Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The colors are changing here in my little corner of the Fort. The first round of chicken pot pie soup was a success and fall is here with the lower temperatures at night. Summer is trying its best to hold on to the day and I can attest to this with my wonderful sunburn from yesterday's market! Before you ask, I did remember the sunscreen and the bright rays still managed to get through to my pale skin. What trouble did we stir up this week? Fossil Ridge celebrated Homecoming and Serra got to play in her first pep band gig as a high school student. I am extremely grateful to the new directors that...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! The air in my little corner of the Fort is getting that fall chill and I love it. The leaves aren't ready to change their colors just yet but you can feel the difference in the air. What did we do this past week? Serra and her adventures with her knee made it to a full week of school without any problems. There were a couple of evenings that she was a little sore from going too low in a squat to get down to her band locker but compared to what she was dealing with before it is much better. Hopefully life can get a bit more of a rhythm now. Amanda is getting...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! I think the only ones awake so far in my little corner of the Fort are myself and a puppy across the way that needs to go outside. The quiet is why I get up so early in the morning on a regular basis. Granted Serra doesn't make much noise herself but the world feels different when everyone is fast asleep. What did we do this week? Serra got the official check from the surgeon on Thursday that her knee is better. She has exercises to do but no scheduled PT. Activities as tolerated and the more she moves it the faster it will get better. She did a half squat yesterday with no issues...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Outside looks grey and overcast in my little corner today. Inside however my storm clouds from this last week have parted and it might be a bit weak but I can see the sun again. What did we do this week? Serra spent part of it resting with her knee. She went back to school on Thursday after spending Wednesday catching up the work she missed and the knee is doing great. Still a little bit of procedure pain but I think it solved the catching and locking that she was experiencing. Follow up on Thursday to double check everything and see if PT is needed. Amanda is through her second week of classes and...
Good Morning and Happy Sunday! Hello September! Fall is inching closer as the nights are staying cooler. I suppose in a few more weeks the fans will get turned off and tucked in the closet and windows will get closed at night. For now I'm going to embrace the cold as it does wonders for my sleep. Rationally I know that every week holds the same amount of time, 168 hours. Everyone has different ways to spend it based on work, home, kids and other responsibilities. However our own personal perception of the amount of time we have is relative to each person. That being said the last two weeks have felt like an eternity! Amanda is only just now...
