Phew!

OK, I got through the chapters that needed more figures added to them. The rest of the chapters appear to be an editing breeze. Knock wood. It looks like I will survive the next two weeks after all.

The ants seem to be having a marathon around our living room moulding. March march march! Marching ants! Hey! Maybe I’m just imagining them. My Photoshop marching ants have just manifested themselves into real live ants. I’m not sure this should give me comfort… Tom sees them too and he seems pretty sane most of the time.

Oh, and Tom won’t be having surgery this week. His doc had talked about it yesterday and it sounded like it was probably going to happen. His Radial bone is 2 milimeters away from where it should be, it’s shifted 1 milimeter in the last 3 or so weeks. His doctor said she would meet with the orthopedic surgeon and see what he thought. Today we got a call saying they want to see how he does with physical therapy before they explore the possibility of surgery. They say there’s no difference in doing it now as opposed to doing it later. So he gets his cast off in three weeks and moves into a brace. Hopefully he will be fine. It would stink if he had to go through a second round, but if there’s a possibility that he can avoid spending the rest of his life with metal parts, it’s worth the wait.
