Milestones
Hi Friends,
Twas a long day, and it's late so I must get to bed. I now have blessed hot water in my apartment and was able to take my first shower here! Yay!!! There were of course more steps to getting it than I would have liked today, but to make a long story short, we're in business. As for the electric, I'm not so lucky on that front and must wait until Tuesday when a bigger crew can come and rewire some things and replace some fixtures, etc...of course it couldn't be simple like a blown fuse. Oh well, I'm a happy camper with my hot water. :)
The other big news of the day is that mom emailed me all by herself today for the first time!!!! She brought the directions down to the computer that I'd written out for her about how to access email, and she replied to my email!!! Hallelujah!! I remember the first time she called me on her cell phone all by herself like it was just yesterday, and I will forever remember the first solo email! :) :) :) I'm so proud...and so encouraged by the forward progress. It's slower, but it's still happening!!!!
Went to the OB resident prom at The Drake tonight as I have done the previous two years as well. Not so many L&D nurses this year as before, but it was still fun, and getting a free meal and drinks at a fancy hotel is never a bad thing. :) Borrowed a dress and shoes from Pam, who is sick in bed tonight poor thing, and got myself all dolled up for the occasion. Was fun, but now I must get to bed. Tomorrow is mom's bday, and we'll be celebrating with brunch and then perhaps a barbecue for dinner, so must get to the store in the morning bright and early to prepare. Thanks all for your continued love and support! Peace.
