A Stitch In Time...

Today Elliott had another set of X-rays done on his finger and another trip to the surgeon. The broken off bone is still "free floating" in there but the surgeon isn't concerned. He said we could have it removed way down the road if it doesn't re-attach on its own but it is nothing to worry about. The bone will either find its way home or enough will grow back and he won't need it. So the nurse came in and tugged out the stitches. That was a little painful. She almost missed the ones through his nail till Lucie pointed them out! He is still all bandaged and wearing the metal outer splint but it is coming along.

Lucie did a great job Sunday in "big people's church" as she likes to call it. She did a sampling of her Kids Church in the sanctuary and it was good. She does it once a year and in the past, she usually does skits and puppet shows and characters and so forth. But she scaled it way back and was very effective. I was back monitoring the kids in the sound booth (kids do everything when she is on) and it was good to see the adults trying to do the motions to the songs. She is high energy.

After that we went to a new Chinese buffet. Really good and inexpensive. I liked it.

Today it was rainy and windy and chilly. Ashleigh has a game tomorrow afternoon. The Celtics barely pulled off a win tonight hitting a 3 pointer with 2 seconds left! Whew! Elliott and I watched it. Tomorrow I intend to stain the entertainment center we picked up this weekend.
