What the heck have I been doing??!!

I'M BACK...

Sorry it has been so long since my last post. Anyone who has talked with me in the last couple of months knows I have just a few things going on around this houshold...HAHAHA!!! Tony is continuing his physical therapy and seeing a occupational doctor for his injury. This week marks 6 months since the accident. I feel really bad for the guy, he is pain pretty much the entire day and night. The intensity of the pain varies with his daily activities. We go to the pain clinic on Monday (1st day of our vacation). What a way to start our vacation out, huh? We are not going anywhere simply because he goes to physical therapy everyday. With gas prices, I think alot of people will have the same idea.




We are also in midst of re-renovating our basement. Yes...it flooded again, June 3rd. YEA! That was total sarcasm, FYI. We are spending another chunk of change (after the generator expense) and actually waterproofing our basement. This is where guys will come into your home and basically jackhammer out 8-10 inches away from all exterior walls to install drainage pipes leading to our sump. Oh yeah...and adding another sump hole in Taylor's new room (closet area). I hope you enjoy my picture of my stained 7 month old carpet that had to be ripped out and replaced after having been installed in fall of 2007 after the 1st flood we had. It made me sick!!


On a brighter note...softball is DONE for the season!!! Kaylee made it to the second game of tournaments, single elimination, before losing. She got a metal, so she was sitisfied. :) Taylor, however, went all of the way thru tournaments being undefeated and came out winning the championship!! What a thrill!! If you remember she won the chamionship in 2006 (undefeated the whole season and tournaments), 2007 she came in runner-up to the team she beat out for the championship this year. Pretty cool!

To all I have talked to about the issues surrounding my life right now, you will know that I like to ask the question, "what next". Well...this morning I ran into the bathroom door with my toe, busted the nail down the center and peeled it back, just enough for it to stay attached along the side and also managed to cut the top of my toe. Yeah...it bled and bled. I now "hobble" around work. which is great for my back that has been hurting since the flood. Dare I ask the question again??? I think not...

On another brighter note...I AM GOING TO BE AN AUNT AGAIN!!!! YEA!!!! I can't begin to tell you how excited I am for Mike and Mara. I put the pictures of what they sent me to tell me they were pregnant on my filing cabinet at work. I can't wait to add more!! I will be spoiling their kid just as I do with Jackson.
I will try to make my entries a little shorter next time. I hope to keep this up a little better...
