Catching Up!

I am finally better. I had something that made it hard for me to talk and I just coughed all the time. I didn't really feel bad except for not sleeping because of all the coughing. I got a steroid shot to help with that but not sure it made much of a difference. Anyway, lots has happened. So a quick summary.

Logan has been to the ENT several times because he may have to have his tonsils and adenoids taken out. The doctor took another culture and even though the infection keeps coming back it looks we are going to wait at least until the summer. He doesn't have any of the other problems that usually come with this like sleep apnea, snoring, fever etc. So we are in a holding pattern for now. I am really glad about that.

Charles has been working hard. His boss has asked him to start working 50 hours a week so I am back to cooking all the meals. We usually split it. But this will work out okay too. He will just get to do more dishes!

A great nurse that I used to work with died last week from complications related to his cancer. I went to his funeral this past weekend with other past coworkers. He was also a Pentecostal preacher so it was quite a crowd! He will be missed dearly. I just called to check on his wife and the answering machine picked up with his voice on the recording. Now I am really sad. He was only 10 years older than me.

We started some seeds a few weeks ago and now I am ready to put them in some bigger pots until they are ready to transplant. It looks like spring is already here though! Lots of things around here are already blooming. I am just afraid that we are still in for some cold weather and it will kill everything off!

We sprang a surprize on my Dad for his 70th birthday. We are going to meet him this summer on vacation in Vermont. He was very surpised! We had to explain it all to him though - he didn't get the hints we gave.

Well that is a quick update. Hopefully I will get a few pictures up soon.

Happy to hear you are feeling a lot better. Sounds like bad weeks were had all around. Must be the stars. I'm ordering my seeds this week and then starting the first week of March. My first time, so should be interesting. Here's to a great weekend =)
