Cast off!

No, not stranded on a deserted island...
Abby's cast came off today! Yay! She isn't walking yet though. That will be in a few weeks. She will be starting physical therapy this week. Then she will need to go to physical therapy 2 times per week for the next month or two. For right now, she is still walking with her walker and not putting any weight on her left leg.

Cutting Abby's cast off with the saw:

Back from break

Today was the first day back from spring break.  Back to class and back to reality. No more watching trashy tv, playing Sims 2, and taking naps. It's refreshing to get back to my schedule and be at school though.

I think my spring break was a success.

I got my hair cut.
Scrapbooked with Amy.
Visited Alycia and baby Ethan.
Had lunch with Josh.
Had a visit from my father-in-law.
Got a new car.
Did some research for my primate cons. class.
Broke my glasses, but ordered 2 new pairs from Zenni Optical
Some photos of it all:

Chocolate face

I just used this face mask (bought at Ulta) and OMG, I love it! It smells so good that I was seriously tempted to eat some. It's not a strong chocolate smell, just a light smell and after you wash it off you can still smell a hint of chocolate. Besides the smell, it felt good and left my skin really soft.  A nice little treat for around $2.00.

This week's happiness...

Brought to you by cookies and Hello Kitty tents....

Life has been very stressful for me lately, but rather than focusing on that...here are some photos of things that made me smile over the past week.

My roses that Josh gave me for Valentine's day in full bloom...

Abby playing in her room in her Hello Kitty tent. It's awesome that she is able to play in there again, despite the cast...

Hee hee, I wish I could play in there too!
