Cast off day

Well, yesterday was Valentine's day, I hope everyone had a good time. Yesterday was also "cast off day" for Mike - finally! After 8 long weeks Mike was finally able to shower without a plastic bag over one arm. They x-rayed his wrist, and as it turns out, he STILL has a hairline fracture on one of the bones, so they had to fit him for a removable brace. He has to wear it when he is in large groups, during any kind of activity, and while he sleeps to protect it from being rebroken. At least this is one he can take off and his skin can start to turn a normal color again. Not much else new to report, school is going well, getting more and more difficult as we go along, but I guess that is expected. I am keeping up with all the assignments, and I think that is going to be the key to success in this course. Zach is doing well, keeping busy hanging with his friends - they grow up way to fast! It looks like the cold weather has left us, it was nice having to put on a jacket for a few days, wish it hadn't disappeared so quickly. I hope everyone is well, and I will post again when there is something to tell!
