How’s your weekend going? We’ve been doing a lot around the house to get ready for an event later this week (more on that soon), but it’s been nice to have a calm weekend at home.

Also, for those of you wondering, I am now 18 days post-op and am feeling ok. It’s taking me longer to bounce back from the surgery than I’d like, partly due to the nasty infection I got in the incision in the back of my head. But that’s about healed now, and my face is bruise-free, so that’s a plus. I’m still having the constant headache, but that’s *hopefully* due to the surgery and will subside in the next couple of weeks. I’ll keep you posted! :)

Now, onto the best links this week…
