Exceedingly Mundane

The theme for today is Medical.

1) Amanda had surgery this morning to have her tonsils removed, and we’re waiting to hear from Mark on how it all went and how she’s doing. They are supposed to do it outpatient and she should go home this afternoon. I think she’s planning to be off a couple of weeks from work to recover.

2) Tim’s dad came to town today for 2 appointments at the VA. He came to the house between his appointments and we all went to lunch together. He is having a lot of things looked at, and also has to come back next week for more appointments, so hopefully we’ll see him then also.

3) I’m doing new polls on the homepage of Hambones in honor of all these medical going-on’s. There will be a new poll every day. Today’s poll is “have you had your tonsils removed” in honor of Amanda and her surgery. 😀

UPDATE: We just heard from Mark and everything went well. They took out Amanda’s tonsils and what adenoids they found in there also. She is at home now, and resting, and has some pain pills to get her through the next few days. 🙂
