I had my final doctor's appointment and was cleared to return to work on Monday, 1/7 and Dr. Hutchinson said I'd done really well for a full recovery from surgery. (Thanks to my wonderful family!) Ethan was leaving to return to Florence to prepare for classes to begin next week and Joey had his final day of his 7-day break before returning to work on nights. As for Addison, well, she just has a reason to celebrate every day (Drama Queen!). I was really sad about Ethan leaving as he has been a real jewel doing so much for me over Christmas holidays, especially right after my surgery. (Not much fun for him I'm sure to spend his holidays after exams taking care of his mom--but he never complained and drove me all around to do my final Christmas shopping, etc.) Well, we decided it was the perfect time to use the Outback gift card Byron and Susan had given us for Christmas (thank ya'll so much!) and we really ate!!! and ate!!! and ate!!!Can't hardly beat the Bloomin' Onion and the Alice Springs Chicken! YUM! (Now I can begin my new year's resolutions! Ha!)

Valencia, I always feel uplifted after reading your blog because you're so positive regardless of what happens or what you're going through. I know you enjoyed having Ethan home for the holidays, and I'm sure he didn't mind helping you out after the surgery.
We LOVE Outback. Believe it or not, I won $100 worth of coupons from the Sumter Area Chamber of Commerce as a Christmas gift from the college. Most people who won something (door prizes) go $10 only, but I got ten of them! Can you believe it? I couldn't. Anyway, there were about 100 places or more where I could redeem the coupons, but my husband love Outback so much that we ended up spending $70 worth of coupons there. It was well worth it. I can just taste that moist bread right now. Yummy!
