Christmas Countdown - 2013

[Holiday]

Happy Milestone Day MMC!!!!!!! It's a beautiful day here with the high only getting to the mid 60's. I finally broke down and went to the ER this morning to get my foot checked. Mainly because I was threatened within an inch of my life by Sugar and Snowflake if I didn't go. LOL!!!! I was pretty sure that I knew what was wrong already but the doctor confirmed it. I have a stress fracture of one of the metatarsal bones. So for the next 4 to 6 weeks I get to wear some fancy new footwear and use Crutches. Which I hate and probably won't use. I'll just use a cane to keep some of the weight off of it. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH MAN!!!! I hope it heals quickly!!!!!

I fear this time of year as we are so close, and time flies so quickly that it is here and gone in a heartbeat! If I could work my will, I'd slow time to half the normal speed from November 13th to Jan 1...Alas, times does what time does...it flies...Happy milestone none-the-less with a special thanks to my friend Crown for their able countdown updates all year long, they have brightened more than a few dark days for me this year...and it has been a REALLY hard year...

I agreee, time goes so fast now.
I continue to pray for you especially that next year will be much better.

Good afternoon! TGIF! ¡Ù
Im sitting here reading your posts. Don't have time to answer all!
But sending, hugs, thoughts and prayers all over the world in my mind! =)

Last week I wrote about my daughter who are recently diagnosed
with childhood arthritis/juvenile arthritis...
She did an MRI and x-ray last week, and the result came with bad news...

It shows that she have arthritis and that her temporomandibular joint (?)
are deformed and flat... She have to start on medizine asap.
And she have swollen lymph nodes on her throat and have to do an ultrasound next week.
More blood tests. And they want an x-ray of her lungs....
But there is more, and we will know more after talking to the doctor (next week)
And Im so worried!!!! ..... Please pray for her? ¢¾

Here it's Autumn vacation (all next week)
And we are starting this weekend with homemade pizza!

I hope you will have a great weekend! Thank you for reading ¢¾

Sending lots of thoughts & prayers & hugs your way! Waiting is so hard! I'm so sorry you are going through such a rough time!

you sound just like me! I will not wear that uncomfortable brace anymore and get around just fine with a cane. Still have not made a follow up appointment with my doctor. Hate going. My knee still gives me a bit of trouble occasionally, but is getting better everyday.
Hope you heal quickly!

Hey gang! Been a few days since I've been here last...but we had a busy few days....

We had to go back to the dr. on Wednesday for the baby....a little checkup...nothing major....and then Thursday I had ballgame duty...when I got home...my wife was in tears and our oldest dog was terribly sick....we had to take him to the vet and have him put down. It's ok. I don't know if many of you remember, but it's been two years since he was diagnosed with congestive heart failure...and that's quite a long time to stay alive with that. He was 11...

He was there when I coached my first game, he was there when I coached my last. He was there when we met Dr. Wifey...and he was there when I proposed. He was there when we found out we were going to have a baby...and he was there when we brought her home. It was almost like he was just waiting to see her get here....to know she was ok and that we were going to be ok. I hated having to make that decision, but that is part of my job as his companion....to make the difficult decisions that will keep him comfortable. It was peaceful, we got to say goodbye....and Dr. Wifey kissed him as he went to Rainbow Bridge.

It has been a tough few days, but my brother and his wife came down to meet the baby....so that has kept us busy. Little girl is growing like a weed...and between chaning diapers, feeding, and holding...I've been swamped....but I sure do love it.

Have a great day! I will see yall later today!

So sorry to hear about your dog Coach!! :sad: Sounds like he had a great life with you!!

Thanks!!! It's going to be a miracle if I wear this boot for 4 weeks. It's been a couple of hours and I'm already wanting to take it off.


Glad your knee is getting better!!!

got to the pharmacy and got my meds...now we are home and I´ll be cooking dinner in a minute.

watching Home Improvement right now and then Friends......to my delight....Kandice has inherited my love for sitcoms.....she loves friends....she doesn´t really get all the jokes...but she likes the gestures of Chandler and the funny things that Phoebe says...and she finds Rachael and Monica incredibly beautiful

come when you can!
We do not have a loop here, just horse shoes that remain open at one end. A loop is a closed group and we always want to stay open and inviting to others, anyway that is what our pastor told us yesterday!

Brightening dark days and making bright days even brighter -- that's the idea.
I'm always gratified to learn any member is happier because of our little thread.
Gives me a good reason to keep on as the years roll by!

Please keep on Crown!!! It is as important in our house as the annual airing of Rudolph, or the cooking of the turkey...Valuable beyond assessment, at least for me!!!:notice:
