Craziness in a Word

The online Webster Dictionary defines crazy as distracted with desire or excitement or passionately preoccupied. There were more but these two work for my purposes.

It started Valentine's weekend with us receiving some tax refund money. We spend the day in beautiful Savannah buying Jamie shoes, clothes and other stuff, including my new Nike+ with the receiver so I can measure my walking. I have been using it and it is a great tool in aiding my walking. We ate at my favorite restaurant, Cracker Barrel and directly from there we went to Ludowici. My grandfather and my dad and mom were here to visit. We spent the entire weekend hanging out with them. I especially enjoyed Jamie spending time with his great-grandpa. On Tuesday, we went back for a final spend off party, a good old-fashion oyster Roast. Mmm!! It was sad to go as I loved hanging out with everyone and it was a blast.

Here are some pictures of the boys playing in the yard and a few of them in those bushes...

I wanted to share some pictures of the oyster roast. I took excessive amount of pictures but I shared my favorites. Oh and look for my favorite. It is my dad and grandpa together. I am going to frame it of my mantle.

On Wednesday, I had dinner with David and Barb at Applebee's and had a wonderful time. My left wrist was hurting but I tried to ignore it. To make a long story short, I ended up in the ER for 6 hours with no idea what was wrong...just a could-be broken diagnosis. I went for my records and discovered I have NOT broken my wrist! It is related to when I broke my wrist in Japan. I spend the entire weekend with moderate pain, a 7 on the pain scale. lol I saw my personal doctor on Monday and was a referral was put in for me to see a specialist. Good news is it is the same practice Jamie goes o for his legs, bad news I still don't know when my appointment is. More interesting news, I am still taking my UOP classes and I refused aid i.e. a break in my school schedule to heal. Not doing that as I received my schedule and was sadden to discovered I had misunderstood them and it won't be until NEXT November (a.k.a. 2010) before I finish.

Tuesday, Pat received a phone call from his parents. They were coming up on Thursday to close on their home. It finally SOLD!!! They asked if they could see Jamie and we agreed. We went further and invited to take them out. It went better than I could imagine. I still was pretty much ignored but they bought Jamie a little tractor, which he played with at the table while we waited for dinner to arrive. They followed us home and they had a bubble blowing lawn mower for him. I received flowers too. It was very nice of them to do this. They stayed for about a hour and left after trying out our Wii (will post about it later) and loading up on some coffee. It was great for Jamie to visit and he did wonderful, Jamie kissed Martha as they were leaving. I hope this is a step forward in mending our family.

So today is Friday and hopefully the end of a very CRAZY two weeks...
