Guess what? Oh forget it, I'll just tell you. Hope you're sitting down. Within the last week we have received both Colby's diapers and his formula! Finally! I mean freakin' fi-nal-ly. I've been dealing with this BS since mid-December. Must have somehow by the grace of all that is good and holy reached the right person, because once I told the chick the problems, she made some calls and Bazinga, deliveries were made within days. About damn time.
Had a turkey taking up space in the freezer, so I thawed it out and baked it. Colby's nurse comes in and says, "Oh, you made all that big turkey just for yourself?" Okay, first thing, nurse, thank you for reminding me that I'm still very single. Secondly, she obviously isn't around here much, because let's face it, this girl can eat. It is getting a little old though. So far I've had turkey on toast with gravy, turkey and noodles, and turkey sandwiches. I'm just about turkeyed out now.
Colby continues to be as cute, adorable, sweet, funny, rotten and a hot mess as always. He was using his eye gaze tonight. Sometimes he'll say or do the same thing over and over, but tonight he was also finding some new buttons. For some reason he keeps saying "favorite e-mail." What up with that? I have no idea what he's trying to say with this. He also said tonight, as well as at school the other day, U of L good, U of L go-go-go. Don't think I wasn't quick to remind him that they have lost their last 3 games. We finally got his school pictures back. They are awesome! I need to get on the ball and print out some copies for everyone. The first ones sucked so badly I had him do retakes. Colby has a field trip coming up and for the first time, I'm vetoing it. They're going to Incredible Dave's and I'm thinking, yeah, I just don't see that happening. Germs. I immediately think of those germ-infested games that would be there. Plus I'm sure they'll be eating there, which is no big deal to Colby since he's g-tube fed. He seldom goes out in public in winter except for school. Have to keep this kid as healthy as possible.
It's been a great weekend. Had Wine Night Friday, and you know how I love getting together with my girlie friends. Worked half a day Saturday, then went out to lunch with more girlie friends. Last night went out and kicked my heels up a bit. Every now and then you just gotta let loose, you know? A guy from high school is in a local band, so a bunch of us got together to go watch them. Yep, it was pretty wild. And nope, not sharing the pics that prove it. Colby's dad came for his weekly visit, and I headed out to Zumba. Also went to Mass. Just a typical Sunday around here.
Colby's nurse is back there giving him his cough treatment and getting him ready for bed. I'll slide in when she's done for some QT before it's lights out for him. My dad got me "Rising from the Ashes", a book about IU's basketball season last year. I've been reading it to Colby. Don't really know if he wants to hear it or not, but dangit, that's too bad. Good for him to know about something else besides Bikini Bottom. Bye for now.
