I got a call from the school day. Navy fell at the skating rink and is complaining that his arm hurts.
He would be in the nurse’s office with an ice pack and could I please come get him to have his arm checked out.

First Day of School
I’ve been excited for, and dreading, the first day of school. I’m sending both kids off this year.
Navy is in kindergarten. It is hard to believe that he is in school. Not just preschool. Real school. All day, five days a week.
Class of 2029
The Final Ortho Update
After a LONG three weeks of a walking boot (less if you factor in that he figured out how to take it off and put it on when I wasn’t around), Navy no longer needs to wear his walking boot!!
The doctor even joked that he didn’t need to see him anymore for this injury, but wouldn’t be surprised if he saw him in the future. He knows Navy too well…
We celebrated by having a delicious ice cream sundae, and he was finally able to wear his new Paw Patrol snow boots (even though we still don’t have snow).
Glad to get that wrapped up before our insurance deductible renews!
Ortho Update
Navy was upgraded to a walking boot.
After a LONG two weeks in a hard half-cast, Navy’s foot has heeled enough to use a walking boot. He won’t have to use his walker anymore, and he can take it off to take a bath!
He goes back to Fort Wayne Orthopedics in 3 weeks. Hopefully we’ll graduate to wearing both shoes again!
(It would also be nice to get this wrapped up before insurance deductibles start over again in January.)
Big Rick’s BBQ
One of our goals for 2016 is to eat at more locally owned restaurants. Today, while running errands, Navy and I decided to get an early start on that.
We stopped at Big Rick’s BBQ on Hobson.
We both ordered the wings special with an extra side of mac ‘n cheese. The wings were delicious and messy. The coleslaw was creamy and tangy. I had two helpings (mine and Navy’s). Navy really liked his mac.
The café itself is kind of small, only seating about 20. There’s a patio, but December is usually a little too chilly to use the patio. I can see at peak hours that seating may be an issue, but they do offer carry-out.
