Mom's are the BEST ...
So sorry that it has been so long .. I've been very busy .. this weekend while Ryan was fishing, Mom came over and helped me accomplish some tasks that have been driving me crazy .. first she sat me on my bed and basically dumped my whole closet on the floor ... I sat there like the princess that I am .. yes I will keep that .. give that old thing away ... and then there was a lot of ... that doesn't fit anymore .. too fat! The second thing that Mom helped me with was cleaning my office/spare room .... we took 7 garbage bags full of shredded paper to the dump .. man does it feel good to be organized again .. I think having a baby and then building a house might have something to do with my organizatinal skills .. now I just have to stay on top of things .. thanks Mommy .. as for Ryan and his fish ... WHAT FISH .. he got skunked .. no fish for him .. but like my Dad says .. catching a fish is just a bonus on that trip .. it's just about hanging out with the boys!
I went to the doc yesterday .. he thinks that I should stay on the crutches for another 4 weeks so that my muscles can strengthen and keep the ol' hip in place .. things are better on the crutches .. I think because the pain isn't as bad ... I still HATE .. HATE .. having to depend on people to do things for me .. poor Mom has to basically do everything I need everyday until Ryan comes home from work .. which can range from 4:30 to 6:30pm ... but Dad says that when you have kids you have to support them and do everything for them until you can't anymore .. that's what having kids is all about .. ??? I just pray that I will be as great as a parent to "L" as my parents have been to me ..
Did some shopping in PG while waiting for the doc appointment .. I've been buying stuff for my yard as things go on sale .. I just bought a bunch of solar lights .. they will look so nice next year when we have tons of grass and trees .. speaking of trees we plan to go get these this weekend if the weather hold outs .. Ryan has been busy putting landscaping ties in to seperate the driveway from the lawn .. and then the trees from the lawn .. it's so exciting to have a yard .. living in the dirt is just sooooo ugly!

Hugs to you! And I'm not just saying that so you'll send your clothing castoffs my way like when we were kids! Glad you got to do some purging...it always feels good to get things OUT of the house instead of IN. Another 4 weeks on cruches sucks but it's much better than another sugery! I know you hate depending on people, but parents don't count. Your dad is a smart man and I agree with him wholeheartedly. You don't think if I lived closer that I wouldn't be up there to help out? Take the Princess treatment while you can cuz it'll be back to laundry mountains and toilet brushes in no time!
I remember telling Matt once that if I could choose somebody to be my Mother-In-Law, I would have chose your mom. She is awesome. Hang in there on the cruches!
Very best site. Keep working. Will return in the near future.
