suture removal

here's steve yesterday, all 43 pounds of her. kara just left with her to get her stitches removed. it's been 2 weeks since they opened her up and took out her ovaries or uterus or whatever. i remember thinking, when we learned that the stitches would be in for 2 weeks, that those 2 weeks would feel like a long time when they were going on but that when they were over it would seem as if they passed quite quickly, and that's how it was.

she starts her remedial education course next week, on tuesday. kara goes back to work tomorrow and i go back sunday. eliot came downstairs and spent the night with us last night, and it had been several nights since he'd done that, so that was nice. and i slept pretty well.
