Vacation

This past weekend we took a "mini-vacation" to Georgia to see my cousin and her girls. Sunday was her littlest ones birthday. The child was seriously bringing in the "Lalaloopsy" stuff. I don't think I had ever heard of them until now. It was a great visit. Didn't take as long to get there as we thought it would. We left Saturday morning around 9-ish. Had to stop for gas once and food once. I'm thinking we got to her house around 3. Hung out, catching up. Sunday was the birthday party, was a good time. Too bad I couldn't eat a piece of cake, but I know I would have paid DEARLY for it if I had. So, I refrained and drank my water. After the party, we went back to their house and relaxed. Went to bed around 10 or so, had to get up early to come home.
We got up at 7 to get ready to come home. Brian wanted to come home the scenic route, via Hwy 17 instead of I-95. I figured, "Why not? I don't have to be anywhere until Tuesday". It was a really nice ride. We saw the memorial for the "Charleston 9". The 9 firefighters that were killed in the furniture superstore fire back on June 18, 2007. What a sad situation.
We had lunch at Red Lobster in Myrtle Beach. Neither of us have ever eaten there. It was good. I didn't like fish before I had this surgery, surprisingly, I can tolerate it now. I had stuffed flounder. Brian had fish and chips. He gave me a small taste of his haddock, I tasted it and busted out laughing because it truly tasted like chicken to me. He thought I was strange, oh well.
We got home around 4 or so. Approaching the house, saw a black dog out by the road. LOUIE!!! Darn dog had dug out under the gate AGAIN. OHHHH I was soo mad!!. Got him back in the fence and put a cinderblock in the hole and filled it back in. As we walked up on the porch, we could hear Fenway just inside the door. He knew we were home and was so excited.
Well, within 5 minutes of us being home, we found out what Fenway had been doing with his time while we were gone..........our bedroom was DESTROYED. All the ink pens that were on my nightstand were chewed up or on the floor, lotion was chewed, his ear medicine was chewed, my watch band was chewed until it was almost gone! OH we were not happy. But, we couldn't fuss at him because he hadn't done it where we could catch him. I just calmly picked everything up and put it away. Not so good ending to a good weekend.
Now, tomorrow I go back to the doctor for my 6 week post op check. When I got home this afternoon, after I got the mess picked up, I got on the Wii Fit to check my progress. I know its not as accurate as it would be in the mornings, but it told me I was down to 213. I'm hoping the scale at the doctors office is pretty close to that!!!!
Well, will post again later.
