Hey Mari, waves & Beth, I am doing as well as can be expected. Just kinda down, Jackie's sick and I am wondering if his wisdom isn't impacting his upper right molar because he acted out violently at school last week, hitting one student then scratching another one, then when told to sit down (this happened outside at the playground) he started banging his head and cursing and said, "I'm angry my tooth is hurting!" so I am just afraid he's gonna need surgery.

The school pictures came back crappy so with him sick we're gonna miss retakes Monday and end up with NO school pics this year. *Sigh* I just hate this, the ones they took he had a goofy stupid lookinng grin that wasn't a smile, and we sent them back thinking he'd be able to get retakes. But with him having a runny nose and slightly elevated temp it's not gonna happen. So we're gonna end up with a refund when we wanted pics.

I am bleeding for my regular cycle and it's NOT nearly as bad s it was before, I had a good dr appt yesterday and got a clean bill of health, and it looks like I can put off getting the hysterectomy at least for now since things are NOT nearly as heavy as they were this time last month. The only bad thing is that I had to cancel my appt for getting the new cast made, it kinda stinks, because I was bleeding. *Sigh* So that's how we've been. It's just been rough. I am grateful it's less heavy this month, but just disappointed I had to cancel my appt for the new casting session. I don't think I am gonna have the c-leg by my birthday after all because I forsee this new vacuum socket failing miserably as the previous two attempts have...and that bothers me, I feel like we're wasting time and effort on something I know will NOT work.

I hope you three are doing well, I admit I haven't been posting as much because my outlook is kinda down at the moment, but I will try to check in more often. I think about you all daily, wondering how you're each doing, and hoping that you're doing well. Take care and I'll check in again soon.
