The Foot - PT begins and I am WALKING!

So we are 13 weeks post injury and 9 weeks post surgery.



I have been walking in a brace and tennis shoes (ONLY) for a week.
Some days are better than other and I will be anxious to see what happens at physical therapy tomorrow. The Tennies are a fashion nightmare when it comes to work clothes but it is what it is.

My surgeon is a dream and he has done wonders for my floppy flipper. I cannot wait until I can do so much more and have a real foot back.



What I am most looking forward to is finally being able to get back into REAL shoes...HEELS! Three inch, FOUR inch... FIVE INCH HEELS!!!!
Oh my gosh everything is so cute and I have to wait.

Surgery here I come.....

One of these feet is doin' its own thing
One of these feet just ain't right....
Can ya' guess which foot is doin' its own thing
I hope you guessed the one on the right.


Shame on you Culver's

I don't think Culver's is the greatest thing on Earth as it is. In fact, I find it to be sub par and over priced. Culvers - Midvale I guess I cannot say I am totally shocked to see this little gem appear on a chicken sammy.
I mean come on. If you cannot serve fresh produce, which by the way right now Tomatoes are gorgeous right now and abundant, then apologize to your customers and leave it off. Totally Gross.

Da Boys

Having started making blankets for others, it was inevitable that the boys would want to have their very own blankets for themselves. Mind you, these boys probably have a million blankets in total already. Not good enough. They wanted one of "mommy's latest and greatest". Well they do happen to be the sweetest little boys on the face of the Earth so of course I obliged them. Evan's was actually very easy and I finished it off in under a week.

And for doing so, I heard, "you love Evan more". *Le Sigh*
Promptly, of course, I began to make Conner's. Well, not only was his more labor intensive, but my 40th birthday came and went, as did the 4th of July, so we were busy. I could not just sit and work on it non stop. The topper to that was he wanted this blue 'fuzzy' yarn on his that was a huge pain in the rear to work with. Last night, before he fell asleep, I finished.

Upon being bundled in it, albeit it on an 80 degree night, he said with as much love as he could muster, "I will be wrapped in your love every night and I will keep this until High School, AFTER High School even!" And in an instant, I had melted.

Being a mom is everything it is cracked up to be and more.

Project Linus

What is Project Linus?
Project Linus is a non-profit organization with a two-fold mission.

First, it is our mission to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer “blanketeers.”

Second, it is our mission to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children.

Here are my blankets going in this month
