Ummm, where have *I* been????
Well, it seems that I really miss my summer time. Now that I'm back at work I have NO time for myself!!
It's been a month of school...ALREADY! I come home just wiped out and drained. I'd been out of work since April due to surgery on my arm and before that I'd been half time since February. Man, I feel so out of shape, work wise LOL.
The boys are pretty well settled in school, no progress reports for them this term! Wahoo! I've had several compliments from the boys' teachers too, that's a really nice feeling.
FINALLY got my van back from the body shop last Monday. It was about a month that we'd been without it. SOOO hard to deal with! We all don't fit in the little green car so we'd have to make a couple of trips to get the kids to school and me to work. A couple of the boys would have to stay home from church on the Sundays because we couldn't all fit! But it's over, we've gotten through it and we can go on with our daily routine.
Andrew is going to have to have surgery on his ears. Tubes in the left and then a procedure in the right which includes digging into the bone to remove the diseased portion and reconstructing the middle ear. I'm very scared, but I know everything will work out. He sees the surgeon a week from Wednesday.
I have no idea why, or when this happened but the CT scan of his head did not show this desease when he had it done in Feb of this year ( for his eye problems). The CT scan taken a month ago shows the disease...what happend between February and August? He's still on the Prednisone, I HATE that medication, HATE IT! Poor guy just doesn't know how to handle himself sometimes, he gets angry and desesperado (spanish for anxious) He reminds me of my mother when I see him like that and I just feel really sad and helpless.
He's gained a lot of weight and he's got "moon face" but he still thinks he's "Sexy" LOL I don't know where that kid gets his self esteem but THANK GOD, he's not like his dad in that area! As a kid, and as an adult, Willy had a very hard time with his self-esteem, I guess it's who your mama is huh? :) I've always told my boys how handsome they are...I guess to a fault because I've got to take a pin to my Andrew's head every now and then
We'll get through this too, but my feet hurt with all the splinters and tacks in them. (Mother to son)

Yay! I'm glad you posted! I missed you! :-)
I'm so sorry about Andrew's surgery, but if it'll make him better, then it's for the best. I'll be thinking of him.
Hope to see you soon!! Friday?!
Nice to finally have you post again Rebecca, I've missed you. Without going to V's...wait, I can call it Suzys here!...to scrap for a month I've missed catching up with you.
So sorry to hear about Andrews surgery but glad they finally figured out what was going on. My thoughts will be with him, you and your family.
I'm so glad your posting again! I've missed reading your blog entries! I'll be thinking of Andrew until (well after too, but you know what I mean) his surgery is complete and successful. If you need ANYTHING, just ring.
