Time with Mom

I have SO enjoyed having my mother here these past 2+ weeks.  Less than one week 'til she goes home.  I'm also glad my recovery has been quick so we've been able to get out and go places.  We had a day out with the boys and a day out with the girls.  We're trying to get a day out with just the two of us.  Not eating as well as I should with all our excursions, but I'll do better next week!  I'm having virtually no pain and my stoma opening is healing VERY well.  The surgeon only stitched it from the inside, so the outside slowly pulls together and won't get infected.  I'll see him tomorrow for a check up.

I can't believe it's August already.  Our summer just hasn't gone quite the way I'd hoped.  We have gotten two camping trips in and we're hoping to get three more in before the end of October.
