HI folks...Updates, etc
:hi:

Let's see...

Mom: Got the permanent ventilator on Wednesday. I haven't seen her since before that, but my brother says she looks a lot better than before. I'm heading out there with my Sister this afternoon.

Me: All signs point to yes regarding me being able to graduate next month. Have a little work to do to make that happen, but it's do-able.

Moved my old bed back to my parents' house last night, so I have somewhere to sleep, as well as a lot of my clothes, books, my yarn and knitting stuff. I'm here for the duration. I was planning on moving back for the summer anyway, so I'm just a little early.

Took DS1's advice and got a bunch of sleep last night. The sun is shining, it's a beautiful day, so I'm going to work in the yard/garden until my Sister picks me up. Gonna take my Husky out to garden with me. :)

So that's about it. I'm ok. Almost good, all things considered. :hi:

1. Oh, yay!
Edited on Fri Apr-10-09 09:45 AM by SallyMander

Sounds like things are looking up on all fronts! I am so glad to hear that your mom seems better, and I hope she's comfortable. And HOORAY on your graduation! That is wonderful news sweets! And you had better feel DAMN PROUD of yourself for this accomplishment -- it is always a big deal, but even bigger when dealing with all the other issues that you've had to face.

So... :toast: to you! :D :loveya:

On a completely unrelated note... Iza and I are doing some spring cleaning, and I found a big bag of yarn/needles from when I was messing around with knitting. Never really "took," though -- I can only knit things that are rectangular. ;-) If you'd have any use for this stuff, PM me your address and I'll send it along!

:hug:

Edit for typo :dunce:

9. Good, good, good, good, good!
Things sound stable and positive, and you sound GREAT!!!

Yes, in the garden, in the sunshine, yes to all that.

Hang in there, honey, and just keep taking good care of yourself.

10. Good to hear
and have fun with the husky. Do you plan to have him excavate holes for planting stuff? Huskies are really good at that.

12. Haha! It's she, but
no. She's happily sleeping the day away in the sun. :)

We already have numerous husky holes in the backyard. :rofl:

11. That's terrific!
I'm so glad that things are going in the right direction for you. You've been through a lot. I don't know how you handle it all, but I'm very impressed. You have such strength and tenacity.

Have a wonderful day in the garden. I miss mine.
