Ironic Pain

DH was discharged from the hospital on Thursday evening. With him came a big basket of flowers with a balloon (from my parents), a basket with green plants and an African Violet (from my work), about fifteen cards from LFH’s cards site (from all of y’all), three cards from friends …

Good Spirits

DH is doing well. He’s in good spirits. I had to share a gift that his cousin S* sent with his parents for him to have after surgery. They’re a bunch of multicolored signs mounted on popsicle sticks for him to hold up instead of talking: I’m [DH] and I’m …

Husband Health

Everybody gets a hospital visit!

Originally, DH and I were going to be doing the LP zoo run this morning. He was going to do the 5K, and I was going to do the 10K. I sprained my ankle earlier this week, so I planned to downgrade to the 5K “fun run/walk” instead of the …

It left me in stitches!

I woke up late today. It was nice to sleep so long, but I had a busy day planned. I put on a sports bra and one of my running skorts, and I grabbed some socks. When I got downstairs, I fed Pancake and settled into the couch to have …

Time Travel

As many of you have noticed, the blog has gone back in time to catch up on posts from our (very awesome, wanna go back NOW) Disney trip. As such, I skipped over quite a few events that would normally warrant a blog post. I don’t want to spend another …

Of fillings and fun

Yesterday, I had to go to the dentist for a filling. I had a cavity between two teeth. It was a very tiny cavity that showed up on my last set of X-rays (taken earlier this month). Fillings are theoretically not much fun, but my dentist is awesome as a …

Happy thoughts

A dear friend of mine (Ainsley/dreadpirateains) is getting surgery today. If you have spare happy thoughts to send toward FL, please send them. I’m sure all will be well, but happy thoughts can’t hurt. Edited to add at 2:10pmCT: Ainsley’s out of surgery. All went well. Recovery begins.
