I've been upgraded...

To (drumroll please) low heeled dress shoes. Now this may not be a big deal to some but to someone like me who is completely and totally addicted to shoes...well let's just say I'm happy about this development. I am one step closer to getting back into my cute work shoes (read 3 inch leather boots). But for now I'm excited to move to the 1.5 inch clogs. Hooray for physical therapy working it's magic. I still have a ways to go but I can see the end in sight and it looks good.

Well THAT was an interesting weekend

Highlights from my weekend:

1. Went to brother-in-law's housewarming, helped his wife clean up after he passed out in the bathroom. VERY funny =)

2. Stayed up half of Saturday night with Ryker because he has yet another ear infection. According to the doctor, the tubes ARE working or it would be much worse. Yippee =(

3. Took Ryker to the doctor and Walgreens on Sunday. Drove around for an hour afterwards trying to find a way home since the Fox Cities Marathon had everything blocked. Swore heavily under my breath and chewed out traffic cop.

So that was my weekend. I could do with a little less excitement!

Birthdays and therapy

September is an awful month in Carriveau-land. I'm stressed out with a hundred classes to teach to college students who "already know EVERYTHING," and nearly every member of the family has either a birthday or an anniversary (Xander, Ryan, Jason, Kelly and BOTH of our parents!) Today is Jason's 29th. Which he's fine with because he still has a year before he's 30 (and I do not). So happy birthday to my evil little husband =)

In other news, I had my second physical therapy appointment for my post-bunion removal healing and I'm doing really very well at, literally, getting back on my feet again. Which makes me very happy. With any luck I'll have to go again late next week and then I'll be done. I probably won't be back in my cute shoes but I know that day will come. After all, it's therapy not magic. =0
