Happy Thanksgiving!!

We hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! We'll be celebrating with just the 4 of us today and then later this evening, our friends will be over and we'll prepare our 'plan of attack' for shopping tomorrow. Yes, you read that right, I'm shopping on Black Friday! I haven't done that in years but there are a few items that I just have to get...LOL

Oh also wanted to let everyone know that all Courtney's test results are in and everything is normal!! She might have just had a bug but she is all better now :o) Perky and hungry! CJ is still complaining about his ear so his recheck is Tuesday and we'll go from there!

Again, hope everyone enjoys their turkeys and don't get too full :o)

Update...

All of Courtney's bloodwork came back normal - including her thyroid!! We are just still waiting on the 2 cultures - urine and throat. Hopefully we'll find something out early next week. Also, she will be getting an appointment to see a pulmonary specialist for her lung capacity. We'll find out when next week too.

We are getting things done around here. Yesterday, Jason came home around 3 and we worked on the garage and then had dinner then...put the curio pieces in. This afternoon, we'll finish up the garage and he'll be able to park in it :o) I have to charge my camera batteries to take pictures so you'll have to check back later for those. I also worked on my half of the den yesterday and it's lookin' good. There is only 1 box in the whole room :o) I must say, Jason and I are glad we can take our time since we've already changed a few things...lol One day it'll all be done.

Well...it's off to Old Time Pottery this morning along with some Christmas shopping (at least I hope to). Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Success!

We finally got all of mail we've been missing!!! Our regular postman was on vacation and the person filling in for him - never delivered our mail and he isn't sure why. I actually got to meet him and he stated everything will go smoothly from that day on....we'll see...LOL

On other news...CJ still has an ear infection and we are now on our second round of antibiotics. We'll go back in 2 weeks and see how everything is - his left ear is still hurting him. He has to continue his Singular too. As for Courtney - we are still waiting to hear about the blood results (should be today). Her stomach has been bothering her like someone is sitting on her stomach or pushing it from the front or back. She went in yesterday afternoon - so we are now waiting for blood results (her sugar was 100 which is good I've been told), the culture from her throat swab, her urine (dropped that off this morning) and I think that's all the testing. She did get some med to coat her tummy to see if that will help. We are going on the start of the 3rd week like this plus added to all the tummy aches - she is extremely exhausted and has no energy. Please keep her in your thoughts.

Also, please keep a few others in your thoughts and prayers if you don't mind...Madisen (our neice) - she broke her foot last week but I've heard she is managing well on those crutches. She got her cast on yesterday and not sure what color she got. Her and Courtney have a lot in common lately :o) Also, my mom's best friend's husband is having surgery on Monday - please pray for them. It's nerve-wrecking and I pray everything goes smoothly and has an easy recovery.

That's it for now. I'll update about Courtney once we know what's going on.

Annoyed!!

Ok - we've been here for at our house for a while now. We have received mail addressed to our new address (just before Halloween) but now....OH NO we don't receive ANYTHING!! Can you tell I'm annoyed?

I know some have stated you sent things to us and if we haven't responded - it's because we haven't receive it. Not even forwarded mail. So guess where we'll be going before CJ's re-check in the morning - YEP - the Post Office.

Ok...just had to get that off my chest - it's been bothering me.

I'm off to finish some things in the den - we only have 4 boxes left in the room :o) but of course - we still have more in the garage. Our den is looking like a den now.

Pictures to share

I know I have been crazy busy but I haven't forgotten about my blog.

Courtney ended up having the start of strep and now CJ has an ear infection (found that out Friday). Jason took me to Fleming's for our anniversary dinner and it was wonderful!! We celebrated his birthday yesterday and I even got him an ice cream cake :o)
So here are some pictures....















Here's a picture of Courtney with her Fall Softball trophy. It was a nice little gift. She also was the receipent of the 'Team Spirit' award (made me cry) for being at every game and practice plus participating when she had a cast on. It is such a nice plaque that she can't wait to hang it up in her room :o)
