Ketch-up Day

 

 

I trust this post finds you well.

For those of you who have kindly inquired about my grandson, here's a surgery update:

The little guy was wheeled into surgery around 9:30 a.m. and was back to his room around 6:30 p.m. So it was a deal. He did great. Though, there was one slight hitch. The next morning when they did a scan, they found a loose screw floating near the surface of the skin that they had to go back in and retrieve.

He is building his strength back up and can take a few steps on his own. They are planning on heading home this week.

I'm a believer in collective goodwill making a difference, so thank you. For the positive energy, good thoughts and prayers.  It's very much appreciated.

AND

I received surprises in the mail this week.  Thank you so much, Denise .

If you're looking for Christmas gifts, stocking stuffers or ornaments, you might take a gander at her gratitude store.  The sleds (Christmas ornaments) are especially cute as you can see below.

Did you know, yesterday was National Take A Hike Day?

Hi Sandra - your grandson's news is so good ... all the best to him and the family as they return home. Yesterday - I could suggest a few people who could take a hike!!! Cheers from a getting chillier UK - Hilary

That's good news about your grandson.
Take a hike can mean to go away, but in this case I guess it means to take a long walk.

Great news on the grandson front, Sandra. We are rooting for him north of the border. When I take a hike later today I will think of him and asks all of Nature to join in sending best wishes. David

You are correct, Andrew. Though, it does strike my funny bone to have a National Take a Hike Day. Heh.
