shower & update

The shower was a complete success. D was thrilled with all that was planned, the food was perfect and plenty, and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. They all got into the games and played with gusto! And, she got a metric ton of more baby stuff.

My sister came with me to help and she was such an amazing help! It was really wonderful.

Yesterday, I went to the doctor (first time in 2 years!) and complained about the persistent pain I've been in for a long time (years.) It's recently (last 4-5 months) gotten much worse, so I'm hoping for relief. She sent me for x-rays, and then hopefully our health insurance will cover physical therapy so I can finally get some respite from the pain.

Today I need to spend the afternoon at my sister's condo so her refrigerator can get delivered. My parents got her a new one as a birthday gift - but Bo found it and arranged for the delivery. It works out alright, as I also need to clean the rental condo in the same complex.

Tomorrow and Thursday are open at the moment - although we may make plans to see a friend. Friday is the last mom's group at my parish for this year. We'll start again in September (provided I decide to continue . . .)

I need to get my mom's Mother's Day gift finished and boxed and mailed . . . if the delivery comes early enough, I'll be able to mail it today I think.
