Hello! I am here! After a crazy spring/start of summer and a minor sign in problem with something they changed on this site, I have returned. Lemme see if I can get everyone up to speed...
Aubrey has turned 2, Evan has finished school and gymnastics for the year, I had my gallbladder removed (finally!), Chuck is working on our backyard to get it more kid friendly, the dog is still crazy, Evan made a trip to the ER for a piece of metal in his eye, Aubrey flung herself from her crib, we opened the cottage for the summer, and we all still like each other. How was that for a quick summary?
Upcoming plans: summer gymnastics for Evan, a scrapbooking night for me, a family vacation that will be with my online friends, the 4th of July. Fun times!
Overall, the biggest news would be on my own health front. I had my gallbladder out the first week of May. I was quite disenchanted by the whole thing for the first 4 days, but for the week after that, things got better. I now feel like a new person! I am off the daily medication that I was taking for pain and haven't yet had a puking day. (Except on surgery day...general anesthesia did not agree with me!) I now have the energy to play with the kids, take walks, clean the house and do a lot of things I haven't done in a while. I am so very thankful to my specialist who fought tooth and nail for this surgery to happen. He went to bat for me numerous times and it looks like he was right! Turns out that the surgeon found a kink in one of the bile ducts and he has only seen that one other time and he looks as if he has been on the Earth for a while now. Hee Hee! I still have some pounds to put back on, but I am very happy with the results thus far.
And now I must go to bed, but I will be a better blogger. Really. I mean it this time!
