What's Normal?: Family

If you judge people, you have no time to love them. ~Mother Teresa

Well, it has definately been a long summer for me!

My friends say I didn't miss a thing, not getting outside much. It was smokey & hot, one even said brutal!

I will show you the card I made for Mr B's 5th birthday, then you can get on with your day!

I can finally sit at my desk, so will be making a few Halloween cards!

I got it off of Pinterest! Of course I did!

I have been working from home since the middle of July. For the last week I have been sitting in a normal dining room chair instead of the wheelchair.

I have made an appointment for a sorely needed haircut (it's like Covid hair all over again) for Thursday, and am hoping to get a pedicure that day too. And, I will be driving myself! I haven't driven since before my surgery, but I am confident my leg and knee bends enough that I can drive. If that works, I think I will go back to work after Thanksgiving. The physiotherapist is coming again on October 13th, so I am kinda hoping to impress her!
The kids came to visit for a week or so in August.

It was my birthday while they were here, and moms the day after they left.

Kalen took a day or 2 off work and they went to the top of a mountain, and went to a waterfall in the other direction. A couple hikes.

I stayed home.

Bryson said that I can cook better in a wheelchair than his mom can. I had a hard time getting stuff OUT of the oven, but someone always came along! I have the greatest friends and family!

His parents left him here for 2 days and nights while they went for a getaway about 4 hours from here.

Ate fruit (peaches) off the tree, read books, and watched movies!

Sorry this one is sideways. He told me it was hard to drive!

Then we took him about 3 hours from here, into Alberta to meet his parents, so they could be on their way home.

My brother met us there. He's the impressed looking guy in the middle. We had pizza and water. Was a really hot day, but I wasn't as uncomfortable as I thought I would be. It was nice to get out!
