I AM back!
We went to see White Christmas and also to see Shear Madness. For WC we were too close, if you can believe that...........plus there was this dude sitting right in front of me whose head was as wide as his shoulders!!! So at intermission, we moved back, only 1/2 the theater was filled-this was a matinee. The show was great, the singing was great and the production was fabulous. What was NOT great was the $22 fee for parking at the Kennedy Center PLUS a $20 fee for parking at the hotel. YIKES! Bethany Beach living has spoiled me/us!!!!
Shear Madness was fun as well. This was our 3rd time to see it. It is starting its 25th year and it's a murder mystery that depends on audience participation. It is always changing in that they include current events (usually politics) and the outcome is based on audience vote. They finish out the play based on the actor most voted for by the audience as the murderer.
We had a nice dinner on day 1 with out son and his girlfriend. She has been in his life for 6 months or so and this was the first time we met her. We both liked her very much. It was a relaxed dinner and everyone seemed to have a good time. Ryan is not sure where this will go. Ellen is studying to become a speech therapist and finishes up her masters in May. Her family wants her to move back to CO. She has been in DC for 3 years now. He has lived here all his life and is not interested in moving so far away. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. She just hadn't better hurt him, my baby!!!!:mad::mad:
Tomorrow is the day for Bailey's knee surgeries. :(:eek: (Or would that be knees surgery?) I so hate for her to have to go through this again:eek:...if ever there was someone who could empathize with her, it's me!!:(
My pt is still ongoing and seems to be so very slow. I'm hanging in there, though. It's just taking so long to get strength back.
Ryan and I thoroughly enjoyed the Redskins game last week. As usual, they had to take it down to the last 15 seconds to win it, but it was sure fun. I returned home the next day and Bob & I had a quiet, happy New Year. Unfortunately, I did not so enjoy yesterday's Redskins loss. It started out great with two quick touchdowns, but then it fell apart. Still, they had a great season, finishing top of their division. It's a HUGE improvement from how it has been for the last ten years.
Well-as usual, I should be in bed. HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my Cush friends.
Love,
Sus, Susan, Bailey's mom
Your trip sounds very exciting! Well, except for the dratted pay parking. Ugh. I hate how expensive that is.
Good luck tomorrow with Bailey! 5am! Rise and shine! bright eyed, bushy tailed
hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin
It's 5 am, wheres the car? I have my coffee, do you have Miss Basiley?
Ok off we go:)
Everything will be just fine, Sus. Bailey will come through her knee surgery just fine.
Dang, it is cold this morning!!!!!!! Wait, let me grab the newspaper and my iphone. Okay, we are OOOOOFFFFFFFFFF:D:D:D:D:D
Can we stop for muffins?

Well, we DID stop for doughnuts. Did you get yours or has Marie Irene eaten all the rest? I had TWO twists! MMMMMMMMnnnnnnnnnnummy!
Where the vet surgeon is is right around the corner from where we got Bob's car, so we went by there after leaving Miss. B, and exchanged our car for a loaner (nice service that they have.) So, it's the same model car, but newer.........and I think a bit more basic........I'm not sure. It took FOREVER to warm my seat and thus my butt!!! That was a 5 hour round trip and my knees were NOT happy.
Silly Bailey was playing with her rubber doggie bone that is the size of her head, at 4AM! :eek: She thought this was great fun. Bob chose not to give her 1/2 a Dramamine and had I realized that earlier, that would have changed. BUT!!!! She did NOT get car sick. :D Her little nose was wet and cold all the way there. For about 1/2 the ride, she dozed on my chest. ;);) I started humming to a song that was on the radio at one point and she raised her head, as my throat was next to her ear, and she looked at me like....".do you think you could stop doing that??! I'm trying to sleep here.":rolleyes:
I am still waiting to hear how it went. I think it was going to start around 10:30..........and you are right Addy............it was indeed very cold this AM. BUT!!! ......... We are supposed to have two days this weekend of sunny and mid 60's. I LOVE IT!!!!!
Keep thinking positive thoughts!
Love,
Sus
Hi Sharlene.....thanks for stopping by!
-S
thinking positive thoughts as i peek while at work to see if all is okay
The surgeon called around 12:30. The surgery went well, Bailey is doing fine and we can probably take her home tomorrow afternoon. He said one of the pins he put in last time, in one leg, had started to move around and it was starting to collect fluid. He removed it as she no longer needs it. The other pin in the other leg was left alone because it is behaving itself. He explained how the scar tissue had caused the knee cap to go to the outside now. Originally it was sliding to the inside. He thinks as the scar tissue settled in that it became tighter and thus the problem developed. He is expecting a positive outcome. What he had told us he was going to do was to tighten the ligaments up basically by stitching in a figure eight. That would prevent the knee cap from slipping either way. He did not reference this in the phone call, but I am sure we will get more details when we go get her.
So-relief that it is over. Sorrow that I am not there. Sorrow for her pain. She in no way understood why she could not have bedtime treats last night (no food after 8). She was very perplexed and insistent.:mad: By 4AM, when I got up, she had cuddled up closer than close to me and then put her head on my neck and gave me kisses. She then played with her rubber bone while we got dressed to go, tail wagging all the time. On the way over, the two hour trip, she watched outside for a good while, then as I put my seat way back (Hope I didn't crowd you Addy)-she stretched out and played at napping. ;) Her face was about two inches from my face and every time I opened my eye(s) to look, she was looking back at me! :D
Her trainer just called to see how she was doing. She said she is sending Bailey a little "something."
Are people great, or what?
Love,
Sus
awwww Sus, what a lover and sweetie Little Miss is:D:D:D:D
I know it is so hard when we cant explain things to them. I even read the book "How To Speak Dog" but it didnt help:D:D:D Though I did learn how to ask Koko and Zoe to play with me in dogese;):rolleyes: and it worked too:D:D:D
I know you are anxious to have her back home and she will soon be snuggling around your neck.
Wow, that was a long drive today!!!! YIKES!!! Good thing I had a window seat and those doughnuts:D:D:D:D:D:D
love ya very much girlfriend
Yay, so glad that the surgery went well and the prognosis is good. Bet you can't wait to have little miss back home with you!
hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin
