One Night at the Cabin Home

Written on 8-22-16.

     Belinda and I are up at the cabin home.  She just made a fire, even though we don’t really need one.  It was raining as we drove in, but it isn’t raining here.  Danielle, Belinda, and I took the time to go gather all that wood, though, so we decided to use some tonight, and it’s great for cabin home ambience.  We are here because Belinda has an appointment with her neurologist tomorrow morning.  It will be easy for us to get up and drive less than a half hour to get there.  
     We are going to find out the results of her most recent four MRI’s, and we’ve already heard from the nurse that there were/are four active lesions on her brain (sigh).  We are wondering if her hysterectomy may have caused an episode to occur.  That will be one of many questions we will ask when we go.
     We just returned from Denver last night, and it was a fabulous weekend.  As I mentioned above, we got to see The Fixx live in concert, the major reason for the trip, but we also got some other major bonuses.  On Friday night, Darrell, Angie, Caden, Joe, Tammy, Bev, Curt, Daryl, and Katie all made the effort to come meet us at Dave and Buster’s on Colorado.  After dinner, we did the usual “buy and quickly blow” the cards for gaming.  Caden had a spectacular time; he is such a nice kid.

     On Saturday, we had scheduled a family breakfast with Bev, Mom, and Dad.  Curt had to leave the house around 5:30 AM to go to some officiating thing where he was a mentor.  After breakfast, we did some light chores for Mom and Dad.  We cut down some branches from behind the larger shed, replaced the plastic covers to the window wells on the north side of the house (from damage that resulted because of a recent hailstorm), and weeded and tidied up the garden (B’s part).
