Soon....I promise!

Many of you have been asking for new pictures and results.

Next week, I plan on taking and posting new pictures. As far as the results go, our next orthopedic appointment is not until the third week in October, at which time x-rays will be taken. We're going to have to be patient until then. Believe me, I am more anxious than anyone!

Who would of thought...

Olivia got her hair cut yesterday. When we left the salon, she told me that she felt that her hair was uneven. I assured her it was not, as the stylist spent a lot of time on her cut and made certain it was even. I watched her. Olivia then went on to tell me that she forgot to tell the stylist that she has scoliosis. Apparently, during her therapy, one of the therapists told her that when she gets her hair cut, she should let them them know she has scoliosis, so they can be sure that her hair is even.

I would have never thought of this, but it does make perfect sense. It's the little things.

It's finally done!!!!!

.....the room! Here is a before (well sort of before, before we started to paint, but after we got the old paint off) and a finished picture. This room is AWESOME! Olivia came home from camp tonight and it was a total surprise to her. She LOVES it!

Olivia chose the colors for the room. She is very creative. I never imagined it would look as good as it does. The picture does not do it justice!

All we need now is a rolling mirror. Until we find one (or Bob makes one), we'll have to improvise.

And she's gone again!

Now Olivia is at camp for a week. She'll be home Sunday evening. She's in for a real surprise when she gets home! Her therapy room is nearly complete. We have the painting done, and now just have to hang the wall board, mount the mirror and put up the window treatments. The room looks great! What a transformation. Stay turned for pictures, which hopefully will be coming soon.

She's home!!!!!

Olivia is home, safe and sound! She looks great. She has a great tan and looks like she gained a few desperately needed pounds!

Three more days...

...until Olivia comes home! Boy do I miss her! My sister told me she is diligently doing her exercises everyday! The room is moving along.....slowly. Scott still has stuff in there, but he promised me it will be empty by Saturday. I'm not taking bets on that one.

I'm hoping to be able to start the sanding/painting on Monday. I'll post pictures as the progression of the room moves along.

And...I know these posts are boring without pictures, but Olivia has the camera with her in Texas.

It' almost a week....

...since Olivia left for Dallas. She is having a blast. I've talked to her everyday (well almost, I haven't talked to her yet today). I am really missing her.

She is doing her exercises daily. I'm really proud of her. She'll be home next Sunday evening. We'll begin on getting her therapy room set up once she gets home (and Scott is completely moved out. I can't believe he's moving out).
