Happy New Year all!

Instead of our usual Eve GTG with our close friends right up the street, the kids and I are hanging out with my wife at the hospital. At least until they kick us all out. She was admitted yesterday morning with a yet-to-be-diagnosed swelling in the tissues in her neck which made it hard to breath. Many blood draws and tests, a CT scan, Infectious Disease Doc, lymph nodes clear, WBC where it should be, no fever, but so far nothing although they have been giving her heavy doses of IV antibiotic and the swelling is down some. She's up and about, had enough $h!tty hospital food that was tough to swallow for several reasons. She did enjoy the smuggled in sundae, though!

Hoping she gets out tomorrow. Our friends are DVRing the ball drops and we'll get together this weekend for the celebration. Probably an early bedtime for me tonight.
