waiting for things to melt...

got these at Walmart last year...
just basic plain cards waiting for something fun to happen...

got a couple more done this evening...

and so the update on DH...
he has a radial head fracture in the elbow...

they put a rigid brace on him and he has to wear that for a week at all times...
with the sling...

babies...

he wears that for a week and then goes back to see the doctor again...
if all goes well, that's all he has to do...
if not...
its going to be surgery and two screws...

so pray he doesn't do anything else to it in the next week...
until the sling is off and he can use his arm again...
he is the new office girl at work...
he takes the ribbing...
and they do give each other a hard time there...
because he knows if it was someone else in there...
he would be one of the first to poke fun at someone else...

got my crafty going...

I did something yesterday that I haven't done in a long time...

I played in my drawers...

no, not those drawers...

my craft supply drawers...

and I made a valentine...

for the old guy who lives here...

those metal clamps let it dry flat...

and would you believe he finally went to the doctor?

and the xrays showed that there is a possible fracture inside the elbow...
and he has to see the ortho doctor tomorrow afternoon...
and the doctor today gave him a sling and told him to use it...
got back to work and he couldn't work outside in his sling...
so he got an office job...
the ortho doc may be able to read the xrays better or he may need an MRI...
and possible surgery...
nothing like waiting a whole week to have something done...

on a good note...
the long range forecast has us at 50 by next Wednesday...
woo hoo!
let the melting begin, I say...
and if DH is really good and heals fast...
he should be mended just in time to help with the spring clean up and planting!
what a guy...
:)
have a good day and stay warm just a bit longer...
we have record breaking cold temps overnight here...
wind chill of -21...
and maybe a tad colder than that...
I am so excited about that 50 coming our way!

cuteness overload...

we have a winker...

and a serious one...

one that sticks it tongue out at you...

and a talker...

still napping most of the time...

until mom wakes them up...

or you breathe on them...

right after breakfast...

adorable...

three girls and one boy...

two are already adopted...
waiting to find homes for the other two...
good photos help place babies faster into their furever homes...
do you take good photos?
offer your help to your local shelter...
;)
have a great Monday...

if we're lucky...

maybe, and just maybe...

another two weeks of this...

its going to be a major melt when it happens...

went for a teeny drive around town after lunch...

in town roads are nasty and slick...

when I went to bed last night, I could have cried, my ear hurt so bad...

but when I woke up, it was so much better and still improving...

so I opted out of  going to the weekend clinic...

I was so dreading getting out and getting around in this with the wheel chair...
or taking the chance of falling if they don't have things cleared off...
or being around the flu and cold bugs in the clinic...
which I would have probably caught...
and after getting out here and seeing what the roads looked like...
I am glad the ear was better...

thanking Him for His healing...
and all that He has given freely to us...
;)

somebunny loves me...

isn't this just the cutest thing ever?

and can you believe its mine?

I saw it online from one of our local businesses early in the week and called them...
can you put one back for me?  
please?

and my boy ran out and picked it up for me...
except he paid for it...
and told me happy valentine's day...
he loves me...
;)

I am posting tonight because the morning is going to be nuts for us...
I need to get to the clinic in the morning...
and its bitter cold, which I do not do well out in it...
and with DH's arm, he cannot push me, I don't think...
ok, we have this heating problem in the vehicles...
the car in which we can all fit...
the heat isn't very good...
its enough to keep you from freezing to death and that's about it...
the truck's heater is stuck on high...
but its a squeeze for Craig to ride in the 3rd seat behind us...
but we would be warm...
I have no idea what we will do or if I will even go at all...
have a throbbing ear ache down into my jaw and know I need to go...
but just might make my own antibiotics and see what happens...
;)

I have my bunnies, though, and they make me happy...
have a good weekend...
