Finally Home for a DAY!!!

Wow we are finally home!!  Of course it isn't for long, we have to head back out to Salt Lake tomorrow for more rehab but we got to come home today after a month at the hospital.  Update because I haven't talked to any of my three readers but Ben was in a motorcycle accident, a damn antelope jumped out in front him as he was cruising along at 75mph down the highway.  I would like to say that this has been the most traumatic thing that ever happened to us, I can't say that. Ben was in the ICU and if I ever have to see him with a ventilator shoved down his throat I don't know what will happen.  He whacked his head pretty hard and had a traumatic brain injury, which caused other problems.  I saw severe mood swings, along with a lot of frustration, but in the end Ben is going to be okay.  The biggest problem now is that he has to get approval to drive and to go back to work but he has to hang out with me.  HAHA Sucker!!!  No just kidding he isn't a sucker, but I really think there was a higher power looking out for him and we had some important lessons to learn.  I just got to put things to put in to a new perspective and I think life will be better.  I had forgotten who I was for a time and for the first time in a long time I feel like me again.  You know sarcastic but sweet, kind of shit but still likeable.  I think things will be better.
