A day late but happy birthday Tracey!
Hope you had a happy birthday Tracey! Sorry, kind of ‘out of it’ over here. I went out to the big wholesale shopping place again, shudder… i really have a hard time with shopping. Anyway, then i went to Dairy Queen of all places. Thought i would bring back some dilly bar things or something, but it was, surprise, a different place than back home. They just had sundaes and some blizzards, and ice cream cakes. And they had hot dogs and maybe hamburgers, but i noticed they had little plastic ‘sample’ hotdogs on the counter – one with cheese, one with chili, one with chili and cheese… very strange, i mean there was a big menu board up there too, but just in case you could point to the lovely plastic replica of your chosen dog. So i brought a ‘Happy Birthday’ cake. It was the smallest and cheapest one. Thought of Auntie Tracey as we ate our cake.
Tomorrow is our last Friday here! We are really counting down now!!! Hoping Becky can be coaxed into going out for lunch tomorrow or one day soon. If it’s a nice day it can be really nice down Middle Street in the pedestrian only mall. And there was a salad bar at Pizza Hut. there were peas, i’m dreaming about those peas… sad, i know.
anyway, not too much to say today, just glad to cross another day off the calendar and pretty much a headache free day too. (knock wood) And Becky was doing so incredible at physio this afternoon – she is getting up from seated to standing on her own and she took a few steps without any help today!!! Jennifer helped a wee bit with balance but Becky previously always needed to use her hands – on a walker, a railing or a person – today her legs did it all!! pretty dang awesome!!!
hugs and stuff from China and HIGH FIVES!!!
Becky, Pat and kim
