    Piper has been doing better and better. Today, her oxygen came down to 35%. She has been getting full feeds and has been super playful. In addition to visibly feeling better, Piper will have one of her favorite nurses for the next couple of days. If she continues at the current pace, it is likely…

    A bit late this week, I know. But I was a little bit preoccupied on Monday, with some more pressing issues. Thursday afternoon is better than never, though. Right? One of the cool things about having a significant other, is being exposed to music, movies and other cultural items that you may have never known…

    Even though this shot of Reagan is small, look how cool it is that both of her feet are off of the ground. She is flying.

    Piper, although clearly still in need of lots of rest and recovery, was acting a lot more like her usual self, yesterday. I took the day off, and Reagan didn’t go into work until 1. So, we were both able to spend a lot of time hanging out with her. It was so fun to…

    No sooner, had I published the early post about Piper, than I received a call from the nurse practitioner on duty at Wanaque, saying that Piper’s condition had worsened and that they were going to send her to the ER at St. Joe’s in Parsippany NJ. I begged her to do everything that she could…

    Warning: this post contains some negativity. Reagan and I have been trying to maintain a positive outlook regarding Piper’s new home. Of course it is always going to be an adjustment, going to a new place. There is new staff to meet, new procedure, idiosyncrasies etc.. It has been about a month now, and Piper…

    We had a pretty good weekend, considering that it was supposed to continue to rain all day Saturday. Apparently, mother nature was able to get it all out of her system early that day, because it actually shaped up to be a pretty nice little weekend, weather-wise after Saturday morning.

    Today is absolutely beautiful outside. I took a little stroll this afternoon, down to the BPC promenade, and shot a couple of pics along the way. This one is my favorite. Fixie, green Yankees jerz, fully tatted, looking right at me. Let’s hope that this nice weather continutes all weekend. Reagan and I are running…
