Tonight we play the Kansas City Chiefs and we should, and I said should, beat the hell out of them. But this is football which is unpredictable so you never know. We’re leaving around 4pm and will tailgate with a dozen or so people. As I said yesterday, Aime is making her chili which should hit the spot as it’s supposed to be really cold.
It’s about 7am and I managed to get some good sleep which I needed as my nose was stuffed up and I’m trying to fight off a cold. If I get sick, then Lori usually gets sick which means they would then cancel her surgery so I’m staying far far away from her. I’m also drinking lots of tea and taking Cold Snap trying to fight it off. I feel a little better this morning and at least my nose isn’t stuffed up. Hopefully it was just allergies.
Lori climbed up in the attic while Jag and I were at REI, and she carried down the tree. There’s no stopping her when she’s on a mission. The tree is up with lights on and most of the ornaments. Earlier in the morning I cleaned out the Suburban and Jag and I went to the car wash for an hour long detail of the inside of the car. There’s only so much I can do without all the equipment they have to remove all the kid gunk that gets built up from years of use. You wouldn’t believe the mess. Anyhow now the car looks brand new. I picked up some much needed winter gloves for Ty (we bought Jag some at Cabela’s a month ago) and some other stuff for both cars winter survival kits. Here in Colorado you should not go to the mountains without water, food, heat and other stuff in the winter. We had to get some new beeswax candles and a couple of water bottles.
I need to run so wish us luck tonight. It will be very very disappointing if we do not win big time tonight.
We have a big week in front of us. Lori has to get some prescriptions from the store today to start prepping for her big day. For 5 days she needs to wash herself with a special soap after she gets out of the shower and then get back in and rinse it off. She also can’t shave her legs 24 hours before the operation as they don’t want ANY open cuts, even the microscopic ones you get when shaving to avoid any chance of infection. This of course is a major concern for her, she asked yesterday if she could use Nair and I said no! Friends from Steamboat who will be at the game stopped by yesterday and she had a fusion surgery also. Lori wasn’t aware until a few days ago that she’d be wearing a collar for months so now we’re trying to figure out a scarf wardrobe to cover it up. Anyhow the headache is still there. I woke up at 2 and she was awake with her head. I think she falls asleep around 4 each morning so I’m letting her sleep. We’re praying this fixes her all up!
God Bless you and God Bless the Denver Bronco’s!
