Well wishes from the Sunshine Committee at work. Many thanks to everyone for the well wishes and generous outpouring of love and support. Today was my first day without any gauze. I thought it would be uncomfortable with the brace rubbing directly on my skin, but so far so good. Only 3 more weeks until the next phase of recovery.
Obviously, Gromit shares my concern. Actually, Seth had a great run around the neighborhood. I followed alongside on foot, of course, cringing every time there was a bump in the pavement. We cannot afford to have two injured folks in this household!
Gromit chillin' in his favorite morning hangout (he hates when the grass is wet with dew).
Our stylish new rain barrel, a result of our winning bid on the Lowes auction this week. It has a planter in the top, so I moved my Wandering Jew in hopes it will perk up. I hope it rains soon so we can test it out!
Two clearanced wooden hangers from Ikea + two free prints from Walgreens + two removable Command hooks = an inexpensive & fun way to decorate the laundry room (which also happens to be Gromit's "apartment").
This really has been such a blessed week! I got my stitches out and a good report from my doctor, Seth bought a tablet PC for 75% off the retail price, we won TWO items on the Lowes charitable auction, and I found two pairs of practically brand new Merrells at the thrift store. Since everything looks better when Gromit's in the picture, I coerced him into modeling a pair for you. :)
I had the pleasure of transcribing some of the interviews for CPCC & the Global South, a blog chronicling the oral histories of diverse staff and students at CPCC. Above is a rough draft of the banner I'm designing for the blog.
