Hey, Mom. How are you? Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. My company recently moved to a new facility, which has kept me super busy. It’s amazing that a brand new facility still generates complaints from people. Oh well, can’t please everyone.

We’ve had a few outings over the last month. We took Ramsey to see Lightyear, and she was super excited about it. She bugged me all day on Saturday to go see the movie, and she really seemed engaged in most of it. She’s really enjoying going to the theater and restaurants. I guess it beats the car picnics we had during the pandemic.

To infinity and beyond

We got to see the fireworks again from our front yard this year. It seems like they start later and later every year. In fact, right before they started, Ramsey said “Let’s go to bed.” Her poor little eyes were so sleepy, but she pasted a big smile on her face when they started.

I always look so psychotic in selfies.
She was so tired.

We’ve been going through a rough spell with Ramsey lately. She’s been more and more combative and contrary. In fact, she smashed her iPad and the TV we had on the 3rd floor. She’s not getting another iPad, and we’ve basically restricted her from going in any room except her bedroom, her bathroom and anywhere on the first floor. I spoke with her psychiatrist yesterday, and we agreed that after her surgery and recovery, we will up her medication a little if her behavior is still the same.

Hard to think of her being so difficult when she looks this sweet.

Ok, so remember the bat? We hadn’t seen it again since I wrote to you back in June. And then this past weekend I was taking laundry upstairs, and noticed this on one of the steps.

I don’t know how it got there. I had just come down the stairs with Ramsey a few minutes prior, and it wasn’t there. I made Cliff do his manly duty to get rid of it. He said it was stiff, so it’s been in our house for a while. My theory is the cats were keeping it as a toy. I also think one of them may have thrown it on the stairs when playing because I’ve seen those jokesters throwing things in the air to catch when playing.

Well, that seems to be all the news I have for now. Just one more week until surgery. The nerves are starting to take hold.

I love you.
