Finishing off my lost month

What all can I say - it's been a hell of a month.  Moose ended up needing surgery on his neck (he's doing much, much better now, thanks to Doctor Skinner), I spiraled down a little more, Mom has left for Utah for a couple of months, and I'm going to spend the summer trying to get my A1C back under control - without gaining any weight back, hopefully.  I promised Mom that I would blog every day so that she could feel comfortable being gone - so, this is the first one.  I'm hoping future blogs will be more edifying (or at least more fun to read.)
