February 2009

This month was definitely more memorable than January. First, we had a really nice Valentine's Day. Adam made breakfast for us - heart-shaped pancakes. We spent most of the day just hanging out and playing games at home. Then, Adam made pizza and ravioli for dinner, so I didn't have to cook all day! It was a nice break.

I finally started working on the 20th. My first job was a high school P.E. class, so I thought it would be easy. First period went great, and second period started out well, until I jumped up to catch a football, slipped on the wet grass when I came down, fell back, and was at the hospital a half hour later. I ended up fracturing my wrist and tearing some ligaments. I haven't been back to work since it happened because I've been on pain medication most of the time and am STILL waiting to get it taken care of after almost two weeks. It has been very frustrating for both Adam and me since there is quite a bit I can't do with one hand, but the good part is that Adam is learning how to cook and wash dishes and I am learning a little humility.

The month ended with my birthday. It started out with Adam bringing me a bunch of balloons with a note inside each of them. Then, after his long day of school, we went with some friends to Outback Steakhouse. It was a really good day overall.
