Day 101

Yeah, we made it. Yesterday was Jim's 100 birthday. The mask is off. We still have to have appointments at LDS to make sure everything looks good but we are doing great. We all got that lovely virus that was going around, including Jim, which was a little scary. Quick to get it, and a little slow to shake it, but made it through.

Last week, Brendan broke his arm long boarding. We had long decided that he could not rollerblade anymore because he always hurts himself. So, what did he do, got on a long board for the first time. Went down a hill fine, came to a flat surface, pushed off and came down. Thus, the broken arm. Brendan says as I am riding this, that I should come up with a much better story to tell how he did it.

On comments, there was a request as to how I am doing. Remarkably well. Our life is crazy busy, but it is pretty much normal now, so normal is good. (Normal with sickness and broken arms, but normal for us.) Sarah still is playing the violin and practicing very hard. Spencer is taking guitar lessons and loves it. Brendan is working, despite the arm and Nathan just got a new bunny named Butterscotch. He loves it. I would never have given in to bunny with the others, but Nathan is so tender hearted and loves animals so much. Our neighbors were selling them and Nathan already had it named and visited it everyday. Whenever the neighbor would have someone come look at the rabbits, she would have Nathan hide Butterscotch, because she could not bare to see him sad. Needless, to say, Jim and I could not see him sad either.

I am still working on OB. I have gone to days now. I never thought I would like day shift, but I really do. I work just two days a week.

Jim and I are going to Park City this weekend for a military conference. It will be nice to get away. Our nephew Allen is coming here to play with the kids. So, it ought to be a good weekend for all.

So, now that we are past the 100 days, this is no longer a Cancer Blog (Yea!) but a blog tell about our family. Thanks so much for your interest.
