last few days

Well, it has been a long few days.

On Wednesday night, while I was at work, Steven was wrestling at a meet at Carlton Airport. In his match against a kid from Sand Creek, he was slammed head first into the mat and got a concussion.

Dan called me the emergency room at UM hospital. I left work and sat with him and Steven until they cleared him to go home after the CT scan. That was a long night for all of us. I think that Dan got about two hours of sleep. Steven obviously felt like hell warmed over.

We are keeping him home until after he sees his doctor on Monday morning.

So yesterday we parents fretted and worried about our little son, though he was showing no symptoms beyond a bad headache.

Today was computer day. Dan and I are getting a new computer and broadband for the entire family for Christmas. Dan's computer guru dude set up the hardware in the morning, then the broadband guy came out in the afternoon. The new computer is working fine, but the computer guru is coming back out tomorrow to make sure that the router is working right, and that we can use the internet on the old computer (which is networked to the new one) and the wireless part works right so Bill can use his laptop up in his room. Hopefully this will all work out, and that everyone will be happy with it.

Bill is home for three weeks, which makes me happy (as well as Dan and Steven, of course)!

I'm glad that there was a gap in the winter storms for him to drive safely home from central Indiana. The next storm will hit tomorrow night. We are only due for five inches of snow, but Muncie is due for a round of freezing rain and a foot of snow.

Today was a very bad day for the dog. Four urine cleanups and counting...
