Wednesday was calm

My "big project" at work came to a close tonight shortly after 8PM (only an 11 hour day). The next two days are more normal and I will be able to get home to fix dinner on Thursday and Friday. Then we have a two week Christmas shutdown so that will give me plenty of time to pay attention to our girl.

Mary scrambled eggs for herself tonight but then said they didn't taste good so she didn't eat much of them. She did have a pear and when I got home (almost 9PM), I fixed her hot milk and warmed up the cookies she made when she was feeling good. Some time ago, we bought a Nespresso machine and its companion milk frother "Aeroccino". Well, the Aeroccino is a great little device to make a cup of warm milk in a minute or two. This leads to an evening snack or late dessert of a cup of warm, frothy milk and one or two of Mary's home made cookies. The cookies come straight out of the freezer and head into the microwave to warm them up nicely. The chocolate chip are gone and we are working on the toffee cookies now.

When I left this AM, Mary was still in bed and said her back was hurting. After her morning Celebrex on top of fresh fentanyl patches last night, she reported the back was much better during the day. All in all, another quiet day as a result of the compressed vertibrae coupled with the fentanyl which makes her sleepy.

No word from Stanford so we continue to assume the IR docs don't think there is anything they can do to improve the situation.

That's all for now.
