This past week has been pretty crazy and I'm glad I haven't gone back to work yet. Each month we get a new doctor to be the attending, doctor in charge of Luke, and this past Monday they swapped again. Since we had a new doctor coming on we expected the first week to be relatively uneventful even though we knew there was plenty to do to figure out the best route to take to keep Luke progressing. So much for that though as Tuesday he had a CT scan and then Wednesday he was taken to the cath lab to close one of the pathways in his heart that should have closed on its own by now. The real test of whether that was the right decision will come next week when they lift his paralysis, but so far so good.
There wasn't much news to report for my portfolio although I did close out one position of mine because it just didn't fit the narrative of my portfolio any longer. Actually for a couple months now but I finally decided to close the position. I have some plans for what to do with that capital but any suggestions are always welcomed. As of now I'm looking at investing part of that capital into a REIT and then I'm not quite sure what else I'll invest in. I hope to start getting more stock analyses written over the weekend, but that will definitely depend on whether I end up going back to work or not. The start of a new job is always very hectic and throws my schedule out of whack for a couple days.

I'm back home now and now that means it's back to the grind with our son, Luke. They had him medically paralyzed for about a week to let his body relax and build up some strength and lifted that on Thursday. The unfortunate side effect of...

Quick update this week since Luke is giving me a chance to write a little bit. He hasn't strung together two consecutive good days in the last week but yesterday was good and today has been good so far. We're working on another update on...

My weekly roundup is coming a bit later in the weekend than normal but I'm taking advantage of the time I get with Luke while I can. He's been doing well the last week and it's been so great having him be relatively stable. Especially...

Well I'm sure you noticed that I didn't get a lot of writing done this week. That wasn't for a lack of "want to" but just a matter of lack of time. Monday at the hospital with Luke, Tuesday I headed back to work, Wednesday and...

Another week down! Although this one was rather boring, but right now boring is good. We finished up the last job early Monday morning so I started heading back towards Houston to meet up with my wife at the hospital. Well, go visit her at the hospital....
