Lots to tell...Jon and Emilee moved into their new house, taking boxes over during the week and moving the big stuff this weekend. Jon came down to get a table we were giving them and he looked happy, tired, and covered on one side with yogurt, courtesy of little Sammypants. Between Dave's knee and my back we are not much help on the moving front, so David made baskets of food to sustain them during the process.
Speaking of my back and my back surgery, can I just tell you all how wonderful it has gone? I am so strong and pain free. Hannah and I have skied three times so far. The first time I got run over in the lift line and knocked on my behind, but survived no worse for the wear, so I have decided I am disaster proof (knock wood.) We had a 6+ hour flight home from our trip to Washington and that would have killed me last year, but this year it was comfortable and pain free. I have a farewell appointment with my surgeon tomorrow and Dave and I were just debating about what kind of flowers I should take to him.
On the less happy but still hopeful front, our sweet dog Bart had a tumor removed on Thursday. He came through the surgery really well and seems to be feeling great. There is a good chance the tumor will reoccur, but we hope to have at least a few more great years with him. He is such a sweetie, as Don will attest, and a great walking buddy/protector for me. He is also amazingly tolerant of Hannah's kitten, who makes erratic leaps at his face, snuggles in his doggie bed, and bats at his tail like it's a speed bag in boxing. Ok everybody, send him your positive energy!
