Bugs and Loose Screws

Wednesday and Thursday I was fighting off some strange bug that that caused things that I won't describe to you while leaving me weak and achey. Today has been a much better day, and we spent it at the doc office with PDaddy who apparently (and very amusingly) has a screw loose. It seems that the stubborn fellow who should've listened to his little wifey-poo has been doing a bit much lately and possibly has loosened one of the screws in his metal plated collar bone. So, doc ordered him back into the arm sling and advised him to restrict his movements for the next TWO weeks (oh joy.) SO! He was none too happy about that, but the alternative is not an option...the alternative being another surgery to remove the metal plate only to insert a much longer metal plate thereby creating new screw holes in the bone. An option that is not an option in my opinion. The man is so stinking hard headed. UG! So, if I have to tie his arms to his side, I will.
We had originally planned to take the kids to the movie today to see Journey to the Center of the Earth, but I guess we'll put that off until next week. We're going out to dinner tonight with our old neighbors, and tomorrow we plan to let the kids re-initiate the pool. After a lengthy spell, we have it back in working order and the water is now beautiful and clear.
I suppose I should go get ready for dinner. We are going without kids, so we should be able to chew our food and talk at the same time. Well, not the same time, right? Ha!
