He's Almost Back, BABY

Since my son broke his ankle during his hockey game on May 20th, there has been NO hockey for him.................a full leg splint, shorter temp cast, surgery, regular cast, pain meds, crutches, a boot and physical therapy. Today was his FIRST day on skates (roller blades, not yet ice skates, but gotta start somewhere). He did pretty well................they say in about two weeks he should be able to play in a regular aggressive ice hockey game. It feels like forever, but as his fans.............................me, his sister, dad and I are ready to CHEER. Go Ice Sharks and especially #55

Nevertheless, i'm off to work in a few..............stopping for a frappuccino (never liked them, now i do) and then off to workland! TGIF of course. The birds are chirping ( i guess) and the rain from last night is drying up. We had some major storm that came out of nowhere.

SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP

What do you do to fall asleep? I dont know why i've had such a hard time lately, but night before last i didnt sleep at all..........not one hour! kept trying and have things running thru my head, hearing noises, feeling sick, etc etc. it was horrible! had to work all day and when i finally did get to sleep last night i had been awake for about 35 hours. So what? warm milk? hot tea? lavendar bath? something has to work!

We've also had lots and lots of rain around here for days and nights. I know lots of people like the rain and its good for the grass and crops and all that good stuff, but i'm bored of it. I want to sing that rain rain go away song. Its funny here in FL cause in the summer months its either feast or famine with the rain. It either doesnt rain at all, and we have all sorts of water restrictions or this.............all day every day. PST, and i cant find my umbrella!

Happy happy to all my readers..............i wish you good nights sleep and sunny days!
