Grandma Tillie Update

Thanks, everyone, for your healing thoughts and prayers. Gram is doing substantially better. She will leave the hospital today and spend the next few weeks in a rehab center. She is in good spirits except for being frustrated by her weak body. (You know Grandma. She is a work horse. When her body can't do what she wants to do she says things like, "Well I'm not worth a hoot or a hollar anymore.") But she's getting to eat real food, taking short walks, and looking really good (except she definitely needs a house call from Steve, her "beauty operator." Word is that there's a beauty salon in the rehab center, though, so I'm sure they'll do her up right.) Again, thank you all for your well wishes.

(Does it get any cuter than Grandma Tillie in one of her silky, floral kimonos, sneaking cookie dough? Um, no.)

Gram is SO cute. Thanks for the update, Anne (one of many things I meant to ask you about when we chatted the other day, but didn't.) Hope she continues to get better; wouldn't want her feeling like she's not worth a hoot.

You're about to have a baby!!! I'm so excited for you :)

I've enjoyed reading up on your domestic experiences. The aprons are fab and I love Blaine's commentary. I will have to take a look at that blog site to learn new things.
