Ouch to the shingles and the broken finger!!
One of my coworkers got shingles a few years ago and he was out for about 3 weeks

It sounded pretty terrible.
Judy, I used to play basketball but luckily I only ever got my fingers jammed. That was painful enough! I couldn't imagine breaking one that way. Ouch! She's a brave girl to get through that!
It's my last day of work!!

I'm so busy and stressed though. I don't know how I'll get everything done on time!
Last night I visited with my grandma, and then went out to eat with her, my uncle, my dad, my brother, and the little girls. It was good! I've said it before, but those girls are so well behaved, and their mother has been working out of town during the weeks (internship for her social work degree) and my brother has been parenting on his own. He is a really good dad and it's nice to see him like that with the girls. He'll scold them when they need it, and laugh with them when they need it. I think they are all really lucky that he came into their lives.
Tonight we are going out for food and drinks with a friend of ours. We both used to work with him, and he and Scott have gotten pretty close over the years. It will be nice to see him again! He moved to another province a couple of years ago.
