Thyroid, oh my!

So I was diagnosed with a hyper-active thyroid a couple of weeks ago. That was a fun day. They put me on bed rest for 10 days or so and I couldn't leave the house. Walking around the house was enough to put me short of breath.
I am happy to say now that I am getting my energy back (due to a few new pills) and was able to finish the Cherry Festival parade! I wasn't able to play in the 4th of July parade in Marquette because I didn't have my energy back yet, so we brought Piper up to Marquette with us and she walked some of the parade with me. :) Every step you could hear, "Aww... did you see that dog?" from the sidelines. She loved it. :) It's also nice that she wasn't scared of the pipes or the drums. Why, you ask? Because she is named Piper! Here is Matt and Piper on the way home from Marquette.


We have also been busy working on the house, now that I have my energy some-what back. I like working on the house, so those 10 days where I was confined to the house without being able to do anything were pretty torturous.

Here is Piper after her bath the other day... I just like this photo. :)
