Christmas Gift - Dinner at the Yurt

Another free photo slideshow by Smilebox

Saturday March 6, 2010

Taxes done - breathing space to tidy up the email & play with some pictures. Then the women's spring luncheon at church with Colleen Down and others. Click here to see the pictures
Worked some more at the computer till Jeremy picked me up and we went to Ogden to the Hostler's Model Train Show - super fun even if trains aren't your passion because the scenes portrayed show great artistry in miniaturization, and story telling and humor. Also they have mineral, antique car, and gun collections to see if you have time. We met up with Reddigs there who had run Jack's train on the Z scale layout and toured a lot of the building. It's always fun to get together with the family.
Home and relaxed watching a movie.

Jeremy is recovering

Surgery went well - Jack was there with him, and had him home again about 4 p.m.. Next day was the follow-up doctor's appointment and then physical therapy right after!!! Makes me cringe to even think about it! But the report is that the swelling went down about an inch in the circumference measurement, and that the pain was really reduced so I guess it was a good thing. He is dutifully doing the prescribed exercises. He's limping around on it now, and daily progress relative to pain is reported. The next PT session the report was that things are going well.
Praise God.

Jer's Blow-Out

Jeremy had a couple of his "rat-pack" friends here to ski - room at the Inn at Solitude, and a four day weekend to ski. Only a few runs into the event, Jeremy had a freak fall, catching an edge on the way to get on the lift. He tore his left knee ACL.
Today, after the guys left on a plane, Jer had his MRI today. His doctor really impressed us by phoning Jer tonight with the results - the good news - cartilage not damaged, but bone bruised, and ACL torn and twisted. He meets with the Dr. on Friday to schedule surgery.

New Year - New Look

I had had my hair cut last summer to remove the damaged ends that were splitting faster than it was growing out. First time since I left High School. Now it had grown out to shoulder length and was driving me crazy. So I had it cut again. I was pleased with the results and folks have been quite complimentary.

Meanwhile, after losing his job, Jack has been letting his hair and beard grow. He was perfect for the Santa picture this year! However, with an interview coming up, he felt it was wise to remove it, so an hour later today there was a major transformation. The barber didn't shave him, but had cruised across the mustache before he could stop her, so maybe the mustache will go at this point too. We'll see where it is by next Wednesday evening.

Article from Sunday's Salt Lake Tribune about my company - fairly short but it sums up what we do pretty well.
