Monday

Ahhh the weekend is over. Mike and Wyatt had a good trip and a nice visit. I never really did get to the point where I missed them, but I was happy to see them and am really glad their home. It must be cabin fever February. The Carlsons went to Big White for the week and got home on saturday and the Gerbers spent the weekend in Wyoming for a little R&R on one of lloyds trips. Sounds like fun.

We had a quiet weekend here. GK decided he must have rubbed some of his gout creme into his contacts hence the burning watering blindness in his eyes. Glad we got to the bottom of that. The gout is still hanging in, but seems to be getting better and all around it seems he's feeling pretty good. He goes to the Doc on Wednesday and will find out how his red cells are and with luck get out without another transfussion. His color and energy are both good and he has been eating well too. I went to the grocery store for them on Saturday and stocked the house with a variety of foods in hopes of encouraging more healthy snacking. If you know me at all you realize I really had to step out of my box to shop for "healthy" snacks, but I watch enough t.v to know whats good for you.

When I went to the big house Saturday morning I walked in to find Grammy sitting at the table waiting for me. She was wearing quite an attractive ensamble and to top it off a pair of GK's old glasses circa 1972. BIG square frames with a greenish yellow tint. I asked her where her glasses were and she looked at me as if to say... retard they are on MY face. She politely answered "right here" as she tapped her new eyewear. I asked if she could see alright with them and again she gave me the retard look and replied..."yes". So, for the last two days she has been wearing the latest in beavercreek high fassion eyewear and trust me, it's not easy discussing the latest political situations with her and take her seriously.
I hope we find her galsses soon. Lord only knows where they could be.

We are going shopping for Wyatt tonight. Time for some new shoes and he has already outgrown the pants we bought for him at the begining of the school year. Problem is, he grows out of the waist before the length so he ends up with pants that are four inches to long. Maybe I will get him some platform shoes.

Mike is feeling 100% better after seeing the chiropracter in Burlington. I guess he was really out of alinement. He was going to start seeing the chiropracter whenever he went to see Maddy, but I have it on good authority that he should be seen again this week, so I think we will set him up with GK's backcracker here in OC. You wouldn't think sitting all day would be hard on your back, but trust me, I know. I sat professionally for many years and it is VERY hard on your back. Add in the shaking and vibration fron the truck and you really have a mess. I think he might have to go in for Mikey maintenance on a regular basis.

I think thats all for now.

OHHHH! Today is weigh in Monday.
SEVEN POUNDS!!!
Now my last number ends with a TWO : )
