Hello, Tuesday! So, yesterday was my birthday – having a birthday on a Monday seems so mundane… but we got to celebrate on Sunday at my mom’s house with my brother and sisters:

That’s my sister Kimn on the left, Merri in the chair, me hiding behind (still dealing with a sinus infection, so my face and eyes are all puffy), and my brother Mike on the right. I didn’t notice until I uploaded this pic that ironically the pic of us kids as kids is hanging on the wall behind us. Michael and Merri, the twins, were born on December 12th. I know, 3 out of 4 of us in December! Crazy!

And yes, Merri looks so much better, doesn’t she? She still has a long road to go, but she was able to transfer from her bed at the nursing facility to a wheel chair, then from the chair to her daughter’s car, and back to a chair at my mom’s house. She fell out of the wheel chair not long after arriving, though, so for her safety we settled her into a recliner for the duration.

She’s still struggling with verbal communication, and her right side is still paralyzed, though she’s gotten some movement back in her right hand and right foot – baby steps! I’m just so happy she’s still with us, and that she’s making obvious improvements. There will certainly be lots of celebrations with each milestone for sure.

Since I’m once again running late (it’s my birthday, so I can be late if I want to, right? heh!) let’s move on to the funnies, shall we? This cracked me up:

I don’t know what that red phone looking thing is, though – if anyone can enlighten me, I’d be forever grateful!

This is hilarious:

Especially since it took me a minute to compute that it’s a real live cat on his head!

I love this:

I’m sure many (if not all) of you have seen that meme with the white cat that’s been all over the internet – I thought this was hilarious:

This French teacher and Spanish teacher at Notre Dame High School, Chattanooga, TN collaborated on their door decorations this year and totally won Christmas.

This cracked me up:

  1. Somehow when commenting on your post yesterday, i forgot to say Happy Birthday, so today i will wish you many happy returns of the day and the same to your sisters and brother. Let’s hope next year does not involve any need for a dramatic recovery, and i will continue to pray for Merri.

    These were all funny, and Ditto expressed my sentiments exactly!
