@Wildfire: Already?! omgosh, I thought he'd get through winter with that 'prove mom wrong' attitude and say "it wasn't that bad. snow is great" XDDD
I am in a part of Wyoming where snow is gorgeous and isn't terrible because the view and winter sports are worth it. Cx [not that I'm ever outside]

My mom got her cast off and she gets a boot with minimal weight. She's bummed, she really thought she'd get to put full weight back on and proceed with life like it never happened. lol!

@Koah: lol! He's usually got plenty of that attitude, but apparently he keeps getting the tractor stuck in the snow and it's ticking him off XD (but he doesn't know the terrain and can't decipher it covered in snow the way it is, so that's half his issue). He's sent plenty of photos and it's lovely... wide open plain, covered in snow, mountains in the background. Of course, what's not showing in his photos is the cow piles, etc. XD I'm sure your view is better overall :3 XD

LOL at your mom not wanting to take baby steps to re-strengthen that leg/foot/ankle! ... but I also get it. I hope she doesn't push too much, too soon and end up taking a step backwards!

@Wildfire: That terrain almost sounds like my area in central Oregon, but my house/area has waaaaay less snow. XD A brisking here and there and rare snow dump which clears up within a week.
My mom lost muscle strength by being off her leg for 7 weeks. Cx and although, she's in a medical profession, she 'forgot'.

I'm groggy this AM as well. Making coffee, hopefully that'll help. I passed out on the couch last night, tmj is comin' back strong in my jaw. /dangit/

@Wildfire: Seems like she'll have another week or two with assisted help and then she can start hoppin' around on her own after that.
This late morning, I find out if most of the staff is being laid off at my job. XD Sounds like they will [trying to be sneaky with info], I've been in management a couple times and once with a failing company.
I'm finally using my dental insurance through my job now too. XD beautiful timing.

omg! so much snow out there! Come spring it's going to be... ooof, so muddy.

@Wildfire: I think so too, my mom is likely going to push herself rather hard for the next week to build up that muscle again.

On a good note, I only have 5 kids today instead of my typical Thursday of 7.

@Wildfire: nope definitely not. She's a workaholic. XD
I have a dentist appt today, they'll be doing work on some of my teeth. :T It's about time I get some holes fixed. But I'll have a numb face after my appt. Cx

I get feeds on my Facebook for cons in my area, and that was one of them lol. It's funny you say Ocala is known for horses because the convention was IN the World Equestrian Center, which is also where the last anime con was of a different name lol. I never plan on getting autographs because they don't mean as much to me as just getting to hear about the actor and having them answer questions from us, even silly ones. So I usually get that done by sitting through panels. I should probably further support the actors by standing in line at their booths and asking something of them, since each action supports them financially. None of them get royalties for their work, which I'm not sure if you know, but they get paid by the hour of what they actually put in the studio. I'm just not a huge fan of standing in line in case I miss other things going on, and I really like taking my time in artist alley. I don't think I've ever left a con early for lack of things to do.
