What a day!

So here was how my Monday went...first I was still awake at 2:30 this morning and my alarm went off at 6:40am. I left home at 7:30 this morning to head to Atlantic. I had First Aid and CPR from 8 till 12. Then my lunch, which I dumped my french fries on the floor of my car. They gave me the wrong salad and it tasted awful. I went back into the office for a little more info and that's when I got a phone call on the office phone. That was really strange, I thought. The coordinator said it was Sheila, she's my best friend. I had already talked to her twice so I picked up the phone and that's when she said it "Mark called me and he is at the hospital and he is having surgery at 4:30". That's when I said "What?" Mark's incision site had been red and a little warm over the last week or so. I thought it looked infected but what do I know. They had been really watching it at physical therapy and today, the lead therapist said she thought it needed to be looked at. Her mom works for the surgeon that did his surgery and so he got in. They tried to squeeze out the infection but to no avail. They needed to reopen the incision and do some exploratory surgery to see what was going on. I left Atlantic at 3:05, stopped at home and feed Gracie and headed to Carroll to the hospital. I got there an hour and fifteen minutes later and headed to same day surgery. I'd been there before... and I found Mark ready to go into surgery. The bad news is he had to stay overnight and get pumped full of antibiotics. He came through surgery just fine. The infection was contained to a nickel size area at the bottom of the incision under the skin. They scraped it out and closed it with four more stitches. He should get out of the hospital tomorrow about 5pm. Still not sure if we can make the trip to Spencer for Ryan's game or not. We'll just wait and see how he feels and whether he wants to make the trip or not. I got home at 8:30 and am ready to crash. So no progress on the studio but I did work on some of the inspiration wall.... I framed the photos I wanted and got a rug so maybe by Wednesday I will get some new photos. Well, I'm going to bed... I can't wait to see what tomorrow holds.
