He will start out at only 10-20 hours per week, on a trial basis (Social Security sets its limits, you know) and we will go from there. They have worked out the pay scale so as not to tip him over one of those limits. He is in much better mental spirits with this change. I am delighted that they know him so well that they knew it was time.

Elin, I am so excited..i know I wrote on facebook but just had to write here too..Im sure Bob is happy!

Good afternoon, DDA!

Good morning, DDA!!

A bit of a slow day in an otherwise crazy week so I'll definitely take it! Even better it's sunny and beautiful. Hope everyone else can say the same as well today on both accounts - well even better if you can skip the "crazy week" part of the first statement.

Happy Thursday everyone!

Hi,

it's been crazy going to PT three times a week but as of yesterday my therapist has released me, unfortunately it's to go back to the doctor because we haven't made any progress at all. I'll find out next week what the verdict is, but all signs are pointing to surgery. The timing couldn't be much worse if I tried, I've opted to wait until after the June trip and just use a wheel chair, that way I'll still be able to walk short distances, I don't want to take any chances of being miserable for the trip we've been planning ever since Aubrey was born.

Debbie - I am so sorry it has come to surgery.

Oh, Debbie! I'm so sorry! I know you've hoped to avoid surgery. Wish there was something I could do!

Hey, everyone. I need to ask you to send all the good thoughts, and prayers for peace and clarity our way! Some things are coming up for us that could change things for our family pretty drastically. I don't want to say too much right now, but I promise, it's nothing negative. We are just trying to make the right decision for us and the kids. I'll let you know more, when I can, but send me some pixie dust, please!

Good morning, DDA!

I haven no idea why I need to be awake at 3:45 in the morning since I don't have to teach until 10:30!
