just what I needed... or not

My car Cali is broken! (yes, my car has a name). It's still sitting in a parking lot because I didn't know where to tow it to yet. Even if I knew where to take it, I wouldn't have the money to fix it. On top of everything else going on this week, I really didn't need to be without a car. I wish not everything had to happen at once. I handle things better one thing at a time. I feel completely overwhelmed right now, and I would like it to go away...

Prayer Request

If everything goes as planned (and if I can keep Aaron well for the next few days) he is scheduled to have surgery on Wednesday. He will be getting his 2nd set of ear tubes, and they will also be removing his adnoids. I don't think they will be removing his tonsils, but it's a possibility. I know in the long run it will help him stay well. I still can't help but worry. So please pray for him (and if it's not too selfish, for me too- I will be waiting at the hospital with Adam and his girlfriend ... ). The surgery is supposed to take about an hour. Afterwards he has to stay at least 4 hours to be monitored. He will have to have pain medication for several days after the surgery. The surgeon said it's possible that the pain medicine could make him sick. Aaron will not be able to be outside or to play and run around for about 3 weeks. If he gets excited and runs or plays too much, or if his allergies outside bother him, then the scab inside from the adnoids could come loose and his nose will bleed- a LOT I'm told. I really don't know how to keep a 2 year old boy calm for 3 weeks! I will try my best, but I'm just not sure how to accomplish that for so long. I'm hoping that allergies won't be too bad, and that Aaron's asthma won't give him problems during those 3 weeks. I'm trying to work out now a way for Aaron to not go back to school/daycare for that whole time. My mom is taking off work next Thursday and Friday to keep him. Adam said he would take off some to keep him, however I kinda doubt that will actually happen. My mom and Adam both have paid sick/personal days, and I don't. I will take off any time neccessary to give Aaron the most time to heal. I've already missed over 2 weeks of work in the last 6 weeks, and it's getting a little more difficult with money. Please pray that Aaron can heal quickly, and that I can miss as little work as possible. While you're at it- go ahead and pray for anything and everything else too ;) I will try to post how his surgery goes as soon as I can.

I'm still not ready to say too much about personal stuff going on with me. I have lots I would like to talk about, but I don't feel that I should say anything negative about Adam. So, that makes my 'venting' a little hard to do. The divorce was supposed to be final in February, but the lawyer keeps wanting more money before they finish all the papers. I'm not really sure when it will all be final now. Things were better and easier for a while at first. Lately, it's all been harder. I think too much and then worry too much...
