On the roll again...

Hello my dear friends (and sneaky blog readers who never mention you are here, but my blog counter tells me lots of you come around) Last time I checked in I mentioned that Dawson was in a play for the First grade at his school. Oh my goodness, you all should have been there. (Thanks to Granny for coming to see him) He worked SO hard, and did SO well. He didn't forget one line, he stood center stage for the entire play, singing, reading lines, (ahem) cleaning his glasses, looking rather cute, singing some more, (ahem) shaking hay all over the place, and saying even more lines!

Brian has been keeping busy, he has built a deck, a third stall garage (from ground up), next week he is learning how to do some cemeant work and building a storage shed. On June 8, my sweet boy Blake is going in for a surgery. He had ear tubes placed in early 2008 - He has had 3 double ear infections in the last few months. He has gone back to his ENT for a few visits. One of his tubes has fallen out, the other one has however claimed a residence in his ear. Thus creating a problem, because these tubes are designed to "fall-out" on their own. His tube is really full of fluid, really stuck in the ear, and the surgeon is afraid that he will need a graph to fill the whole once he removes this tube from his ear. If the whole is left, permanant damage with hearing and infections could set in. So we have opted to have the tube removed, have a small graph put in place, and take the "wait and see" approach. If he continues with infections, he will go back in (once healed) for another set of tubes.

Is this not the sweetest face you have ever seen?!? I love this little guy. My surgery to have my left ovary removed has been re-scheduled for June 11. The cyst is still growing but causing virtually no pain which seems odd. I've spent a weekend in the hospital a few weeks back for another kidney infection and passed 2 more stones. The last CT scan showed 12 stones still in the Kidney. Maybe that is why I don't notice the ovarian cyst, the stones seem to hurt so bad I could probably chop off my foot at this point and smile. Off to do laundry, will be back with another update soon.
