Hello, all. Nick, Gracie and I are busy as ever. This is a necessary update to let our faithful readers know what is going on in our bustling lives right now.
Nick
Nick returned home from surgery on his collarbone Saturday. He's doing quite well. Dr. Robie said the surgery went very well, and that Nick should feel results very soon. He has about a 7- or 8-inch slice across his shoulder, which is held together by 17 staples. It looks very clean and healthy, though. His pain is beginning to get easier to manage. That's been the hardest part so far. Right now, he's resting a lot. He's not really very comfortable unless he's laying down flat or sitting up with support under his arm. His mp3 player has been, as he said, his saving grace during this experience. Rilo Kiley, Kool Keith, The Weakerthans, and many others have been keeping him occupied during this very boring recovery period.
Gracie
Gracie begins head start tomorrow! She's very excited, needless to say. I'm far more nervous than she is about this adventure. The little bugger is getting so big, and she's so smart. She'll be in a classroom with four girls and eleven boys. I might send her with a stick.
Jenn
I start school tomorrow, as well. I'm nervous, excited, scared, happy ... all at once. I might puke before the day is over.
Feel free to leave comments to give Nick get-well wishes. Happy holiday!
