think Phillip left for Iraq, but if you want to email him, just send it to our email address and I'll put it in his folder, which he checks. I'm guessing they can still do that over in Iraq. Anyway, I'm not sure if he's left or not. If I hear from him, I'll blog about it. :) Thanks for reading and for your comments. Even the lamest comment is like water to a drowning man. Oh...did I get my metaphors mixed up? Well, you know what I mean. And you can post anonymously, too, so no one traces it back to you when you're famous. Just comment as a 'name' and then make one up, like 'Penelope.' Okay? Okay.
