Week 27

Hello and TGIF!  It's been super busy so I'm running behind which means I'll have 3 two weeks of posts to get out today.  This one is from 3, almost 4, weeks ago during the 4th of July week and most of the week was about integrating back into real life by getting out there to do things we would normally do.  That made for a really great and fun week.

Here are those pictures:

Day 185- Monday, 7/4/22

Happy 4th of July!  It was wonderful to have John out front with us to enjoy fireworks in the traditional way we do.  The boys took charge and made our street ones come alive while the crazy neighbors around us gave us a good sky show.

Day 186- Tuesday, 7/5/22

Squeezing in an eye appointment for me.  It's time for some prescription glasses instead of just readers from Target.

Day 187- Wednesday, 7/6/22

Wednesday at work I'm grabbing coffee from across the street as I transition from in-lab work to cubicle computer work.  It's nice after all these years to have desk space outside the lab where I can have food and drink as I continue to work.  Back at home I helped John order a part for our pool sweep connection that busted while the boys were in the pool 4th of July.  You can find anything on Amazon.

Day 188- Thursday, 7/7/22

Today was an orthotics appointment to be fitted for a custom brace to help with foot drop so he can start walking again.  I like their motto but I'm sad it will take 4-6 weeks to get the brace made.  Supply- issues continue to be a huge problem these days.  Good to know we can order a quick and cheap one on Amazon to hold him over until then.  See--you really can get anything on Amazon!

Day 189- Friday 7/8/22

TGIF!  His and hers.  We usually have pizza rolls and a movie at home on Friday's but opted for a healthier pizza choice (well at least one of them is healthier) to go with our movie.  It's was time to finally watch Cyrano.

Day 190- Saturday, 7/9/22

. . . and today we went out to the movies!  Top Gun Maverick did not disappoint.  Two of the boys were able to join us as well.  Plus earlier there was a trip together to Home Depot and John asking to do some work in the garage.  Brandon and I were surprised and excited to see John back in his happy place tinkering away.

Day 191- Sunday, 7/10/22

Family dinner night ended with pool time for the boys and yard time for Bella.   It was a nice cool summer evening after a long hot day and the perfect way to wrap up a great week.

That's all!
