Tax Time Entertainment




We splurged on some family fun when we got our taxes back. We're justifying it by saying that its exercise! I've never been a big advocate of video games, especially for kids. I think there are much better things to do than to sit punching buttons, but the Wii has been great fun for all of us, and it gets us on our feet! Tucker is a champion bowler and beats the tar out of mommy and daddy. Mike and I are big fans of the boxing--its the most exercise I've gotten in awhile!! Mike hasn't been able to play too much since he hurt his back though.
Speaking of Mike's back.....on Friday, we finally got a referral to ortho and a CT scan. Today, ortho referred him for an MRI, which will be later this week. He's cleared to do what he feels comfortable with, and to let his pain set his limits. The PA he saw does think there was a little something on the CT scan that looked like a herniated disc, but we'll know more after the MRI. Overall, Mike is feeling a bit more mobile, just sharp pains when he moves the wrong way. He is off of his meds so that he can drive though. We'll keep you updated!
