Hello to all of our faithful friends.  Thank you for being patient with me as we try to adjust to life at home and the chaos that comes with it.  Things are progressing well on our floors.  The guys who are doing the work are great.  They are taking the extra time that is needed to make sure things are done correctly.  I told them that they are probably going to have nightmares about me requesting things being done a certain way.  Hopefully they continue to be understanding.
Today I was able to finally speak to my good friend Patty (Chocolate) back at the RMH in Seattle.  I have missed her so very much since we left.  Not a day goes by that I do not think about her, Jazmin, Carlos, Laurie and Thomas.  They all truly became a part of our family and will continue to be so.  Patty has a rougher time of it than Laurie and I though.  We are back at home being kept busy with our getting back into our daily routines while Patty is stuck back at the house without either of us to be there.  The house can be very lonely when your friends are not there, although I am sure that Patty will make new friends also.  That is just the kind of great lady that she is.
Aidan is doing great!  He runs around like crazy and only every now and again are we reminded that he has cancer.  On the whole though he is like most five year olds, full of energy and they think they know it all.  I wouldn't want it any other way.
Sage is back into the daily grind of school although he is not enjoying the year so far.  The bright spot for him is his new friend Roger and his reacquaintance with his best buddy Taylor. 
Mike and Dad went and got fitted for their tuxes today.  I didn't go so hopefully they got something good.  I am always a little scared when men do their shopping on their own.  As for me, still no dress.  I didn't even get a chance to go and look for a dress today.  Hopefully tomorrow will offer me a little bit more time in between appointments and floor guys. 
To all of you, may you be blessed with health and happiness and the knowledge of how precious each and every day is.  Please continue to look for postings.  I will be here as long as you are.
