Kat's Dad: Latest count is that they've found 3 more broken ribs bringing him to a grand total of 14 broken ribs! I can't even imagine the amount of pain he must be in. They are keeping him in the hospital until Tuesday for sure to give his bruised lungs a chance to heal and to get his oxygen count back up. At this point they've decided not to do surgery on the ribs that broke loose because they think that the healing time naturally will be less than the healing time if they cut him open.
Disability: I received a letter this week saying that I have to go in for a mental evaluation. That's the 11th of next month, so I'm figuring that I won't get any decision back on my case until September at the very earliest. I'm not too worried about the eval. Everyone tells me it's pretty standard procedure. At least, I've convinced myself for now that I'm not worried, we'll see how I feel as we get closer to it!
Moving: We're getting down to the deadline! Wednesday is moving day. Really the only big thing left to pack up is the kitchen - and we can't really do that until right before. I also need to go through the bathroom stuff and figure out what I can get rid of because our new bathroom is tiny compared to the one we have now. So my goal for tomorrow is to work on that. I think the hardest thing will be packing up my beads though. *sniff* Not like they are hard logistically to pack, just emotional :P

Hope Kat's dad gets better soon. I broke one rib before and was in huge pain, can't imagine 14.
Hope everything goes smoothly with your application and also your upcoming move. Take care of yourself!
I'm still sending along lots of healing thoughts and prayers for Kat's dad!
I'm sure the eval will go fine. :) Good luck with the move! Are there any art supplies you can leave out while all this is going on so you don't miss the beads while they're packed away?
Thanks for the update on Kat's Dad. He's still in my prayers.
sending you good wishes--healing, disability apps & evals, and moving. You are going to love your new place! whoohoo. no more peeing walls and other disasters.
Continued prayers for all of you!

Hope your eval goes well! It does sound pretty standard from what others are saying :)
And good luck with the move! You'll be so happy in your new place :)
