  • Update to Serene child theme

    Update to Serene child theme

    I was playing around with my Serene child theme and added some style to the image post format. By the way, if you have any name ideas, shoot them my way. “Serene child theme” is so bleh.

  • Farewell, Blockbuster

    Farewell, Blockbuster

    I haven’t been to a Blockbuster in a long time. There used to be one in Muskego, just down the road from my apartment. And then it closed, and I’d have to drive to a different location 15 minutes away. Then that one closed too, and I never rented movies the same way again.

  • School is in

    School is in

    Namine is feeling much, much better today. Heck, that much is evident by her appetite alone. She was feeling well enough for the first time in quite a while to do some schoolwork.

  • An exciting night

    An exciting night

    Namine was feeling much better by the time we got home from the urgent care clinic. At that point, it was quarter of eleven, so we ate our Fazoli’s and put her to bed. She was happy to go.

  • Eye appointment

    Namine had an eye doctor appointment this morning. Going to the hospital is nothing outside of routine for us, and this was just your normal checkup.

  • A fair and a surprise

    A fair and a surprise

    After church this morning, we went to Peppermint Fair, a craft fair going on at the middle school near our apartment. We found someone doing face painting, and Namine asked for a kitty nose and whiskers.

  • At the Auntie Anne’s Pretzel kiosk

    “I want a strawfanade.” “What?” “I mean a strawbanade.” “I’ll say it again, what?” “I meant to say strawberry lemonade, it came out wrong.”

  • Cardiology appointment

    Cardiology appointment

    Yesterday afternoon Namine had a follow-up appointment with her cardiologist. Despite the long road of recovery, her chest incision is finally healing.

  • Getting used to the palatal prosthetic

    Getting used to the palatal prosthetic

    They weren’t kidding when they said Namine would gag quite a bit from the palatal prosthetic. She threw up when Jessica put it in yesterday, although the jury is still out on whether she triggered her gag reflex or if she just worked herself up too much.
