Tom had his surgery for his new hip - right one this time. Same doc, same place, much of it all the same. His recovery seems much better this time. Since it is January and cold and yucky, it isn't that hard to just veg inside. We have been playing lots of Wii - thanks kids for our Christmas present. I kick butt in Mario Cart. Tom is getting around the block a little bit, now that the roads are thawing and not so icy. We looked over our email from March of 2008 to see how his recovery from his left hip compared to this one. It spurred him on to get out and get going!
Here it is Feb. 2nd already. Our grandson, Timmy's, 5th birthday (if you don't count the day he was born as the first) yet, it seems like yesterday that he was born. Time sure flies. I haven't missed any of his birthdays but this one. We will try to go visit toward the end of this month - maybe make his baptism birthday.
