So I know my blog is suffering from neglect lately. I've been so busy being craft crazy that I haven't taken the chance to update what's going on in my life here. Basically, it's all crafting, all the time. And I think A.J. is starting to suffer a bit because of it. But never fear, Preschool starts this week and that give me 3 hours twice a week to have some guilt free mommy time! Couple of updates:
First, A.J. is almost completely back to his normal self. We had our post op appointment on the 23rd and the Doc cleared him for all normal activity. (Actually, that was a formality because there was no keeping him down before that anyway!) The nerve graft hasn't taken yet, but that is completely normal and could take up to 6 months before we see any improvement there. His nerve hearing is normal and the conductive loss isn't as bad as I feared and should be normal once we get the "anvil" fixed. We scheduled that surgery for mid January. We also go see the geneticist on Sept 18. I know we've asked for a lot of prayers before, but we need a few more as we prepare for that too. Mostly that we will find peace in the answer, whatever it will be.
Second, James returns to Georgia for more training this week. Luckily it is just one week, but it is hurricane season so we are keeping our fingers crossed that all storms will avoid the southern Georgia coast before he returns on his birthday next Saturday.
And third, in all the craft craziness, I had to revise my indexing goal for the month of August. But I still managed to get 3000 names done last month. A pretty respectable number. I'm sure I won't get nearly that many done this month though.
I'll post again soon because I have some pictures to share! But today I am off to Midway for Swiss Days! TTFN
