even the birds were chirping

It's so wild.



To wake up on the right side of the bed!



For a change.



I'm talking Toby. Silly! I've been in a funk so long now I think it's here for the winter. But Toby...he slept in late. Which seems to agree with him. As he's been quite charming and eager to help so far today.



It's also wild how warm freezing can feel. After a week of ungodly below zero degrees!



And snow. Way too much snow.



Callie obediently pooped in the white. Again. That makes at least 4 since yesterday! Although sadly...it would seem we're now trading poos outside for pees in. But I'm still claiming victory.



And as I stood outside. Coat unzipped. Cause frostbite is now hours away rather than minutes. Squinting in the sunny snow glare. Cheering wildly on the inside as the puppy squatted. Listening to the birdies (who have yet to find our Christmas bird feeder! Which makes sense. The smart ones already migrated to Disney, right?) chirping like Spring is in the air.


I stood there soaking up the rays.



And thinking.



I hope this happy start sticks. And bodes good things for my 1/2 away meeting!

I've realized that my kids are in better moods when they get extra sleep too. I'm sure they were cranky this morning though after having over a week off from school and now having to get going again. Oh well, that was hubby's problem...hahaha

I wish we had as much snow as you guys do. I was looking at the pics you posted at home the other day and hubby asked where you were and was exclaiming how he is sooo happy that we didn't get that much snow....I just glared at him. *grin*

Really hope this happy start sticks :)

(and your snow doesn't....though we'd fancy a decent amount rather than the sprinkling we've had so far!)

Things going very well with H here so far, (no spasms, yey!) signs of development & lots of happiness :)

You have chirping birds in RI? I think all the ones in NY are frozen in their nests!

I cried when I got the news

I felt like such a heel not going with Trevy for his first post hemi EEG. Yeeeeeees...Jonathan went with him. Yeeeeeees...he's just as good as me. But still! He's my baby! I was instead sitting on floor 6 east waiting for Neurology to get their boots here and help me sort out this medicine mess! Seriously it's like a bad joke...how many Neurologists does it take to write a bloody script? And fax prior authorizations? Cause Trevy's been back for hours now. And I'm STILL waiting! Anyway... Jonathan had just stepped out to meet the pizza delivery guy when Dr. EEG made his rounds. Of course I asked immediately if he had read the EEG. Of course he had. That's why he was there afterall. And I cried when he told me... that for the first time in almost two years. For the first time since this whole crazy mess began. my baby's EEG is completely normal! Side Note: It's super fun to sob in front of Japanese men and watch them squirm When I kept repeati...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...

it's like being asked to the prom...

only MUCH MUCH bigger! I had noticed (yes...I stalk my site meter!) that a government ISP had logged onto Trevor's blog. Whoever it was had spent a good deal of time hanging out too. Followed a few minutes later by a government ISP...hailing from Washington. As in DC! My eyebrow raised. It was just kinda odd. Note-able odd. You know? Anyway...later that day (last week) I was folding laundry & thinking my crazy insane thoughts. Along these lines... I hope I'm not saying anything I shouldn't! Maybe I made somebody mad? Wait a minute! I live in America! I'm allowed to say anything I want! Aren't I???? A shout from the other room interrupted my thoughts before I had a chance to further mull. It was Jonathan. I had just received an email. **Side note...he's always doing that! Reading my emails! Sheesh!*** The said email was from a US Senator's aide! Asking if he could speak with me. Little ole' hardly has time to splash some make-up on ...
