Back from Never Never Land
Hola! I spent this past weekend in Gardnerville with friends and family. Beth and I flew up Friday night, went to Lake Tahoe Saturday morning to have lunch with grandpa and then up to Sparks for the "Best of the West" Rib Cook-off. So yummy. So yummy indeed. Had a great time hanging out there with Brad, Kanako, Brad's family, Dan, Rene and their friends and Brett, Sherry and the boys. It was quite a group. After that we met up with Brad and Kanako at Sparky's for a drink before heading back out to Gardnerville.
Sunday was spent at the house at Lake Tahoe. Lots of family and friends there. We got to see Brian and Rene' and little baby Sophia. She's just so damn cute! Beth, Dan and I stayed overnight, got up early Monday morning for breakfast at the "Red Hut" and then headed back to G-ville just in time for mom to drive us to Reno to catch our flight home. It was a rushed weekend, but we had a lot of fun, got to visit with a lot of people, and had great ribs to boot! Can't beat that.
Ankle update: I just completed my third session of physical therapy this morning. That seems to be going well and the PT gave me permission to attempt yoga again tonight. I've been missing this class for quite a while. Looking forward to that. I received paperwork from my doctor yesterday for American which stated a return-to-work date of October 1. That's good news, and I hope we can stick to that. My next appointment with the doc is Sep. 27. Fingers crossed.
However, October is shaping up to be a busy month in terms of potential out-of-town trips, and if I go back to work I'll be on-call, which gives me very little control over my schedule. That's the crappy part about returning to work in October. If I had thought ahead, I could have bid onto reserve (on-call) this month, but didn't think of that until it was too late. Shoot! We may be going to Hawaii next month and would like to take a trip to Wisconsin to visit Beth's family. And, Dan is coming to town at the end of the month. I can't wait to go back to work, but this presents a real challenge. Work will definitely win, however, as I need the money!
