Dad's on the mend

Try as I might to format my blog, it's just not working. Monday I posted what I ate... Tuesday I took pictures of what I ate but didn't have time to post them... then at Job #2 Alyssa talked about how it's annoying when people take pictures of their food, haha. I kind of feel like she's right, so... I'm ditching that approach.

But enough of that, I have good news to report! After months of trying to ease his shoulder/arm pain, my dad finally had surgery yesterday and it went smoothly! What a relief. :-)

Done with surgery and already having coffee!

So far this year both of my parents have had surgery, and I've felt bad that I wasn't around for either. Thankfully my mom was able to keep him company.

They're having a romantic hospital dinner haha

Two Larson's down, one to go? I go in Wednesday morning to a specialist... she'll possibly be taking some x-rays, so I'll be one step closer to knowing if I'm just being a big wuss or if I'm going to need surgery too. 2013 really sucks so far. Hopefully it will start to get better...

Hmm what else. Sheena has set a wedding date - November 2nd. Yay! Andy and I aren't nearly as "on the ball" as Jason and Sheena, but we have (and by we I mean I) have at least narrowed it down to 6 venues to check out. Of course I have no idea when we'll actually visit them. Baby steps I suppose.

Job #1 has been super busy - I had two field-trip concerts to run, but thankfully there won't be anymore until May. Phew! Job #2 isn't as bad anymore now that I've just started saying no to extra shifts.

I guess that's really about all I have to report... I pretty much just go to work and then come home and sit. I sure hope I can get back to the gym soon. I don't feel like I have nearly as much energy as I do when I get some exercise.

Looking ahead... here's what I'm looking forward to:

Saturday - Johnny's Running of the Green 5 mile race. Yes I'm signed up (I signed up awhile ago). No I'm not running. But I'm still going to cheer on Sarah. And then we are going to eat breakfast and watch the parade. Yay!

Sunday - Elizabeth's Birthday

Monday - Sarah's Birthday and The Biggest Loser Finale (Go Danni!!)

Wednesday - KNEE APPOINTMENT!!!!

Thursday - Anna's concerto with the RPO!

Friday - Sue's Birthday, Anna and Bipul's wedding, and Sarah's birthday celebration with her Zumba friends!

Saturday - Anna's concerto with the RPO (again) and Anna and Bipul's Wedding Celebration!!!

Looks like a fun and busy week ahead. :-)
