BuccoBerg Blog: June 2012
http://buccoberg.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 23, 2012. It's almost the end of June now and I thought I'd give you another update on our medical situation. First off, we're all still alive, which is something to be thankful for. I realize that the long update could have suggested otherwise. Her next radiotherapy is scheduled for October and we hope that this one will clear it completely. And Futura is doing great. Lots of bumps and scratches and leg bruises, as with any kid who loves running around and playing. First and forem...So, t...

Friday, July 08, 2011. I explained the Italy 2011 trip already in the BabyBlog (which will have to be renamed very soon). A few other pictures, these were taken just before the wedding started.:. This picture was actually taken by Futura. Granted, she gets lucky sometimes, but overall she is improving steadily. Oh, I have to say, upon returning and checking my account statement I discovered four transactions that weren't mine. Yep, someone, somewhere, got my credit card info. It's my unexpert opi...The i...

Thursday, April 07, 2011. Thought I'd update everyone on the situation as of late:. A bit less promising for the knee. The Orthopedic surgeon suggested surgery to tighten up the ligament graft that is now 15 years old (and has been re-injured several times). As he put it, this could prolong knee replacement by 10 years (i.e. from 5-15 years to 15-25 years). So, my year of medical treatment continues. I kind of feel like a car going through a mid-life checkup/maintenance at the garage.

Sunday, June 27, 2010. A new bathroom floor and a bit of clean up really spruce the place up. Yep, the builder came by the other day. It's work that should have been finished several months ago but this kind of lateness kind of typifies the relationship. For example, Friday, he was supposed to arrive at '1-ish' so when, at 2:30, I had not heard any word from him, I sent a text proposing we reschedule. Almost immediately I received a reply saying they'd be there in 5 min? Turnabout is Fair Play.

Sunday, February 21, 2010. It was an unexpected, snowy awakening today. Quite rare in recent times, I believe, for the UK to have snow at the end of February. It continued snowing for about half the day and then stayed. Even now there has been little sign of melting. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Designed by Wordpress Web Hosting.

In the local paper. Sunday, January 17, 2010. Utility Fog Press had a small blurb in Friday's edition of the local paper regarding our newest anthology Assassins' Canon. It's posted below. I won't say more except to reiterate that you can order it from the Utility Fog Press website. Download £4.99, print £9.99 S&H). In the end, it only took 1 night. Sunday, January 17, 2010.

BuccoBerg Blog: October 2011

Friday, October 28, 2011. The Anterior Cruciate Ligament. The ACL is a ligament (tissue that joins bone to bone) in the centre of the knee. It's primarily responsible for stablizing the knee, especially with regards to twisting motions. ACL injury/tearing is quite common, especially among athletes, as you notice if you ever tear yours- suddenly you're surrounded by people who have been in the same situation. My own injury was due to a slight contact on the side of the knee during sport when I was 26.

Wednesday, April 14, 2010. It was Rosaria's birthday a few days ago. For now we just did something small: a cake and a friend over. Although, undoubtedly, it will be extended like Futura's with friends visiting in a few weeks. So, here is her cake, fully decked-out (I had permission to put this picture up). Here Futura is helping mom blow out all the candles. Still, overall a relaxing evening of chatting and eating and watching Futura get cake everywhere. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Back to the Grind.finally. Friday, September 24, 2010. Well, we're back in the routine after the summer *break*: nursery, work, colds. Our yard looks like a jungle, but the rain rarely lets up enough for cutting. We did buy a weed-whacker recently to help carve a path to the sidewalk. We did a few trips in August, with friends to Llandudno, Wales for a weekend, and to Italy for a week to see the new beach house. Here are a sampling of pictures. Llandudno, from the tram going up the Greater Orme. Subscrib...
