Catch Up

I have been extremely negligent in my blogging this summer. We have been pretty busy and every time I think about posting I get overwhelmed by all there is to talk about and I don't really have pictures for anything. So here goes.

Henry and I (with the help of friends) fenced in our back yard in two days. It was two very long days but very worth it. We now have quite a bit more privacy and can let the dog out without having to watch him at all times. Unfortunately, Siri does not like the back yard and has been spoiled with his free reign of the fields across the street from our house. So our routine has stayed very much the same only now the back yard is fenced.

Henry went back to school at the end of August. We decided he would do this in July and he spent quite a bit of time doing research and found a really great school. He is going to Regis University in Denver and they have a fantastic online program for adult learners which allows him to finish his bachelor's degree from home. He is working full time and going to school full time so he is quite the busy fellow. He takes two classes at a time in eight week terms pretty much year round. He gets a month off at Christmas and a week between spring and summer term and summer and fall term. He is loving his classes so far and having a great time. He will graduate in spring or summer of 2012.

Finally, I am having surgery on both my feet tomorrow. :( I have bunions on both feet that have been REALLY bothering me. It has gotten to the point that it hurts to stand in the shower. I will be happy when it is all over but I am really not looking forward to the process. I will be one to two weeks in a wheelchair, about three weeks with no driving and six weeks in some very stylish surgical boots.

That's all I have for now - I just wanted to do a little catch up before the surgery. I'll be sure to post an update on that soon. Maybe even before and after pictures!
