Update on me: Am now cleaning. This is a good sign. Unless I go too far with the cleaning and am scrubbing things with toothbrushes at 4AM.

Update on mom: We may be neck and neck in the hardware division. However, she has no coral in her leg, so I get some bonus points. They tried to put her cast on yesterday, but she couldn’t bend her ankle enough. I hope that they start PT early- I was doing PT for at least a month before I could put any weight on my leg. I’m a bit worried- she doesn’t sound well on the phone. She’s having trouble getting around, and dad went out and got her a wheelchair. I found the wheelchair great for going out, but didn’t use it in the house except for when I was doing laundry. Also, don’t let Goose drive. He will run your leg into things.

I had my annual review today. I was dreading it. I hate them. It went very well, much better than I expected. So that was good news. With a decent raise to boot!

Orion got tired of me rolling away from him this morning, so he decided to sleep on me. Orion is sleeping in his room tonight.

I leave tomorrow for VA. I’ll be there until Tuesday. TRgirl and Randy are coming out to Culpeper on Saturday. Peg and I will go to church at some point (not sure when yet) and Peg will remind me that I cannot take communion. Apparently she has this fear that I am going to rush Father Leo and demand the sacrament.

I still have 2 presents to buy. I’ll be doing that tomorrow morning.
