Day#250
This is a picture of the foot scan done at a shoe store at the Galleria. I think it's apparent I've come to putting little pressure on that dang left heel. I just want to get back to Zumba so bad. Foot get better!

Our friends the Vances were here from Oklahoma this week. The mirror was given to us about a year ago by Matt, so I wanted their picture with it. The mirror is very old and had been in his family for years. It had been badly damaged in one of their moves, but he painstakingly repaired it and then painted to my order. I think it's perfect in our living room.

I have a million screenshots like this, art projects I want to do but I never start them. Summer would seem like a good time, but...

Our birthday gift to the neighbor girls was a shopping day at the mall. They about wore me down, but I found out even young girls' feet get tired out, too.
Here we are in Sephora which was really fun for me, too. We tried out all kinds of makeup.
The girls had fun portraying themselves as my daughters named April, May, and June. No one caught on to the cleverness at Starbucks, but the girl writing their names on the Urban Outfitters dressing room doors sure did.

When Gary got home from scout camp, he noticed I was no longer wearing my wedding ring. I think he might have thought the worst.
But what really happened was a serious issue with my ring. I had it cut off and resized several years ago. The gold that the jeweler rebuilt it with must have worn completely off because I was left with both bands having a sharp, vertical separation.
So one early morning as I was drying my hands with a towel, the ring separated far enough to trap my finger flesh inside and then closed back up tight. I couldn't do anything to get it off or opened back up myself. Luckily, Jack was here with me so I woke him up, but he was so groggy, plus completely confused on how the ring was separated. I think he was picturing it as a space horizontally between the two bands.
Not able to stand it any longer, I grabbed a pair of scissors from his desk to try to pry the two sides apart but that was too difficult one-handed. Then he tried using his Leatherman tool but that was too bulky for the small space. I was about to panic after so many minutes in excruciating pain. He tried the scissors and that worked! The flesh was released and the ring pinched back to where it was supposed to be. Woo, was that a relief. And now I'm not wearing my ring until it's fixed.

Julia was here for a visit! Funny story, Julia had mailed Caroline's birthday card on June 10 in Panama, giving it a week to get here in time for the June 17 birthday. Except that date came and went and the card just never showed up...until the day after Julia got here, July 25. Pretty cool timing, Panama! And happy to say, the $12 cash gift was still inside.
