Last night, I had a hard time falling asleep. I just had this feeling that I wasn't going to get much sleep. Yeah, I was uber bummed about the Puppy thing, but I just knew in my heart that Colleen was going to have her son...

Today, at 0300 this morning, Colleen's mother called me to tell me that Colleen was in labor. Her water broke at 0230. I was dressed, move two cars and on the road to Mt. Clemens General Hospital by 0310, and at the Hospital walking around trying to get up stairs to the 3rd level by 0419. BTW, I live in Westland, and it takes well over 45 minutes to an hour to get to Chesterfield/ Mt. Clem. area. I got there in under 45.... I drove very fast.

Then, after over 11 hours of labor and an emergency C-Section, at 1314 on today, 27 November, 2007, I got to help welcome my Nephew,

Just after he was born. In his warming bed.

Nope, just the last one. They tried to turn him (he was backwards) to induce in a few weeks and I'd have to wear this band thing to keep him from turning. (I still have the band somewhere), but he went into distress, so they c-sectioned him right then and there. I was soooo scared. I had never even had an epidural ......

Good thing they c-sectioned him. Just under 34 weeks and he was already 8 lbs. 7 oz!

      How Are You Feeling? (cont'd)

      By TronRP · Posted

      I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.
