Family Time

Just as I was feeling guilty for taking the time off, yes, feeling guilty...  But, this really scared the hell out of me and I wanted to be home with him instead of worrying about him while I was at work.  He is doing fine, his arm has finally quit hurting and he can move his wrist now.  His hole in his arm looks mostly healed up.  I tossed the deep fryer and bought an American Heart Association cookbook and have three more coming. We are changing the way we eat and we will start walking as it warms up.  We already hiked so now we will need to do it more often.

I did need this time off to get Aiden settled and to spend time with Rachel and Aiden.  We have the room set up and his stuff mostly put away.  Rachel bought a trampoline yesterday and today we are going shopping for a bike.  Rachel goes back tomorrow to get her own things settled and then she leaves for her "unknown" deployment in another week.  We have spent some great time together and done a lot of visiting to make up for lost time.
