Week of October 29, 2007

Monday - We have an appointment. with Dr. Sigua today (rehab doctor). We had to be up at 6:30. YUCK!!!! The appointment. went well, though. He's impressed with Terry's progress, and doesn't want to see him again until Feb. or Mar. We went to see our friends at RHI after that. They were also pleased at how healthy Terry looks and how well he is doing. We ran a couple of errands after that, then came home.

Tuesday - We had a quiet morning, then I wanted to take Terry someplace special for dinner (his birthday is Nov. 2). I had heard of an oyster bar just west of Dayton, so I planned the trip, then went. When we got there, it was closed for renovation! Oh, well, the best laid plans... It was a pretty and enjoyable drive. We did have dinner, just not what was planned. After we got home, we were done for the evening.

Wednesday - We had therapy with James at the hospital today. Apparently Rachel is going to replace Jill at the pool for a time. James will be our therapist for a time. He wants Terry to have twice a week therapy on land for a while. We'll have a total of 4 days, with Wednesday off. We came home and I spent quite a while on the phone trying to straighten out some tax matters. That, of course, took longer than I planned, and the call was only the beginning. We WILL get it worked out, I'm sure.

Thursday - Terry was hurting through the night, so we were up several times. We had a quiet morning, then picked Rylee up from a field trip. We ran a couple of errands, then came home for the night. We hope tonight will be better.
Friday - I had gotten behind on my scheduling, so we didn't go to the pool today. We saw James again. He wanted to do some stretching on Terry. He was afraid that Terry's joints were locking up. After a little work, he loosened up pretty well, so James was pleasantly surprised. He'll continue to work on Terry's flexibility. We went to the store after that. We're planning on potato soup for dinner. Mike and his family are coming, too. As they were discussing coming, Esteina told the boys it was Papaw's birthday, so they wanted to make it special. They brought a party! They had cake and a present, Shrek ears for all, and sang Happy Birthday several times. It was a nice evening.

Saturday - We babysat this evening instead of this morning. We had a quiet day early, then a fun time with the boys.

Sunday - We had a good day today, with church, then a couple of errands, then a movie (at home). We enjoyed the restful day.
