Update

At last an update:

But first, a big thank you to everyone who posted notes of support and concern. You people rock. *smooch*

Dad is doing much better. He still gets tired very easily, but according to the literature they gave me this is common for stroke victims. He is definitely not back to normal and I'm not really sure he will ever be the dad he was before the stroke, but as long as he feels better that is all I care about.

We had a follow-up appointment with the neurologist May 9th and he told us if the stroke had moved 1 millimeter further his entire left side would have been affected. If that had happened Dad would probably be in a nursing home (or at least a rehab center). Very lucky man, my dad.

My life has been a series of doctor's appointments, work, chauferring Dad all over the place, chores around the house, chores outside the house (meaning mowing, weed whacking, garbage toting, recycling, etc). I did manage to plant some flowers this weekend (YAY!) but yard work for me this spring has been strickly the not fun icky stuff - the aforementioned mowing, weed whacking, etc.). To prove my point, it's not even June and I have already gotten poison ivy on both arms. Stupid poison ivy!

Other stuff:

LOST has been so awesome this year. Kristen at E!Online states the finale will be a huge shocker, even better than last year's fast forward jaw dropper. On one hand I can't wait, and on the other hand I don't want it to be over because we have to wait until next year. Stupid writers' strike! Such a weird television season this year.

Anyone else watch Ghosthunters on SCIFI? I don't know why, but I love that show. I prefer the shows that do not feature Brian Harnois (he's a total dillweed), but I watch even when he is on (only because I know Jason will yell at him, which is a good thing).

Well, I thought I had other things to comment on, but I'm drawing a blank. This usually happens when I sit down to make a blog post. When I'm not at my computer I think of a zillion things I want to say in my blog, but when I'm actually doing a post I can't think of squat. Does this happen to you? *looks over at you* Or you? *points over there* No. Not you. * points to Bravie*
