No Bo shows for me in August


Yesterday hubby and I went to his surgeon and he scheduled the operation for August 12, the day I was going to leave for the Council Bluffs and Springfield shows. I'm pretty much OK with the fact that I'm missing the shows, in fact I had a feeling that I would be so I prepared myself. But I do feel bad about messing up my friends' plans. But they are such wonderful, supportive friends that they are being very understanding.

I'll admit I'm scared about Jimmy's surgery. The doctor explained it to him with diagrams and you should have seen his face. He says he hasn't wrapped his mind around the fact that he's having this major thing done.

We discussed the surgeries that Bo went through on the way to Huntsville. Of course Bo was a younger man than Jimmy, but he's a fighter and so is my husband. I'm trusting that everything is going to be all right and I'm insisting that he take care of himself and not push himself back to work too soon.

Next Saturday we are going to go to Pelham to the Poker Run, BBQ Lunch, Raffle and Silent Auction. Jimmy wants to talk to Bo and I hope he gets the opportunity. Last year he did, so maybe things will work out for him to this time around.

I guess I'm accepting this show disappointment pretty well because of the fact that I'll see Bo next weekend, plus the show in Helena is next month. But nothing comes before my husband, and I'm going to do my best to take care of him while he recovers.

In the meanwhile, I have good friends who always call, text and send me pictures when they are at shows. Deb kept me in the loop about all the happenings in CT and NY the past couple of days. Of course I wish I could have been there, but knowing that my friends are thinking of me means so much. I don't know what I'd do without them.
