MONDAY

Well, here its Monday, June 29th 2009 and life seems to moving along... :)

Victor had his procedure last Thursday. They discovered that he has the beginnings of a bleeding ulcer between his stomach and the mouth of his pancreas. His doctor took him off one more medication; that apparantly causes internal bleeding. We now know why his blood tests were indicating that he was anemic. An added bonus: I was on the same medication and I have since tossed it out. Don't want to end up in the same condition as Victor. Not a pleasant idea.

So far Victor has been taken off all meds except for three. His primary doctor had him on at least six. I can't remember any more... :)

While they were looking around inside they also performed a biopsy. We have not yet heard the results.

Victor continues to get stronger and has had many compliments on how good he looks. Quite handsome and trim these days. He plans to keep the weight off. As he continues to go to the gym he gets closer to looking the way he did when we started dating 15 years ago. This has become an added incentive for me to work harder on losing the weight. I plan to get down to the size I was 15 years ago.

Any one care to guess what I weighed and what size dress I wore 15 years ago?

Any way, when we get up to UTAH the family will be shocked to see the incredible transformation of my yummy husband.

REMODELING

Well, I got an itch to make my living space a little better and I have begun remodeling the bathroom... :)

the walls are painted; the crown molding is up; molding around the window has been nailed down; a new curtain rod with pretty sheers has been hung; new sconces and towel rods have been hung... :) I am very tired

Bought a new vanity.

Yesterday Victor and John moved the plumbing over to fit the new vanity.

Today Victor and I chipped out the odd pieces of tile so that we can lay down tile before the vanity goes in... Victor promises that the tile will go in tomorrow.

After the tile the floor molding goes in and then the the vanity can go in.

When it is all done I'll take pictures for you all to see... :)

VICTOR IS HOME

Last night I brought Victor home after nearly two weeks in the hospital.

He has lost a total of 20 lbs and his clothes are huge on him. He is a little two skinny... :(

He is a little weak, but should begin gaining strength over the next few days as he moves about and eats better. We ran a couple errands together this afternoon and it wore him out. He took a nap for about an hour this afternoon.

He had his hair cut this afternoon and this morning after he took a shower he shaved his beard and now he only has his long mustache like he did when we first began dating.

Victor is happy to be home and that he doesn't have to have tubes coming out of him. For a period of time he thought of himself as a BORG and would say: "Resistance is Futile" to make his guests laugh.

I am glad he has escaped the grips of the BORG collective and has rejoined the Gonzales Collective. He and Capt Picard could have a nice long chat... :)

Thanks for all your love and support over the past two weeks.
