No real progress to report on the foot. I’m able to put a bit of weight on it. And as usual, I push it too far and hurt like hell by bed time. I’ve been working at home which means a longer day. I get to my computer some mornings almost an hour before I’d hit my desk at the office. Lunch time has been a much shorter break as many days Mom brings me lunch and I eat at the computer. And then it doesn’t end until well after I would have left the office to commute home. Not really complaining here as I’m fortunate to have this option, but just stating a fact.
Here is a shot of my festive footwear…
It is a good solid supportive boot. I remove it to go to sleep. The rubber sole gives me a good foundation to step on.
And another fact? The touchpad on my Acer laptop (no not the netbook – mom has that now – I bought a new full sized windows laptop last fall) is making me nuts. It does this weird thing that makes me curse at it. I think I’ll take a break from it and use the MacBook tomorrow
Options are always nice!
Anyway, enough griping. Sitting around has brought more knitting and Sims time. I’ve hit the 10″ mark on Redhook.
It makes for some awesome Sims knitting. Or TV watching knitting. I’m going to go back to it as soon as this post is done. I’m enjoying the best part of American Idol. These auditions are entertaining!
Finally, I haven’t posted a shot of everyone’s favorite monkeys in a while…
The Sunday of Christmas weekend, dad had the brilliant idea to bring the kids into the city to see the tree at Rock Center. I think everyone else in the tri-state area had the same idea. The city was PACKED. There was no getting near the tree. Heck we had trouble getting to the Lincoln Tunnel to get into the city. We wound up driving to Hoboken, taking the PATH train to 33rd street and walking up town. The above shot was taken right in front of the NY Public Library. The monkeys kept asking if they could climb on the lions. Sigh.
Time to go back to knitting.
Craft on!
