- Surgery recovery is going well. Jacob got up and walked quite a bit yesterday. He's moving around easier after a very significant surgery leaving him a large new scar and two little ones. We are so proud of him. He's far from painfree, but he's coping well with that.
- He's got a nasty sinus thing going on. They ruled out bacterial infection yesterday with the CT scan. He's sporting the Rudolph look with a VERY red nose from blowing it so often. Sneezing is also no fun post surgery. This craziness led to being awake from 1:30-6:00am today. We are tired. Tom didn't sleep well at the Ronald McDonald House last night either.
- Additionally Jacob is having some heart rhythm issues. I think they may increase the new medicine that he started this weekend. We will find out when the team comes for rounds.
SOOOOOO...... this is what we are asking.....
Please join us in a CLEAN JOKE SENDING CONTEST and/or A PHOTO CAPTIONING CONTEST!!!
So.... let the fun begin. You can comment on this post or on our FB status or if those aren't options you can email Tom at 1kwagoneer@gmail.com.
You can get to Tom's photo blog on our main page and then click on the "Pics" tab.
Thanks for your prayers as we try to persevere and be nice to one another as we get even more tired. We are SO READY for JACOB to FEEL BETTER!!!!
and... taking a shower would be nice, too! ;) Hoping that might happen today, too. Dr. Rodefeld even stopped by and suggested it... without our prompting! :)
Joke from my good friend Brady
ReplyDelete2 - 2 on making us laugh
George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and George Bush are in a plane.
The pilot says that the passengers must lighten their load. so the three presidents decide to drop one item
George Washington drops a quarter
Abe Lincoln drops a penny
George Bush drops a grenade
When the presidents land, they find someone holding their head and cursing.
George Washington asks the man what's wrong.
"i was walking down the street when a quarter falls from the sky and hits my head!"
So the presidents continue down the road and find someone hopping on one foot, holding the other, cursing. Abe Lincoln asks "What happened?"
"i was standing on my porch barefoot when a penny falls from the sky and hits it!"
The presidents continue once more and find a young boy laughing hysterically.
George Bush asks "What's so funny?"
The boy replies "i farted and my house exploded!!!"
This is one of my all time favorite jokes!!!
ReplyDeleteHow do you get a kleenex to dance?

ReplyDeleteThere was a captain sailing on the sea during a battle. His servant came up to him and the captain said, "bring me my red shirt".
So, the servant did as the captain said.
After that the servant came up to the captain and said, Why did you say bring me my red shirt"?
The captain said, "Well if i get shot they won't see the blood.
The next day the servant came up to the captain and said, "There are 50 ships on the horizon."
The captain said, "Bring me my brown pants."
Here's one that me and jacob usted to say:
ReplyDeleteOne day a panda bear walks into a bar and orders a ham and cheese sandwich. After he eats it, he leaves. But right as he's walking out, he turns around and shoots everyone in the bar but the bartender. Then the bartender tells the panda, "Hey you can't come in here order a ham and cheese sandwich and shoot everyone in the bar but me without paying." Then the panda tells the bartender, " Sure I can, look me up in the dictionary. So he lloks him up in the dictionary and it says, he eats shootes and leafs.
Praying for ya Jacob.
three ducks came into a bar and sat down.
ReplyDelete1st Duck says, "I'd like a cold drink".
Bartenders says, "you talk?"
Duck says, "of course.:
Bartender asks the first duck, "well then, what is your name and how was your day?"
Duck says, "my name is Louie and I had a great day, jumping up and down on puddles"
Bartender asks the second duck, "do you talk too?"
Second duck says "sure I do."
Bartender says, "well, what is your name & how was your day?'
2nd Duck says, "my name is Huey and I had a great day, jumping up and down on puddles."
Bartender asks the third duck, "Do you talk too?"
3rd duck says, "yes, but before you ask me how my day was, my name is "Puddles."

THANKS SO MUCH, FRIENDS!!!! We have smiled and laughed many times today!
this may be a little late on the jokes u were asking for earlier, but Bill is in rare joke form today.....he just told me the last time he went to get his brakes worked on he saw a worker drinking brake fluid....so I Ryan thought I'd beat him to the punch and say so the guy was on a brake having a drink...Bill says no it was an actual can of brake fluid. So he goes on to tell me "i told the guy that he should stop drinking that stuff because it'll kill ya, but the guys said he was fine because he could STOP at any time"......classic Bill.....
ReplyDeleteFROM STEPHANIE RILEY
ReplyDelete"I think I would make him shower before he leave that room. There are innocent people on the elevators there. Or hang an air freshener around his neck. Poor guy..."
Tell him you guys asked for clean jokes and that's what I thought I was telling!
Ryan
ReplyDeleteJacob thinks Bill is funny so he liked his joke and I told about Bill and Hawaiian shirt Friday

Wondering if an onion would take care off that too

ReplyDeleteThis story was so weak it still made us laugh. Maybe we're just slap happy
You'll like this. I'm in the drive thru at ritzy's and the girl asks me if I want one big bag to put our food in. I say sure. She then hands me 5 small b abs of food
FROM AARON MUSGRAVE... a real life funny moment!
ReplyDeleteI was at the Icemen game and had on a sweatshirt that had a pouch in the front with lots of stuff in it (hat, gloves, etc.)and when I went to use the urinal, I couldn't see down and thought to myself, "hmmm... this must be what Courtney feels like?" (His 34wk pregnant wife.)
Tom, Jacob and I all laughed... we tried to imagine Courtney standing at a urinal... that's just all kinds of wrong!

ReplyDeleteQ. What do you do if you get swallowed by an elephant?
A. Run around until you get pooped out!
WE ARE GOING TO LET ANOTHER DIRTY JOKE THROUGH... STEPHANIE RILEY has made it her personal goal to make clean/dirty jokes until he is able to take a shower...
"Tell him there is a high wind advisory in Indy today and if he goes outside without a shower, he will be responsible for the death of any birds caught in his path! I don't think he wants that and besides I'm sure there are all kinds of things growing on him now! (Jacob didn't think this one was funny!)
CONTINUED COLLECTION of DIRTY JOKES from STEPHANIE RILEY...
DeleteI guess I should stop before he gets mad. Are they going to let (make) him shower today?
(I told her he wasn't laughing.)
He is not laughing cause he knows it's true. If it weren't for his stuffy nose, he would be saying the same thing. I do feel bad cause he is so sweet and would never say such nasty things about anyone else. Of course I'm not sure he could even find anyone else to say those things about.
CONTINUED COLLECTION of DIRTY JOKES from STEPHANIE RILEY...
DeleteWoohoo. No shower for him. They just said on the news that there is a cloud forming above his room outside and they believe it is causing a halt to global warming. Also his friend Pigpen called and said to hang in there, he is on your side.
THE FINALE to STEPHANIE's DIRTY JOKES
DeleteI cried when I saw the echo pictures. You can see the misery in him and I'm making fun of his lack of shower. Would you please tell him I am sorry?
(at that point we were really laughing and thankful because the wait for the shower was finally over!)
