Teamwork

My mom phoned me on Tuesday to ask me if I could help her lay floor in her rental property. I could here the distress in her voice. I decided to go up Thursday after work to see how much we could get done. My mom, my sister and myself worked into the night we had gotten the living room laid and called it a night. I took Scott to chemo the next morning and headed back to try to finish the kitchen and hallway.

Scott gets discombobulated after chemo so I really wanted to finish and get him back home to his own bed. I told him to call my cell phone when they started the Avastin. When he called we had probably 6 pieces to lay so I decided to finish to pick him up. I was a little late but it worked out perfect. We had taken up MRI's and needed to speak with Dr. Nick. Dr. Nick was very pleased with MRI's and the area is stable. Yay!! Scott has now been moved from 6 weeks to 8 week reviews. This is great news!

I did get Scott home and neither of us felt our head hit the pillow. It's nice to be in our own bed, where we can both rest.

My mom is feeling overwhelmed over all the work that needs to be done. So I offered to go up again Thursday afterwork and help her either lay carpet or baseboard, so she can get it rented. My mother, my sister and I make a great team. You forget how well you work together. After it was done my sister mentioned how much fun it was. It was weird because I felt the same way.

Skylar called me and told me she was packing to come and see me. So looks like I am going to have a full day tomorrow also. I am hoping she will occupy herself so I can get a few things done. I always hope but, it never works out that way. ; ) I have a wedding and a shower coming up in two weeks and am feeling a bit stressed.
