I've felt sick to my stomach all day and kind of head achey. I took something for the headache and tried to drink water (I don't drink enough water) and not be on the computer, but I still feel icky.
Tomorrow is Maple Festival here in town. Well technically it started today, but I'm going downtown to look around. Depending on how I feel. Will is coming up, he wants to go see a movie -looks like Jurassic Park 3D is still playing and he's never seen it so maybe we'll go see that.
Mom is supposed to come visit me on May 7 but those plans may be on hold. My dad hurt his back really badly - by being really dumb.
I love my dad, but he was down at the beach and going to mow the lawn and he has a push mower you start with a cord and cross body action. So he tweaked his back.
That's not the problem.
The problem happened when he went back to town and decided to move some logs around from a "small" tree he had cut down last week. And then he did something and the pain was so bad he went to the ER. And then he had tingling in his feet and called his doctor who is scheduling an MRI.
Dad will be 71 in August. (Which kind of freaks me out) but he doesn't think that he can't do things that he used.
This impacts Mom's trip because my nephew's schedule is such that Mom takes him to preschool and picks him up because it's half day and so it both starts and ends when my brother and his girlfriend are at work.
I'm feeling homesick and I really wanted a week with Mom and just spend time with her. I know it will happen but she kept putting it off because of scheduling issues and her own reluctance to travel and so I'm worried that she'll keep putting off rescheduling (if it comes to rescheduling).
