This is my first Monday home after the holidays and I have a ton of decorations to take down and put away. However, knowing that all of yours are not put away yet comforts me. I haven't even unpacked all of the car yet or our suitcases. What am I like???? It just seems like it is all too big a job to tackle.... so here it is 10:10a.m. and all I've done so far is cuddle with Austin, make breakfast and visit you. I guess I'd better get busy.<br><br>I hope the nurse fixes your ears and all is well. Good luck on writing your talk. I surely wish that I could be there to hear it. I know you will do well.<br><br>Thanks for you sweet comment on my post today. You are so generous with your praise....I know that you are biased but it is still fun to read all the nice things you say...of course you know I feel the same way. I could cut and paste your comments to me back onto your blog and mean every word....but it always makes my heart smile to read the kind things you say.<br><br>Have a good week. I send love. I have missed calling you the past 2 weeks. I look forward to talking to you tomorrow.

We were only supposed to get an inch of snow yesterday - ended up with 4 or 5! It is beautiful tho! Marie - with your ear - I had the same problem a while back. I ended up going to an ENT specialist and he scraped it out. He told me not to use Q-tips, as they can push the wax further down in your ear. Also, to use ear plugs (I got some from Walgreens and can send you some if you would like) when taking a shower. Has worked like a charm so far! Sounds to me as if you have wax right next to your ear drum like I did. Like to have drove me crazy!
