Bandage

11.23.12

Today we took Brian's bandage off and he finally got a shower. The incisions look pretty small. I'm thankful everything seems to be going well as far as the shoulder is concerned. Definitely having some other complications but just so grateful it's not related to the shoulder!

Kisses

Here is my first batch of holiday cookies for the year - peanut butter kiss cookies. They are Brian's favorite so of course I made these first!

Let The Baking Begin!

11.21.12

Every year I bake lots of goodies to give out to neighbors, coworkers, friends and family. Last year I totally slacked. This year I am making sure that doesn't happen! Starting this evening I am going to get a head start on some holiday treats. Some items on the list include: snickerdoodles, M&M cookies, peanut butter kiss cookies and chai butter cookies. That's the first serious batch. 

Bday Dinner

11.20.12

Today's my hunny's birthday! We already did our celebrating but I still wanted to make the day special. He got a gift along with cards made by my students. For dinner I picked up a burger and shake and a big ass cookie, too.

Post-Op

11.19.12

Brian had his long-anticipated shoulder operation today. I can't tell you how grateful I was when I finally got to see him. He went in about 830AM and I didn't see him again until 12. It was the longest 3.5 hours of my LIFE! I'm thankful for insurance, modern medicine and medical capabilities!

Tree Up

11.18.12

We put up our big tree in the living room this evening. This is our fourth year with this tree and I still really dig it!

Santa's Little Helper

We are getting our Christmas decorations put up a tad early this year since Brian is having surgery Monday and may not be in the mood to help next week. We put up the small tree in our bedroom tonight and Huxley helped us test the lights.
