March madness ... and I don't mean basketball

We've been really busy. Mom had knee replacement surgery on March 14. It's not easy to have major surgery when you're 86. She was released from the hospital on March 17, and went directly to in-patient rehab at Troy Care and Rehabilitation. The therapists there do physical and occupational rehab every day. We had a discharge meeting today with a therapist, social worker, and RN. They agree she can come home tomorrow, though the therapist would like her to stay till Friday. We'll see that she has at-home therapy and outpatient therapy. I think she'll do better at home, because I see some "nursing home brain" symptoms (can't remember what day it is, etc.). Bob and I think her normal routine, plus additional physical therapy, will be better in the long run. And, my brother is arriving tomorrow night. He can work with her at home as well.

Now, about our "spring." What spring, you say? We had another 5 or so inches of snow last night. What's up with that? Everyone is eager for spring to really arrive.

Bob dressed as Steve Jobs (and he's using an iPhone 4S to boot).

We were at Tractor Supply and saw baby ducks ...

and baby chicks. Too cute.

Isn't this pathetic? These are my daffodils, complete with icicles in the background.

And one last word - and this is about basketball. Kansas beat my Tarheels, so I'm sulking. :)
