Cookies and Company

I'm sorry that I haven't been writing much lately. Since Ryan can't do a whole lot else, I've been letting him have a lot of extra time on the computer. Then when I've finally gotten on, I've been trying to catch up in reading your blogs and Facebook.

I've also been preparing and anticipating a friend coming to visit this Saturday. She's flying down from PA and I haven't seen her for over 2 years. We'll have a little over 3 days together and I can't wait!

This was a surprise that we received today:

Ryan's Gram Karen had it sent to him. We never knew they made such things! He was very excited - I mean it's FOOD! SWEETS!

His youth leader called a little bit ago and said all of the kids were really missing him and they wanted to put together a basket of some favorite things for him. So he has another surprise coming soon.

Tomorrow morning we have to be at the surgeon's office at 8:15 to have his foot checked out and possibly have the pins removed. He has another 2-4 weeks before he can put any weight on his foot, but we could probably start going out more after tomorrow since he won't need to keep it elevated as much.

I have a neuroma on my left foot that is really painful and is hurting to walk right now.

My mom was down this way getting her hair done today, so she came over afterwards, bringing lunch from Zaxby's for all of us. While we visited, I baked cookies (I started them before the delivery of the others!) and she washed some of my windows and did some of my dusting and dishes! I guess she feels guilty if she sits down and relaxes.

Okay, your comments will be welcome now! Since I'm inside so much I get rather bored and lonely!
