Rich's Office

Enter at your own risk!

If you can't find Rich, this is the first place to start looking. He constantly has the creative juices flowing. There are scrap pieces of paper throughout the house with toy designs drawn on them.

Rich is working on his next creation. His new found love is scuplting in wax with a wax pen.

Can you say Toy Obsession? Never let Rich into Toys R' Us with a pocket full of cash. You are better off sending a child into a candy store. It never ends well.

Check out Rich's High-Tech Lathe.

Custom Exhaust fan to clear out the toxic fumes. No need to kill off any more brain cells sniffing chemicals.

Frostbite's Table Manners

Frostbite (Her Royal Highness) has decided that she wants to eat at the adult table with everyone else. She will do almost anything to get her treats. When the cupboard door opens, she comes running.

Welcome to Vermont Winters. Most of the snow fell in the last week and will probably be sticking around for a few more weeks a least. This is only the beginning. Now you know why Rich has been wishing for a snow blower for Christmas.
Where are the snow suits and boots. Maybe we can go sledding down the playset slide.

Oops! Some one forgot to put away the grill and pinic table. Guess we will have to wait until Spring thaw comes.
I think that we are snowed in for the winter. Hopefully we gathered enough food and toilet paper. How do those bears do it?

Hanging out with the Rehab Gang

Here is a pic of the Seals lounging for the night. To protect the boaters, the city build special docks for the seals. There were hundreds of them. Too bad it was night and I could not get a better photo.

We spent a couple of nights out on the town. We rode the trolley down to Pier 39 and ate dinner at a wonderful Italian restaurant. You could hear the seal even inside the restaurant.

I had to hold on for dear life as we sped through the streets of San Francisco. The Trolley stopped long enough to snap this shot.

Everyone gathered for the final speaker and I took one last photo and gave many hugs.

ARN Conference

In Oct 2008, I attended the Association of Rehabilitation Nurses Annual Conference. I presented a poster regarding Patient & Family Education for survivors of Traumatic Brain Injuries. It was great experience and I received so much positive feedback from my colleagues. I was recently invited to write an article based on the poster in the Rehabilitation Journal, which is circulated nationally.
