288 Days

After 288 days, Dr. House finally said *the boy* can walk unassisted! To say he was ecstatic and I am relieved is an understatement. This has felt like a lost year and he's ready to basically start over for reals this time. Get a job, get a place, have fun and give me back a little space. Me? I'm looking forward to some space and a "normal" dating relationship. I hope it all happens fast! So tired of being patient and playing the "wait and see" card!

Just so happy he can walk normally. 288 days!!! That's a long time! Thanks to everyone who extended good thoughts and healing mojo and put up with my crankiness and whining throughout. Seriously...so appreciated!

To celebrate, we went to San Mateo Prime for a wonderful steak dinner. I am stuffed!! This little restaurant serves out food that is on the same level as House of Prime Rib in the city...without the panache. Salad...yum! Steak...yum! Sides...Yum! Desserts...those can use some work but you're there for steak anyways. The best part is I have leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I *love* leftovers!

Sushi crawl yesterday got cancelled at the last minute. One of my co-workers forgot he had a meeting after work. So bummed! We were both looking forward to it. Instead we just grabbed a quick meal, suffered from food coma and I stitched half-heartedly on my exchange. Finally done with the stitching and will put it aside for a week before doing the assembly. I always dread the finishing part!

Short post today. The extra yarn for *the boy's* mom's scarf arrived so I better get working on that. Off to knit!

Until next time...
