A few weeks down the road

I think life just keeps getting worse. My family all hates each other. my basement flooded running all the floors we just put in two years ago, i broke one of my sewing machines, the stove quit, two computers were fried when we were cleaning up from the flood, and i cracked my big fish tank, it froze last night and i forgot to drain hoses and turn the hot tub on so i can only pray all is well. I pray things can get better, I need to get a job to help pay on the over whelming bills. I didn't take any pictures because it is all too depressing. just when we were getting ahead. With the house a mess every one here is fighting. I'm tired i can only pray for help.

Daneyl and Doran's trip to washington

sorry to say i dont have pics of doran just on the video camera.

A Great Weekend

We had a great weekend, danyel and Doran flew up for Lu's wedding it was so good to see them. it was too short though. the wedding was nice. doran took lots of good pictures. Danyel was a great help. it was so good having them come. I know i would have got through without them but it was so nice them being here. all my kids were a big help. I do have to say i hope the next wedding we have more time to prepare. that was nuts. we have all been swomped thats all we needed throughen into the mix. thats life so now we move on. well gotta get back to work have a great day

slowing down

Last week i hurt my arm working to hard. so i get to take it easy for 2 weeks. maybe i will get some things done i want to do. i have a quilt to finish for a lady and sister brower is coming over today to work on her quilt. i can work on genealogy yah and rest. thats all i get to do light stuff.

Why is it i always feel like I'm paddlibng up stream

I'm sure it is all to make me a stronger person. I thought winter was time to realaxe not around here we are not done with Josh and Lisa's yet and there are so many things that need done around here. what can i let go so i can do some things i want to do. I would like to start taking some accounting classes in what time well i need to organize my life. today i worked on some genealogy with danyel i've been wanting to do that for awhile now. the i cleaned my whole house. made a nice dinner and played a game with brandi, jeff and 2 friends. we had a great time. i need st start making my to do list again. well all have a great day.

Here i am i didn't fall off the face of the earth

Sorry it's been so long. Life! I want it to slow down. I know some of you think that I do a lot, but it seems as though I never really get to catch up with all I have to do.

I still don't have my mother in laws Christmas stuff sent. The snowmen cards I sent I had my daughter Megan make them (I'm not creative enough to come up with the ideas for all of them).

Suzzy thank you for the wonderful thank you note it really lifted my spirit.

I didn't even get to put up my Christmas houses this year. That made me sad. I really enjoy them. We have been so busy helping our son (Josh) and with other things I put it off. Then I didn't know if it was worth all the effort for a few days. Danyel tells me yours is just gorgeous Suzzy.

We had all the kids here for Christmas except Danyel, Doran and PJ. We played games and had a good time. I'm sad that the holidays are over but I'm also ready for the new year.

Jeffrey and I are taking a family history class at church. We are enjoying the class but fail to do our home work (Not good).

Well that all that is new here. Missing you all. Have a great day

Life in the fast lane

I don't remember if i told you we are helping our son Josh and lisa renivate tier rental house. what a night mare. but we are on the up hill climb. we painted this week. next week tile. but today was a slow day and brandi and i went shopping. we went to an eastate sale and had a great time. we really enjoyed being togather. it felt good. i think she has been needing this for awhile now.
