Knee Update

Craig's Knee

It has been about a month since Craig started his physical therapy for issue with his knee and unfortunately he said that it’s more painful now than it was before he started. You can see where the “crack” is in his x-ray. The doctor told him that it’s common for this to happen but it’s not common for the piece to be so long.

He had a follow up appointment with the doctor last Friday and has been put on an additional type of PT for two more weeks. I’m not exactly sure what it’s called, but I know it involves wires and a device that has a dial that goes from 1 to 4. The doctor took his x-ray to the surgeon, who said that he would not touch it and that he should see a surgeon that specializes in knee injuries. So after the two weeks of PT he will have to get an MRI done so a different surgeon can look at it and see what has to be done. We will let everyone know when we know more.

Changing Again

// March 10th, 2010 // No Comments » // General

Just like any female I change my mind, a lot. I have again changed my mind about our website. It is always a problem for me to determine what direction to take our website. I’m always wondering if I should keep it online, if I should keep it only personal or make it personal and creative. I know, the things I have to worry about.

While browsing my hosting control panel I saw that I had the option to register an additional domain for free. So I began playing around with possible site names and as luck would have it the one I wanted was available. I was excited to get things going on my new site, but as fate would have it, it got put on the back burner and it wasn’t until I got the email to let me know that it was expiring that I got the urge again to get it online. Of course I would first have to decide if it was worth keeping it. After talking with Craig we decided to re-register the name and see what I could do with it.

What does that mean for CK Central? CK Central will go back to just being our personal website. So you’ll be able to read about and see photos of our crazy adventures through life. Assuming that I update the site on a regular basis. If you want to see all of the crafty stuff that I am doing or have done you will need to go to the new website at… www.karenasdesign.com. Hope to see you there!

Yay for Us

I know that this is a very small feat, but you know it’s the little things that matter the most! You might be asking yourself, what is it that she is so excited about?, my response to that would be “It’s all about the lights!”.

Taking full advantage of the wonderful weather we had this weekend Craig & I were able to get our Christmas lights up on the front of the house, of course they won’t be turned on until the day after Thanksgiving, but just the fact that we were able to get them up without freezing is enough to make me happy!

We also decided to replace last year’s lights with LED lights in hopes to keep the electric bill at a minimum. I’m still not sure how I’m going to feel about the bluish hue our cool white lights will have compared to the warm white ones, but since we couldn’t find the icicle lights in warm white we had to go with the cool white. I suppose we can go back to regular lights next year if I don’t like them.

To Blog or Facebook

// November 2nd, 2009 // No Comments » // General

One day I got a friend request on the Facebook account I created and forgot about. It all started rather innocent and then it turned into a full fledged addiction. I was updating my status all the time with stuff that I’m sure nobody even cares about, like.. went to lunch with the hubby and had a turkey sandwich. In the mean time our blog was being left to collect dust, missing birthdays, special events and lots of cards. As luck would have it I have become bored with updating my status, but I do still use Facebook to see what everyone else is doing. *insert recording here…:)* I am really going to make an effort to update our blog more regularly. I’m even going to try to get some new photos in our gallery. Wish me luck!
