Do You Know What SASH Means?

A ribbon that goes around a dress, right? Or maybe the piece of fabric a scout attaches all their awards on... well, I recently learned another meaning that you probably don't know.

 

Three times a day, 8:00am, 4:00pm, and midnight, I pull this page out to help me remember the order for my sweetie's infusion. 

First, I pull out the antibiotics (they are the A).

Saline goes two places and the H stands for Heparin, a blood thinner to make sure the PICC line doesn't stop working.

After everything is laid out, I scrub my hands and then pull on my disposable gloves.

Everything requires an alchol prep to keep things mostly sterile.

Saline first. Then it's time for the specially-made just for my sweetie antibiotics. 

I have to take at least 3 minutes and no more than 5 to push them through. I count to 20 or sing the ABC song as the plunger passes each measured line. Saline, Heparin, then a little green cap; one more done as we slowly crawl toward December 2nd and hopefully, the very last syringe. 

I don't need the words anymore, but the SASH board gives me comfort and security. This is something I just can't mess up.

Have You Ever Been on an Arctic Adventure?

Well, I haven't. But I am super excited to go! Our friends at US Family Guide are partnering with the World of Illumination group so that I can tell you all about it and hopefully save you a little money on this fun and exciting light show. 

I am going on the very first day and if you check back after that, you know I will give you my honest opinion of the event. Fortunately, I am a true lover of Christmas lights and I have yet to find a show that I didn't love and appreciate.

So this a drive through show that you pay by the carload. You know I have a coupon for you...

Bossy's Vacation Pics

Bossy keeps sending me pics, so I thought I would share them with you.

Ramblings

I didn't post yesterday. There wasn't much to say. After Princess and her littles left, I climbed the stairs to spend time with my sweetie. I worry about him every day. This morning the doc took out the stwitches. Now they are ALL gone!

I got away for a few minutes of shopping. Christmas deals at JC Penneys and Christmas soaps at Bath and Body Works.

So excited for Christmas! Can hardly wait for a Christmas miracle...
