Bear Report

So the cortisone shot - not some thing that Bryan wants to do ever again. I didn't get to go with him and he said I looked quite forlorn watching him go. I guess it wasn't much fun. But he seems to be doing a little bit better. Still not 100% but better. So that's good. He has more physical therapy this week and we need to make sure he's doing his home work.

Nothing else exciting going on. We are planning our next trip, just a long weekend but we are lookling forward to the time away.

Back Attack

Bryan is scheduled to receive his first (of maybe two) cortisone shots on Thursday morning. Hopefully, that will bring him a little relief from the pain. This week has not been so good. The full days back at work are making for a stiff and sore Bryan. We are keeping our fingers crossed the the cortisone shot(s) will allow him to start moving a little more easily and he can start to strengthen his back.

This weekend there was a little sun and we went down to Juanita Bay on Lake Washington. Bryan got to use his new lens for the first time.



The trees are starting to bloom. It seems a little later than last year but a welcome sign of spring. It has been very cloudy this fall.




There is quite a bit of wildlife that lives in the park. We've seen beavers and herons before but Sunday there were just ducks and turtles. Not just - they were very cute. The duck had very orange feet.




All in all a very pretty day



Keep Bryan in your thoughts this week. Love to all!

Happenings around the House

So, I'm off today taking care of my Bear. I brought him breakfast in bed, rubbed his feet and made him a sandwich. Now we are watching Star Wars. Kind of an awesome sick day - at least for me. Bryan's still in quite a lot of pain. He had his MRI yesterday and should be getting the results tomorrow morning. Hopefully that will help to figure out how to make him better. He could use some happy, healthy thoughts sent his way.

Not much has been going on. Our last outing was to the Pacific Science Center. It wasn't exactly what I was expected but we had a good time.



They have these awesome animatronic bugs.



These are from the butterfly house. Very pretty and fun to have all the butterflies flying about.





And of course dinosaurs!!





And Bryan holding a meteorite. It was very, very heavy!



They are having a Star Wars exhibit later this month and are showing Legends of Flight in 3-D on the big IMAX screen. So there will be at least one more trip.
