6/1/2010 Return of the Dex

It's about 5:00 am and I'm up and blogging, that probably means one thing, I started 4 days of Dex yesterday morning - but not early enough.

I probably would have been up a while ago, but we have a house guest for the next 8 or 9 weeks and I didn't want to disturb her or in turn Patty until at least now so I waited. Our house guest is Addie, Josh's 7-8 month old Scottish Terrier. Josh starts a 4 week rotation with a Costco Pharmacy this morning and because of the long days he didn't want to leave her alone for 9-10 hours a day for 5-6 days in a row so we agreed to take her for June and July since after Costco he does another 4 week rotation with a rehabilitation hospital during July. He is out of school during all of August so he will probably be up here for much of August and so in reality Addie will be living here for most of 3 months. She is a pretty good dog, but needs a little more supervision during the next couple of months to help her become a good dog. Amanda will get her share of doggie sitting during the times we have to go to St. George, so it will be a family affair.

We got a new couch delivered on Saturday, we had gone to RC Willey looking for one last week and were planning on waiting until their Memorial Day Sale, but this one was already marked down and we liked it for our needs. it is a sectional and has 4 recliner sections. We think we're going to like it. It's comfortable and has good back support for our bodies.

Back to work today for everyone lucky enough to have a holiday on Monday. This will sound very bad for those of you that work 5 days a week, especially if you didn't get yesterday off, but for me it now a 3 day work week, which is very difficult because we work with contractors, they will be expecting us to get 4 days of work in the 3 days, which is impossible, but the demand is still there. Of course I'm relying on my memory of 3 day weeks gone by, now pretty much all weeks are 3 day weeks, so it is a little different for me now.

Don't have too much medical to talk about this morning, had a very good day yesterday, we didn't do much, but I feel very good. We talked to mom and dad yesterday, that was good. Like I said, started another 4 days of Dex yesterday, going to take today's dose earlier today than I did yesterday to see if they can clear the system before I wake up to solve the world's problems at 4:30 or 5:00 tomorrow, who knows, maybe the next blog will be at 2:00 or 3:00, I hope not.
