Crossing my fingers

First and foremost - I think my folks are REALLY coming to see us this weekend. We have been here 13 months and with the chemo they couldn't come down to visit - or for the wedding - or for anything - so FINALLY they are coming on Saturday. I am SO excited to show them around. We have a brunch planned for Sunday afternoon for my family - and Justin's family to finally meet. OF course this was great planning because if they don't all like each other, it is too late now because I am keeping him - he's the good husband. I have Friday afternoon off so I'll have some time to get things taken care of at the house just in time for company . I am sure that Scruffy - pictured with my folks - will just love Kitten Bob - who is currently terrorizing the parakeets.




Second - we moved boxes out of the room where my folks are going to sleep - thought they's prefer a bed to the pile of boxes for sleeping- and I am keenly aware of my age. We got it done fast, but now I need more Ibuprofen

Third -things for Jerra have been much better - her post yesterday confirmed her resilience. Do you ever look at your kids and think - wow I must have done something right because this is a great kid. Yep, I think that all the time.

Fourth - the condition of the goats is guarded - but after five days of antibiotics and all the alternative medicine I know to provide, they are eating heartily and have been more active - though the lungs still sound yucky ( yep that's a medical term) Hopefully they will continue to heal and get back to being healthy.
