Cathy's Birthday (2006!)

I've been switching over from my Yahoo! Mail account to my Gmail account lately, and I found some old pictures of Cathy's birthday party several years ago in my old Gmail! I think maybe our friend John Teeples took them, because his wife Sheri is in the pictures and there's an empty chair next to her, but John's not in any of the pictures. (Plus, all the pictures with me in them make me look like a dork! On purpose, you say? Perhaps!) She had a Hello Kitty birthday cake and everything:



There's also a picture of Cathy's mom in the mix... she died suddenly about a year or so after this. We miss her very much.

Haircuts

Tonight Mikey and I got new matching, REALLY SHORT haircuts. After all, tomorrow is the first day of Spring!

(This is possibly the shortest my hair has been in my life, since birth!)

Merry Christmas, Tulsa!

For most of the day today, March 12 2009, it was SNOWING in Tulsa! Generally in Tulsa we don't get snow until after January 1, but it's a little unusual for it to snow this late in the winter. But it did give me a good excuse to do something I've been needing to do anyway... post our family pictures from Christmas! Here they are... or take a look at the whole set here!

        

CPAP: week 1

Last Tuesday afternoon, I finally got my CPAP machine. What the hey is that, you may ask? Well, you may remember that I've been diagnosed with sleep apnea, which means that I sometimes don't get enough air sleeping and briefly stop breathing at night. The most common and probably least invasive solution is a CPAP machine, which helps keep your airway open so you don't gasp for air at night. I think I've become adjusted to the mask itself (which is a big hurdle!) but I'm not quite sure I'm adjusted to the actual treatment yet. I saw an ear, nose, & throat doctor last week, and he basically recommended surgery to clear my airway, which is partly blocked just because of my anatomy (not a growth or anything). Cathy and I haven't yet decided whether to go through with the surgery or whether to continue with the CPAP machine instead; I'll be going back to the E.N.T. doc in a few weeks and then we'll decide on a course of action.

Mikey got his Bear rank!

Last night at the Pack 137 Blue & Gold Banquet, Mikey received his bear badge! He did a lot of work earning it, and had a lot of fun! The blurry picture below is just after he got the badge (blasted digital camera with dead batteries in low-light conditions!)
