As if I wasn't obsessed enough with goats...do you think goat birthing will count as a valid reason to call off of work? :pop

Thank you mamaboid, for fixing the camera! I can see so much better now! I love how you won't allow your face in the camera, or did you when I had to go potty? :lol: :pop

I ate lunch, supper and dessert with Elsie, :lol: I don't consciously keep my face out of the camera, it is just the angle it is set at all you see is my big belly and dirty barn clothes. The camera has been giving me fits today with all the electrical problems we have been having. It is snowing, sleeting and the wind is blowing here tonight, so hopefully the electric will stay on.

My cat scan and Dr. appt. tomorrow are going to take me from at least 10am til 4:30 or so to get back home. I just know she is going to wait til I leave.

I had some major abdominal surgery in 2010, and threw blood clots into both of my lungs. Now I have a very large hernia in my incision that has to be fixed. With the blood clot situation, this becomes a very big deal that I am NOT looking forward to. The Dr.s don't seem to think that scheduling my surgery around does giving birth is a good idea, but to me it seems perfectly reasonable. Wish me luck and if she doesn't have those babies tonight during the sleet and rain storm, then cross your fingers she waits til I get home tomorrow night. Dh cannot take off tomorrow even tho he is self employed because he is in the middle of a project that is short on time. Maybe if you all watch her she will know it and hold off til she thinks she is alone. ;)

I bet you did. There is nothing wrong with dirty barn clothes. If you were all dolled up, there would be something wrong with that. :lol: Could you imagine having to get all dolled up just to go out to Elsie? :lol: :fl I hope that it stays on. Oh I hope not. Oh I pray that everything goes well tomorrow. I hope you aren't going to do anything that can hurt yourself after your surgery. Wish I lived close, O would help out, if you would want it, that is. I will have you in my prayers for your surgery to go well, and for Elsie to have them tonight or after you get home tomorrow. I will have her on my screen all tomorrow. :caf Sorry to hear that you have been having to go through such troubles. Hopefully after the surgery tomorrow, everything will be ok. Please let us know how everything goes tomorrow. Take care.

Today is just the cat scan and surgeon visit to set up the surgery, so I will be home tonight in one piece. That is if the roads cooperate. We had ice and freezing rain last night and the roads are a mess. The drive to the hospital is an hour long under good circumstances, and these are definitely not good roads. Thanks for your prayers and good thoughts, I know from experience they do work.

OK, now to Elsie. As far as I can tell, she has made NO changes at all overnight. She slept well, while I was awake every hour checking on her. I have given her strict orders that she is to wait til I get home or the consequences will be harsh. She didn't look too impressed, so :fl :fl :fl

Oh ok, well I will still pray that all goes well today with the scan, and that you get there and back safely. Will you let us know when the surgery is, so I can pray for you?

:lol: Well I hope that she listens to those orders. :lol: Consequences will be harsh, that's a good laugh. Good luck today! Know I will be praying for you. :hugs

Elsie needs to move back towards the camera. :/ Mamaboid, I am keeping an eye on your girl today, and prayers have been going your way all this morning. :D Can't wait for you to get back and find out that you made it home, and so Elsie can her baby/babies. :woot
