Slowly Returning to a New Normal


Yesterday was my check up at the doctor.  I am happy to report that not only is my blood pressure normal (120/86), but I've also lost 40 lbs.  I still have a little fluid in me, but it's nothing like it was.  I can actually see the muscles in my foot.  They aren't 100% back to normal, but at least they aren't bruised anymore.



So the doctor will keep me on the BP medicine for another 6 weeks, just to make sure I'm normal.  But other than that, I'm doing well.  Oh yeah, and my lungs sounded clear.  So there's no fluid there either.  That's a big thing.


Aunt Betty, Nanny and Jolie got here yesterday.  They have been very helpful.  Not sure how long they are staying, but I can't believe it's been 2 weeks already!  

We will be cheering on LSU tonight!  That's really about it.

Hey, Rachael and Peyton, look at all that hair she got from her Dad (a/k/a Uncle Thad). She sure is as sweet as she is beautiful -- Sweet, just like her Big!
