The weather started out fabulous this week, getting all the way up in to the sixties before a harsh dose of reality slapped us in the face and reminded us that it is still officially winter. Matt ended his wrestling season in a flurry with 6 matches in 6 days. Ann had surgery on her arm and things were, as usual, always different; always something going on… On Monday, Grandma & Gigi joined us at Matt’s last home wrestling meet. They went up against Milan Middle School. They destroyed them 70 – 35! Matt’s match was lopsided as well, pinning his opponent in 23 seconds!! Gigi took some good pictures for us as well…thanks Gigi!
Ann & I had the day off on Tuesday, as we took her in to CRH for work on her elbow and wrist. Her hand has been going to sleep at work, at home, and while sleeping – causing her much anguish and loss of quality sleep. She was supposed to be out of surgery around 9 or so; however, due to a last minute scheduling change on their end and the doctor taking his time and doing more than he anticipated, she wasn’t stable enough for me to come see her until well after lunch. I got to each breakfast with one of her docs, George, who then took me up to their private suite to watch TV, shoot the bull and try to relax. We started talking about our new video camera and looked up some of the specs of this type of file that it creates. Turns out we needed a faster computer as well. He told me about a laptop he and the other doc, Dan had just gotten at Tiger Direct. So, we looked it up and they still had a few left. It is a sweet machine… Ann’s scrapbooking friend, Karen, brought over dinner for us that night; which was very sweet of her. Oh, and Abby brought home her friend “Kevin.??? 😛
Ann stayed home on Wednesday to recuperate. She was still in quite a bit of pain, but managed pretty well. It was an interesting morning, getting the kids ready on my own. According to Ann, I made plenty of mistakes with wardrobe choices; but overall we came out alright. Grandma made dinner for us that night, which was really cool. Our new video camera arrived that night, so I played with it all night…the video is amazing…
