Whew! What a Week!

Hello! We survived another round of tornados here in Tennessee. I don't like the fact that they have done so much damadge so close to us, but I guess it comes with the territory. Luckily our family is safe and our friends have only suffered minor house damage. It is still scary though.

The same day the tornados came through was the same day that Moon had his surgery. We got home before the weather got too severe so we were happy about that. Moon is doing really well recovering. He sleeps until about 9:30 or later every morning and then spends the rest of the day in the recliner. He has already gotten pretty bored, so to pass time he washes dishes and does laundry. (I'm going to like having him at home for 6 weeks if he keeps this up!) I feel bad that I have to leave him at home by himself, but I know that he is not in pain and that he can do things for himself. In a couple of weeks he will be able to drive again, so it won't be too bad for him.

Here is a picture of Moon's scar. This was taken a day after surgery. He was allowed to take the dressing off and take a shower. He even gave me permission to take this picture to post on here. He is pretty bruised on the right side; I'm not sure if that is from the hernia or the other things they took out. He only has pain when he tries to bend down and he thinks it is because it is a horizontal cut and not vertical.

All in all, things are going good here. We will keep you updated. We love and miss you!
