#11~snausage fingers!

Surgery #1 done! My left hand and forearm are encased in a big honkin' cast...sadly, I cannot do housework!! Altho I did a couple of things yesterday and now have swollen sausage fingers to show for it! Lesson learned! It's tough to do things for yourself~like, get dressed~with only one hand. My love affair with fleece is proving handy!

Any news in the wedding department, you ask?? Why, no! But it's OK~between this surgery and another mid-April, and a big birthday bash for my Mom in a couple of weeks, there's enough on my plate! Am pondering some things tho, that I will get into on another day...

# 10~it's baaaack.....

that dreadful chest/head cold thing that's going around. it's only a few weeks since the new years bout left! so i'm spending today just like yesterday~lounging in bed, catching up on my blog reading. the boy was so sweet yesterday and went to the drugstore to pick up my prescription, kleenex and a magazine. then he made dinner~he is a pretty good cook and let's face it~everything tastes better if someone else makes it. think it's time for some juice and sinutab and a nap~all this web-surfing has zapped my energy...

#9~a mouse in the house!

My daughter and I had a wonderful girl's day Saturday! We spent the afternoon at the ballet~Carmen~it was wonderful! Then wandered around town abit, played at the NARS counter and ended up at a fancy-shmancy hotel restaurant for dinner. I was menu deciding when something caught the corner of my eye~it was a mouse!!! A very tiny grey mouse~kind of cute actually! I feel bad for it, since it's days are probably numbered, but the restaurant comped us 2 desserts for the wildlife sighting...

Meanwhile, the boy was cuttting melamine for the new kitchen cupboards. It will be the best day EVER when we are back to a fully functioning kitchen! Not to be eating at the coffee table! To have friends over for dinner! I'm starting to feel like there's light at the end of the renovation tunnel, and I can't wait!
