Interesting Times Ahead

There's been alot of testing and uncertainty around our lives lately.  Hmmm...I guess that is sort of what frequently exists for us. 

Anyway, Cameron's leg has been bugging him ever since his accident and there has always been the issue of the MRSA lurking under one of his plates.  Well, we're finally getting it taken care of in a couple of weeks.  They'll remove the plate and clean out the infected tissue.  He doesn't need the plate any more, anyway.  It will be outpatient surgery and so he'll be  home recuperating a little while (we haven't been given the post-surgery specifics yet).

His leg discomfort isn't going to go away with this procedure, but at least we won't have to worry about the infection anymore.  Yeah!

His boss is thinking about moving him to a desk job some time soon.  He's been reworking their website to supplement the cut in pay that was delivered in January.  They have, also, been cross-training him to do service writing-basically being the go-between for the customer and the mechanic, writing up the cost estimates, etc.  That may be what they have in mind for him, we'll see.  Either way, it's a tight family-like company and they really want to keep him, so we're not worried about his future. 

I'm still working at the mall part-time.  Saturdays are very busy-we pierced a lot of ears yesterday!  I don't like doing the little babies-they cry and it just pulls at my insides.  Especially when they give me that look like "I'm going to remember you for the rest of my life!"  Poor things, but they get over it quickly, and then I have to make them cry again when I do the other ear!  Most of the babies are about 3 months old.

I'm going to be doing some sales for a local company that I like.  I'll only make commission, but it's some additional income for us.  That is keeping me busy alot of the time.  I'll be meeting a lot of local people and that will be fun.

I'll keep you posted as to Cameron's recovery.
