An Update
24 October 2007
I’ve been meaning to write, really I have. I don’t even have a good excuse for not writing. Yea, I’ve been busy, but who hasn’t? I guess at least I’m writing NOW. Hi. I’m writing!
My work life has really slowed down. There are very few calls and emails coming in right now. In a way it’s nice, I can sit back and say phew… we had a hard fall term getting going and now everyone is actively using the site and the complaints are really slowing down, this is good. But in a way it’s bad because there’s a lot of time to twiddle my thumbs during the work day (what are you saying? I could write in my blog??) and I get bored easily.
So what have I been busy with then you ask? Well, Carolyn and I have been working our butts off in the house since last week. It all started with the delivery of the new HOTTUB! Just clearing way for that to come into the backyard was hours of work culminating in a trip to the dump. And then it moved into cleaning out my shop space (which was a huge all day chore). And then it moved to Carolyn installing some new faucets on two of our sinks. Which led to stripping some nasty paneling out from under the kitchen sink where water had been dripping. And now, and hopefully last on the list is moving all the crap out of the house and onto the front yard for a massive yard sale this weekend. I’m tired. But thank god we have a really cool new HOTTUB to lounge around in any time of day.
In other news, my face looks much better, although it is still very annoying. My black eyes and major swelling are gone. The line is not so visible when I wear my glasses, which is most of the time. But there is still a lot of pressure on my forehead, and the area just above one of my eyebrows is very sore. And when I’m in the car the whole thing tingles. And then of course there’s the numbness, which is better, but still very active. All in all, it’s an improvement to what it was, but I have a feeling I’ll be dealing with the weird feelings of this injury for quite awhile to come.

Hi! Hey I am glad you are healing. If you ever feel like building a long retaining wall, installing french doors, pouring concrete and building a lattice patio roof lemme know!

Glad to hear you are on the mend. Ran across this and thought you would find it interesting.
