Good morning!!!!!!!
Well, things are getting back to normal in the G household, but I am honestly whooped! I am still parked on a chair in my jammies, ignoring everything I need to do. Buddy is getting better, thank you!!!!!!!!! He is using a cane, now, unless he is not near me, and then he has to rely on the walker still. His headache is vastly improved, and he is starting to show signs of his old self. I think that every day is better than the previous one, so God is Great, and I am every in His debt. PT has been coming and will come three x a week,. Turns out part of his balance was not the surgery, but the fact that he had been twisted down for so long, and then was stiff for days. She has given his exercises to improve that, as well as some to restore his balance. He has some facial paralysis, but that should go away. He has refused to let Nola and Rylee come see him, he thought that they would be afraid of him. So they started face timing him, and he would not take the phone. Last night we decided enough was enough, and they came over. Best decision ever! Those two Pixies snuggled on his sides and would not leave him. Nola brought two weeks worth of cards and pictures she has been making for him (complete with details about Rylee's refusal to make cards LOL!) and Rylee gave him a cookbook "just for him" that she filched from my shelf. LOL! Today, I need to be the bad guy and try to figure out his pain level balanced with his fear of that headache he had. Wish me luck!
Ellen- Good thing you have a quiet weekend! You never seem to have real down time! I don't know about you, but I am over Winter, it is freakign cold here, and I know that you have had he same pattern. COLD, warm. COLD warm. I have been thinking about you, and am so glad that are okay. Like Doug, Buddy has never been to DL and I would love for him to go. I went with my sister when Kimmie was a CM there, and got to spend one day, (Kim was a bit of a pill, even though she thought she was a Hostess with the mostest) but I was hooked! Buddy and I grew up on dreams of DL so I know he will love it. We have to fly out, though, and getting him to CA is not going to be easy. WE have to fly to FL but somehow that is an easier trip, I guess.
Allison- My niece lives in CA and she bought a seasons pass to DL, but not the best one. Well it did not take too long to figure out that they needed to bite the bullet and spring for one that had fewer black out days because her little boy is a Disney Boy! (Yup....his auntie's boy!) I am envious of your jaunts there, and would love to do that as well!
PIO- Grumpy????? After that luscious New Years meal??? LOL!
Brandi- You cruised on Disney Cruise Line? I have decided that we are taking Kady on a cruise, and have started researching the ships. I liked the Magic, but wonder if the Fantasy ma be a better choice. I saw that Lori had some issues, and now I need to do some work to figure out which ship is best for us. The nurse in the ICU took her kids on the Magic and said it was awesome. I think we may do better because it is smaller, and we have never cruised. I will need to work around my jobm Kady school and Buddy when he goes back to work. So much to think about!
Dinner is going to be whatever Buddy feels like eating.

Hi to everyone else.
for your friend. I sure hope she really was ok. Now about that wall 
. It's the first thing he's brought home and I was really really worried that we wouldn't eat any of it. 
"castor sugar"???? 
Do I wanna know what that is?
