Under the Knife Again. . .

David and I have surgery dates scheduled. I am getting my knee replacement on June 5th. It will mean a 3-5 day hospital stay. David is having both jaws cut and repositioned on July 10th. He will be in the hospital for 1-2 days. Luckily, they don't wire the jaw shut anymore, just use rubberbands to hold it stable. He will be eating mashed potato consistency food for about 6 weeks though. Better invest in a heavy duty blender! Your prayers for a speedy recovery for both of us are greatly appreciated.

Mother's Day and more. . .


I was blessed to have a nice Mother's Day. We met up with my mom & Ted, Larry & Darla, Christy & Liam (Deron had to work), at the Kopper Kettle Kafe for a delicious breakfast buffet. Afterwards, Britt and I went out to Ontario Mills and did a little shopping. I got 2 new pairs of sneakers to pamper my feet at the New Balance factory outlet store. When my foot and knee cried out for mercy, we had to call it quits.
David had his prom this weekend. They went up to the top of the mountain on the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. He had a great time and looked awesome in his tux.
This week I visit the orthopaedic doc to get my surgery date for the knee replacement--can't be soon enough! I hate not being able to shop as long as I want to.
