Yes it still hurts and no, I can’t talk yet. Last night my sister in law came in for a visit at about 4am. We knew that she was coming so we were waiting. It was cold and after she got settled in with her husband and dogs we tried to sleep. That didn’t happen but I did read a lot of my book. I’m on chapter 24 and it’s great. Tomorrow is thanksgiving and I don’t think that I’m going to be able to eat that much. Oh well. I’ve lost 15 lbs on my “no solid food diet” more tomorrow if I survive.

I can’t talk
Today has been a very busy day for me. I woke up at 7am and took a shower then helped get the kids ready to go next door for the day. After my heart broke at the sound of my son crying, due to my leaving, my wife and I left for the hospital. Today I got my tonsils out. Let me just tell you that it hurts. Not as much as I thought it would but it still hurts. I can’t talk, I can hardly eat, drinking is a little bit of a chore, but I got Perkasets. I will be out of work until December 3rd but I still have to do my school work. Oh well, can’t win them all.
I was lucky and did not have to spend the night. There was some question as I sleep with a C-PAP machine and have sleep apnea. After picking up the kids and giving them dinner my son asked me to read him a book. If you remember from the first paragraph I can’t talk. It’s a good thing that my son and I both have a passable vocabulary of sign language. Using our unspoken communication we went through every page of the book and even added commentary. Go Dogs Go.
Well I’m going to bed where I am sure that my lack of tonsils will continue to hurt. Good night all.
