Survived the Flood

-

Knowing that it rained today, I’m sure that most of you would assume that this meant, we didn’t wash away with the rain.  It was a nice rainy day.  And since Justin is still recovering, we had the liberty of sleeping in late and lounging around today.  (Back to our college days when it was just “too messy” to go to class.)  But this is not what I mean by the title.  Since, it was a rainy day, we played HALO!

For those of you who are not familiar, let me fill you in.  HALO is an XBOX game.  (We like to run and gun.)  Halo 3 came out a year or so ago, and we bought it because Justin was “raised” on this game.  This is one thing that we do together.  So, Yeah I would say that I am a wonderful wife because not all ladies would endure this wonderful time consuming combat.  When Justin and I were at MSU, he always tried to buy Xbox games that I would like to play with him (Bugs Bunny, Golf, Looney Tunes).  Now to brag on my husband, I get to watch the chick-flicks that I want see.   He has endured all 10 seasons of Friends, Pretty Woman, Failure to Launch, I could go on, but let me get back to the point.

Justin and I have already beaten Halo 3 (when it came out) on Heroic!  (Levels are Easy, Normal, Heroic, Legendary) Now we are replaying the game on Legendary.  Its really all about bragging rights.  So, today we completed “The Flood”.  I won’t go into detail about it, but “The Flood” is not rain!

Even though it took a few hours of the day, it was nice just spending time together!  I have actually gotten much better and get in to the game too!  I’m sure our lives will change drastically if we have kids, but for now we are happy just playing Xbox together!

Update and Welcome

I know that many of you are new to our blog, so welcome! Justin and I enjoy blogging about our lives, but I know that many of you have just joined us for surgery. So, please stay tuned for the rest of our lives as well! Justin is doing well. He has rested most of the day. He also sat up in a chair for an HOUR! He said his chest pain was fine, but he couldn't get his neck comfortable in that chair ( because he wanted to SLEEP!) He has been a great patient and has his normal humor. He also has comments that make little to no sense and probably won't remember most of this! Funny Comments from Justin today - Mrs. Anita was talking to Justin and finally said, "I think you're sleeping, so I'm going to leave you along. " to which Justin replied (With eyes closed) - "I can multitask!" Mom was cracking jokes by his bed and said, "I guess you don't think this is funny." And I said, "That's ok , right Justin, that is how we tal

Well you will notice (assuming I get internet and get to post this blog) that it is in fact 12:17am.  If you know me at all, you know that I am not awake at this time by choice!  Also keep in mind that it is technically 1:17 where I am. Let me walk you through the day  . . . Mrs. Anita and Mr. Jimmy arrived in Ecru around 8am to pick us up.  The ride to the Memphis airport was quick and talkative.  We arrived at the airport around 9:30.   We unloaded all the bags at the curb and the men went to park the car.  Just trying to get a jump start on the day, I went to the ticket counter (where there was no line!) to see if I could get us checked in.  The man let me check all the bags and bumped us up to an earlier flight.  He was afraid that due to the weather, our 12:45 flight would be delayed.  When we got the gate we found out that the flight we were put on was also delayed.  The original flight was late getting to Charlotte, then flew to Memphis but could not land because of weather.

Welcome new readers

First, I would like to welcome our new blog readers to our lives online.  Because of Justin’s heart situation, we have some new readers to our blog.  I would like to encourage you to follow after this is all over with as well.  This is a fun way for Justin and I to share about our “interesting” (although you may not think so) lives! Health Update – Justin and I talked to and received an email from Dr. Gupta, the doc in Tupelo who is taking care of us.  He said that he is sending all of Justin’s info to Dr. Landzberg in Boston.  They should receive the info by Friday and hopefully review his info by Monday.  Dr. Gupta is expecting to hear from them by mid-week at the latest, hopefully by Monday or Tuesday.   So, Justin and the rest of the family are just in the waiting stage.  It reminds me of Dr. Suess’s book “Oh the Places You’ll Go”.  There is a page or two about the “waiting place”.  You can tell from the pictures in the book and the writing, that this is not the best place to be
