Change of Plan

So just a few hours after my last post( let's see- posted at 9:30, woke up at 12:30) Rustin woke up doubled over in pain and about to throw-up. He was hurting on one side of his lower back, so we figured it was something kidney related. The pain just kept getting worse and worse, so we finally called Rus's dad to take him to the hospital. Turns out he has kidney stones, which, we have been told, is EXTREMELY painful. Rus would have to agree with that. Needless to say, High Adventure camp went out the window, and has been replaced with many MRI's and doctor visits. At today's visit they determined that the stone is stuck and not making it's way to the bladder as it should be. Hence, he get's to go in monday and have them blasted away!! Hopefully he a brand new man after that. So, what I thought was going to be a husbandless weekend has turned into something totally different. I have still been doing all those things that I mentioned, but I get to crawl into bed at night with my hubby by my side. Love it.

kings peak

Well, the countdown is on. My husband is leaving for high adventure camp in T-minus 8 1/2 hours(but who's counting??). I guess you could say that he checked out about 6:30 tonight because that's when the YM showed up to drop gear off/finish an eagle project/unload work chores on Dan(at his house) ect, ect, ect. I'm sure I won't be seeing him again this evening. I should probably mention that High Adventure camp is a 50 mile hike up kings peak (the hard way) which they will accomplish Wednesday through Saturday. Let's hope. Surprisingly, I am not feeling too bad about being left to fend for myself and my four kids. We have so many things going on to keep us occupied, I don't think we will have the downtime to get super bored. Between early intervention classes for Gavin and I, Camping with my family, The parade that my kids and I get to walk in(super cool), and birthday parties, how could we get bored. I think every minute he is gone we have something to do. My only fear is that the moment he walks through the door I am going to drop dead from exhaustion from doing it all. BUT, I would rather be busy, than not. So, here's to an adventursome next few days!
