Sunday
We still were on vacation in Branson, and we had a great time! Even though it's only 30 minutes away from Springfield, it was still a good get-away for our family.
This evening I did the weekly grocery shopping since it needed to be done, and while I was gone, Lydia gave Malachi a buzz cut and put the kids to bed.
Monday
At my request, Lydia made chicken tenders for supper! Yum!
The big event for this evening was cleaning fish tank. The tank had gotten so dirty and green that it was hard to make out how many fish we had! It was gross.
I dumped the water, cleaned the rocks and fake plants, and filled it up with water. It took most of the evening to do, but I got it done! Whew!
Tuesday
Lydia's eye was bugging her, so she went to the clinic after picking up Mysia when she got off work. Come to find out She has pink-eye! She waited around for almost an hour to pick up her prescription, so I picked Malachi up from daycare and made supper before her and Mysia got home.
Wednesday
Today was a typical Wednesday, and we rushed to church after getting of work and eating a quick supper. The kids were both tired, and but did pretty well sitting with us in services.
Thursday
Nothing real big happened today. We had ravioli for supper and watched some tv together as a family before sending the kids to bed. Lydia had homework to do.
Friday
Today was our 8th year anniversary. I had planned to get off early so that we could make our way back up to Silver Dollar City and see one of the Southern Gospel shows. However, we were a bit tired, and figured it would a bit of a hassle to deal with the kids at the park just to fight the crowd.
So... we had a fun night at home with the kids! We had hamburgers, watched RugRats, snacked on candy, played several games on the Wii, and had a blast!
Saturday
There were several things we had planned to do today, but that all was changed when we woke up. The kids didn't allow us to sleep in much, and it didn't really matter. Lydia woke up with a weird pain in her chest and short of breath. She tried to let her body relax, but it wasn't working.
I called my mom, and Abigail came over to watch the kids while I took Lydia to Urgent Care. Once we got there, Lydia filled out some forms and was shortly taken back to a room. I stayed in the waiting room. It was too long and I was asked to come back as well. Come to find out, they had taken her pulse and found it to be over 170. The nurse said it was like her body was running a marathon.
They plugged her up, strapped her down, and took her to ER. Once there, they decided to giver her medicine to stop her heart for a second to allow it to restart. Lydia had a unique experience when that happened! She said that all of her pain intensified.
The best thing though, was that it worked. Her heart started beating at a regular pulse. We then waited as they watched her for an hour to make sure everything was fine before releasing her.
Once everything was determined to be okay, she was good to go. We got pizza on the way home and had a pretty good evening. Lydia took it easy.
