Been a busy week!

Yes, it has been a very busy week. I have not had much time to write anything in my blog since Sunday. Dawna and I went to Pittsburgh on Wednesday for my Dad's back surgery. We left here at 6 am, and went through a lot of bad traffic in Pittsburgh. Plus, there was a detour we had to follow to get to the hospital. We must have sat in traffic without moving hardly at all for 30 minutes. We finally arrived at the hospital around 8:30 am. Dad was already in surgery. We sat with Mom and Rose and her husband, Dave, in the busy waiting room. The place was packed. People had little kids there, and other people were hogging the rocking chairs which was not a nice thing to do when my 75 year old mother would have loved to have a comfortable seat to sit in. Anyhow, the doctor finally came and talked to us after the surgery was over, around 1:15 Pm. All went well, which was good. He had back surgery about 1 1/2 years ago, and Dr. Kang said he had to pretty much redo the whole surgery. Screws were loose, and he had to fuse the discs. He stayed in recovery until 5:30 PM. They told us, they had to wait for a room to clear out, and then to have it cleaned. Was a long day for us all. We saw Dad, and he looked okay, and was cracking jokes, so, we felt it was okay to head home. We got home around 8 PM. Had to work today, and boy was it hot! Dawna turned on the Air Conditioning this morning. Feels good in the house. Talked to Rose tonight, and she said they had Dad up out of bed today, which is very good. He could be home by Monday.
Pirates and Rockies are on TV now. Gonna go watch some of it and then head to bed. Old guys like me can't stay up late anymore. Need my beauty sleep! Talk to you all later!
