UPDATE
Ok. I’ve had folks checking up on me
and asking for updates… so here it is.
Thank you for your concern. It is appreciated. =:]
Life has been busy recently.
On the good end… my amazing daughter,
Bear…
Who took her final test for nursing
school on the afternoon of Aug.6th
And gave me my newest granddaughter
in the early hours of
Aug. 7th…
And then…
Graduated from nursing school on Aug
24th!
The Bear
I am so very proud of Bear.
To top it off, her doctor offered her
a job in his clinic…
After taking some baby time.
Now that’s the way to work it!
Here are some pics of the event...
Avery Rebecca
Proud big brother.
Turkey, G'pa Fuzzy and Avery
(The cigar is out! I swear it !)
Turkey lost his tooth in the parking lot.
Olivia dancing... she knows how to celebrate!
Squeaky was living with us and
helping out with Randy.
But he was offered a job with Xerox…
As one of the tech people for their
line of smart phone products.
And has moved north again to take
advantage of that.
I’m pretty proud of him too.
That brings us to Randy and myself.
We took a trip up to DPH to watch the
Bear graduate
And meet Avery Rebecca.
I fell deeply in love with her, sigh.
Spending time with her proud big
brother was fun too.
So much happiness there that it was
hard to come home.
But home we came.
Roxy was crazy happy to see us.
You’d think that we had been gone for
a week
Instead of over night.
I had a last “day off” of doing
laundry,
Making lunches for myself and Randy
for the week.
I snore.
Very loudly, I am told.
So we have opted to use separate bedrooms
for sleeping…
Now that Squeaky is gone and one
opened up.
I never thought that I would like
that arrangement.
But its a lot like when I was a kid
and finally got my own room…
I do like the freedom of sleeping
however I like…
Including sprawled out kitty-corner
if I wish.
I can have the air conditioner or fan
on as long as I like and not have to
Worry about Randy getting grumpy
about being cold.
I love to be cold when I sleep.
I can watch whatever show I want and
not have to consult
The man who doesn’t like most of my
shows.
So that was a nice surprise.
Otherwise…
We wait.
I am waiting to be old enough to
retire.
So that I can be home to help the
man.
We are still waiting for disability
to be determined.
It should be a “Duh” sort of
decision.
His doctors all say he cannot work,
Cannot drive.
So we wait.
I’d much rather be proactive about
it.
Waiting is no fun.
But I am good at it.
=:]
Your daughter has been a busy gurl....and I congratulate her on the birth of Avery Rebecca (what a beautiful name...and a beauuuutiful baby!)
ReplyDeleteAnd...the final test of nursing school and the job! Blessings have been showered on her and her sweet family. Congratulations!!!
Love,
Jackie
Yes they have. Thank you. I will pass that on to her.

ReplyDeleteRoxy is a real snorter of a snorer. We sort of harmonize or at least perform a noisy duet.

DeleteSorry to hear about all of the waiting but definitely glad to hear all of the good news. Hang in there and hopefully things will be resolved soon for you and Randy. Take care.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well and have a good weekend.
ReplyDeletewell congrats to bear and welcome to avery! that's exciting news all the way around.
ReplyDeleteglad things seem to be going well and i hope the disability comes through sooner rather than later.
Well, sounds like there's a lot to be grateful for. Things could be better, but likely that's always the case. Glad you are doing well and NOT smoking!!!
ReplyDeleteGo Ducks!!! Have a good weekend, silly rabbit.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Bear! She really squeaked that final exam in under the wire!
ReplyDeleteHi ya silly rabbit!!
ReplyDeleteWow, Bear has been so busy! Congrats to all of you on that beautiful new family member :) Congrats to Squeaky, too, on the new career opportunity.
ReplyDeleteWaiting is so, so hard. I know that things like permanent disability claims can drag on and on, but it WILL get settled. And glad to hear you are enjoying your own little den :)
Aloha.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to The Bear, and shame on me for not showing up before this to say that.
ReplyDeleteAnd shame on me for hitting "enter" before I had finished writing (duh). I hope all works out for you and yours, and I'm saying a prayer on your behalf.
ReplyDeleteHow's the sleeping?
ReplyDeleteGo Ducks!!
ReplyDeleteThinking of you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, that was a really cool read
