Major Mom Happy Veteran’s Day friends! I am just getting this in under the wire for my daily post, trying to keep with my NaBloPoMo challenge! Dave Update: First of all, it got pretty tough for us last night with Dave’s back. He started getting some intense muscle spasms that weren’t resolving with the medications he had … Read more
It’s worth discussing. And since I have to come up with 30 days worth of material for this month’s NaBloPoMo, this presented itself at an opportune time. The web world is all aflutter with the Penn State Athletics Sex Scandal. Or whatever you want to call it. This makes me ashamed for all the times … Read more
Dave Update: Yesterday and this morning Dave was quite sore. He called it “new pain”, a lot of which was bone pain in his back, where the surgeon had to drill through his vertebrae. He had to increase his muscle relaxers and pain medication a little from what he was down to over the weekend, … Read more
Dave Update: Yesterday Dave got the 5 little staples out of his back. That helped him to lie on his back more easily. On the way home from the doctor’s appointment, he made a brief visit to the squadron to say hello. I promise, he didn’t do any work! He only logged on to his … Read more
Good Monday morning to you! Today is Dave’s one-week check up for his back procedure…most of what we’re going for is to get those staples above removed. That entire cut is about an inch long and is healing very nicely. But those staples are driving Dave mad and he can’t wait to get them out. … Read more
Dave Update: With the kids at home to help Dave (most of the help he needs now is picking up stuff that he’s dropped, by the way), I was able to go back out to the weekend crop on Saturday and take advantage of a few more hours of making pages. Dave had a really … Read more
Dave Update: Friday was a pretty good day for him. He was able to rest very comfortably, and after the kids came home from school he walked up and down our block — the kids walked the dog. With the back brace he’s keeping very nice posture while he back heals… He’s looking great, and … Read more
Today I added my name…my blog…to the rolls of the National Blog Post Month list, brought to you by BlogHer.com. Feel free to join in… I have a lot of talk about this month, including updates on Dave’s post-surgery recovery, which should make this easy to do. Even if I just take an iPhone picture … Read more
Before I get into the main topic of this post, first let me say that this was a much much better day for Dave’s recovery. He woke up in a good mood, and seemed to do well while I was briefly at a Hurlburt Spouses’ Club board meeting during mid-morning. He even took a couple … Read more
Enjoy some pictures I took of the spectacular fall colors at Great Smoky Mountains National Park last week. I was in the area training for my AF Reserve job. These are too pretty not to share with the world! You’ll notice that I’m in my winter coat (it was in the low 50s) for some … Read more
