I can’t even think of a title. I’ve been getting emails from people asking if I am ok. Yes, I’m still healing. I am praying it continues. There is still something funny in my eye. The eye doctor said it could be something that was stuck on my curling iron and got pushed into my eye. It looks viral but I don’t have other symptoms. It also could be stress. He said not to be surprised at that, this definitely has been a stressful journey.

I have most of my sight back but still a little blurry. I am not willing to accept that this is as good as it gets. I’m trying to not let it make me crazy. I am also very grateful for the healing I have received. Now he tells me how really bad it was. I am having a little trouble with flashbacks. I told Kenny today that I will be happy when this is a distant memory.

There has been a lot going on. It’s kind of silly, I got a new memory card for my camera and left it home so I have nothing to jog my memory. I’m not there so hmmm, let’s see. (my memory seems to have taken flight after the big incident)

Rebecca and Chase moved right after her birthday. I’d show you pictures of that but they are on my memory card. They got a house and more room and the exciting thing is the dishwasher and the washer and dryer right in the house.

We drove to Oregon today and it was interesting weather…rain, bright sun, cloudy, hail. It was hard on my eyes today so I spent part of the time with my eyes closed listening to a book.

This was coming over the bridge and where the bright spot on the right is….it was raining through the clouds and was really pretty but it doesn’t really show. (lol….not sure why I’m showing it)

Right after we went over the bridge, we made a stop at Costco.

Do you suppose people could guess I am a knitter?

Wrapped around my ankle.

The car was locked already and I was really tangled. lol

Well, I got to get something I’ve been wanting for awhile. I didn’t need it and *things* don’t fix life when it feels hard, but it was something I’ve been wanting. Kenny helped me out so I could get the next step up from what I’d planned.

Can you tell what it is? Sorry, I was really tired so the picture isn’t great. But….this is right after I finally got it out of the box while we were getting gas. An iPod Touch! My other iPod is dying a slow death (not fast enough tho!). I am so excited with it and anyone who knows me knows I will get a lot of use out of it. It has wireless, too!

I know I just got my MacBook, but that I saved for two years for. This was a splurge, but I think I will pay myself back.

We’re spending the night in Oregon with all of our kids in a rented vacation house. We have a function tomorrow to attend with my in-laws and they are having water problems so we are doing it this way instead. It’s working out great. Kyle will be here tomorrow, he had to work. We do have the little missy, though!

She was a trooper. She rode with us in our small car and her schedule got all off. She’s enjoying stretching out a little after the long drive.

Grandma and Grandpa came down for dinner and enjoyed bath time for the little chickie.

I had never gotten to see bath time, either.

Do you see the lighted duckies? I have never seen anything like that! She does so well for a brand new sitter!

She likes her kicking time, too!

All snuggy and ready for jammies and bed!

And that’s where I’m headed, too!
