Here's what you need to know:
1. Baby Kitty has a home! Well, she's still living with us, but she will soon be headed to her new and permanent home. My sis-in-law's cousin is taking her. She has a teenage daughter, so Baby Kitty will have 2 sweet mommas.
By the way, we haven't named her, which I suppose is good... her new mommas can do that. But we call her Baby, Boo Boo, BB, and Tank. (That last one is a hoot - it was my nephew's suggestion.)
2. Dan/Daddy is recovering well from his back surgery. I haven't gone into the gory details of how and why he came to need his spine operated on. He and the docs are not 100% certain what "event" caused the damage. It could even be an old gym injury. Let's just say he doesn't always make the wisest decisions when lifting things. Things like washing machines.
3. As for me and my foot... it has been determined that the "Great Sewing Machine Drop of 2008" is the culprit in the foot pain. So I let the podiatrist inject my foot with a veeeeery long needle. Which only made it swell and hurt worse for 2 days. Then the regular old pain came back. There's a follow-up appointment this week, so I may require another injection. Good times.
We interrupt this update to apologize for the geriatric turn our news stories seem to be taking. Granny and Pepaw are apparently one injury away from the AARP. Sorry.
4. The boy is full swing into football, and I have refrained from wrapping him in bubble wrap. So far.
I told him and Dan/Daddy there was nothing safe about a sport that required THAT MUCH padding, protection, and gear.
So far, he's proven to be a little Heisman contender... interceptions, touchdowns, great yardage.
Here he is (#55) on the sidelines sporting his pick socks. The team and coaches are all wearing pink for Breast Cancer Awareness this month. How dang cute are those socks?
I still wish he was playing soccer. Or the guitar.
And that's your recap for the last week or so.
I would make a terrible News Anchor.
Now, Weather Person? That's another story.

"AARP" *snort* You so fuuuunny :)
I am glad you clarified the pink socks. I WAS wondering. I have to say, even in pink socks, The Boy looks darn tough standing there. I don't like the idea of my boy playing football either but there is no doubt that it is a manly endeavor.
Have a great day!
