We had a perfectly lovely weekend, thank you very much. Perfect weather. Got Colby outside both days and let him drive his power chair around the parking lot. He did a darn good job. He actually had some intent and purpose to his driving, for the most part, steering AWAY from parked vehicles. That's a nice change haha. I got really brave, or really stupid depending on how you look at it. Colby and I took off to TJ Maxx for an hour or so. Trust me, he's not much of a shopper. The last time I took him shopping it was a complete, scary disaster. Not this time! We only stayed for a little over an hour and I had his bi-pap, suction and oxygen all right there with us. No problems. He also worked with his eye gaze both Saturday and Sunday. He's so fun to watch. He goes to the same things over and over. Like I mentioned before, he keeps going to this one icon that says "yum!" Now, I have no idea why he's doing this, he doesn't eat by mouth for crap's sake. I finally said Colby, stop saying that all the time, you goofball. The very next thing he found and said was "sorry". I swear, that kid cracks me up every day. Or he'll say something off the wall, then he'll find the "just kidding" button and say that. He definitely has a silly, comical kind of personality. Hmmm, where do you suppose he got that?
When Colby's dad was here with him Sunday, I went out shopping for a bit. Trying to get my bedroom redecorated. I've rearranged my furniture in there twice in the last 2 months. I kept the comforter set I had and bought new pictures, lamps and a small nightstand. Also bought a dresser but it's going back. Don't like it in there at all. As soon as my interior decorator (aka BFF Joni) comes over and gives the thumbs up or thumbs down, I'll get everything out and on the walls. I'm pretty sure some of the stuff I bought will get taken back. I have many talents, decorating simply isn't one of them.
Colby's IEP meeting is tomorrow. Oh boy, those can turn into marathons sometimes. Actually I'm thinking it will go okay. I know they had a pre-meeting to make sure everyone working with Colby at his school is "on the same page". As long as everyone agrees that my kid is a freakin' genius, I see no problems whatsoever. Know what I mean, Vern?
That's about it I suppose. Sad to hear Peyton Manning is moving on to another team. I will always think of him as an Indy Colt. It will be very hard to see him wear another team's uniform. Also, I'm very worried about him getting hurt again. Why doesn't he just retire from playing?! He would make an awesome offensive coordinator, or even an announcer. But that's just my two cents worth, and yeah, I know that's exactly what it's worth, a whole two cents.
I've exercised 3 days in a row, and trust me, I'm feeling it. Being out of shape sucks. So when I get on the scale in the morning, I'll be skinny again, right?
Now you know I can't end today's update without saying GO IU, FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!! So, so proud of my Hoosiers. I'm scared to death of them playing UK again, but I'll be cheering them on no matter what! March Madness, you just never know what's going to happen.
I still need to get the dishwasher loaded, I better end for tonight. Plus I'm starting to get a bad case of the yawns, so Adios Amigos.
