Yes, It's About Time...

I have not been a good blogger lately. I don't get out much and with the holidays, the snow and the cold it's been no-scooter riding weather. When I don't go out I don't take many pictures either. Let's see if I can fix that. Megan, thank you. You seem to be the only one who's missed me!

Thanksgiving ~ Jeff and I cooked a complete Thanksgiving meal for the two of us and made 12 frozen dinners with all the leftovers.

My back? Yes, it's got a torn disk or something like that so I can't do a lot and especially I can't lift; even little Ellie. :(

Christmas was wonderful. We were able to get Christy here for a week and it was so nice having her "home" with us. We're always home no matter where we are when our family is with us. We did get quite a lot of snow this year. Here's the view off the front porch two days before Christmas. We were excited Christy was here for her first White Christmas in her memory. She was, of course, born in October in Idaho Falls, but we moved from the snow before memory kicked in for her. Anyway, it's now January 13th and most of that snow is still outside!

Oh yes, we finally invested in a snow thrower this year. It makes the job of clearing it off the driveway and walkways so much easier!

So now it's January. I've been having an issue with my health since December 23rd and after two weeks finally went to the doctor. I've now been through an MRI of my brain and c-spine, a nerve conduction study on my left arm and leg and a sleep deprived EEG. I'll find out the results next Tuesday but the general problem is that I keep getting this transient weakness in those two limbs. It's pretty uncomfortable and if it's something to worry about I want to know.

I guess that's about all I have to say as far as an update except that I am now on Facebook and enjoying that when I remember to check in. I appreciate everyone stopping in to see what I've written and I do appreciate being missed; thanks Megan!

I am glad that I made you feel loved because you are. I knew something had to be up with you. I hope they find out whatever is wrong with your back. I think it is good to know. Hopefully though they do find something.
Love you lots!!
