1. Spring is here at last. Yay 2. Bought a flash drive camcorder for getting all my sons toddler moments. Should be fun once I figure out how to use it. Hopefully the instructions aren't too confusing. 3. Having 2 different sets of people thru the house today. Hoping one of them buys it....finally. Its been for sale for months now. 4. Lost 2 1/2 lbs this past week. Only 20 more to go. LOL 5. Just got the book Twilight. After having so many people recommend it to me, I'm finally going to give it a shot. I behind the times. 6. Last night 2 police cars were practically outside my bedroom window at midnight with lights flashing, had a couple guys on the ground, police dog barking like mad in the car....Wish I knew what they were up too.

1. Thought I would post here today, as it's been way too long that I've lurked and not posted. 2. I am living in Spokane now, with my Dad and stepmom, after moving this past weekend. 3. My relationship/engagement with Jim ended very, very badly. 4. This morning, coming down the stairs with my dog Casey in my arms, I missed the last 2 steps and twisted my ankle as I fell and put a hole in the wall at the bottom of the stairs. My ankle is a little swollen and bruised and hurts like hell to walk on. 5. My dad gave me a cane to use so I could hobble around. Just call me Gimp. 6. I am enrolled in the Division of Vocational Rehabilitaion program, where I will get assistance in getting training for a job. I am very excited about this. 7. Spokane is a very beautiful city that I'm very excited about living in, expect for the winters... Ugh. They had like 4' of snow this winter. I'm so glad I wasn't here for that.

4.1 Casey is just fine. He didn't get hurt at all, just a little shaken. He is really scared of the stairs, and my falling with him, didn't help matters. 5.1 Well I concede, gimp isn't a nice word, and I was just trying to be sarcastic and making light of what happened. I've been through hell, and falling didn't help matters for me. 3.1 Jim was arrested for domestic assault against me. That is all I'm going to say about it. Needless to say, I'm a physical and emotional wreck.

1. Hermi, there is no way you are 40! You must certainly be off by a decade. Er, 30, not 50. 2. It's so windy here that Harvey, who only barks when he has reason (like someone coming up to the front door) has been running to the door barking for the last few minutes. The wind is just howling. 3. Was so bad earlier, we kept the girls home from practice. Winds were sustained at 30-40 with gusts to 60. Figured the coach would understand us not sending them, though frankly I'm surprised he didn't cancel it. 4. I have not been able to kick this headache for three days. I'm pretty sick of it. 5. Darren's taking statistics right now in college. He was very very worried about this class...but he thinks its fun and he's enjoying it. Yep, he's one sick puppy. 6. Next week kicks off the birthday overload in our family. One of my middle nieces turns 6. Followed by four family birthdays in May, four in June, two in July, etc etc all the way through November. 7. I am procrastinating right now. Need to fill out my time card and mail it tomorrow and it's a pain to do. 8. Dakota is going to be in a musical next month at school. They've been practicing for months and she's very excited about it. 9. Still have no idea when Caleb's concert is, but I guess the teachers been reorganizing it trying to cut down on the time. The last one was over 2 hours long. 10. Dakota came home from school very excited. She got a 100% on her last math test. She's been working so hard. Last year at this time her goal was to have perfect attendance...this year she's aiming higher, honor roll. She just barely missed it last trimester.

1. Cinnamongirl, congratulations on selling your house!! 2. I've been sick since early March with shingles and then epstein-barr virus. I was home recovering and I've just returned to work part time last week. I expect to be released to return full time starting next week. Not having strength and health was scary for me. It's much better being healthy and able! God bless those who have disabling medical conditions that limits what they can do.

Cinnamon, I'm so happy you got your house sold, and looking for a new one can be quite fun. I pray you find the perfect house for you and your little man. Eggie, I'm sorry you have been suffering from those health issues. You are so right that those of us with disabling health issues is very scary. 1. Speaking of disabling health conditions, my mental health has been suffering quite a lot these days, and hopefully soon, I'll be getting some good medical care that will set me in a better place with my emotions. 2. I grew up as a victim of domestic violence, and never thought in my later years that I would be a victim of that again. This time it hurts even more. 3. Getting back on my feet is taking a lot longer than I want it to. I am trying to hold on to hope that my life will be good again someday.

1. I am giving a paper at the University of Exeter. !/2 of my job is research, so it's fairly easy to cover my classes. 2. I went to Priscilla Queen of the Desert on London's West End on Monday and it was over-the-top fabulous. 3. My coin purse with all my pounds fell off of my purse at the theater, but I went back and they had found it WHEW!. 4. It feels like a crisp fall day, here in jolly old England...and the British breakfast was great. There bacon is different than ours (kind of like thin ham, but different) and you put stewed tomatoes, mushrooms and baked beans on top of it. YUM! 5. I'm going to see Dame Judi Densch in a play tomorrow and worship at Westminster Abbey (with my luggage in tow) on Sunday before I head to Heathrow...and home.

1) Frank is a Network Engineer for the school district. Because of his job, he has had alot of time off since I last had any. 2) I made a comment last wk that I wish things were going more smoothly around my office so I could go ahead & take some much needed vac. (I have 4 wks to take by the end of the yr & have not been able to take any). 3) I told him (and he knows) that I usually take a wk sometime in March or April & devote that wk to spring cleaning & that it was really bothering me that the house is "needing" me. 4) Out of nowhere, he took a wk of his vac. for next wk & says for me to quit stressing because HE will do the spring cleaning this coming wk. 5) I know he won't do the thorough job that I would have done but hey, that ole saying "don't kick a gift horse in the mouth" is clicking in & I will not say anything but a big thank you. 6) I went shopping today & bought nice new towels & rugs for the bathroom. Might as well add a new touch since it's going to get it's spring cleaning.

1. What a wonderful thing for him to do for you, Deb! 2. My weekend was quite fun. Since Darren and Caleb went camping, me and Kota had a girls weekend. 3. Thursday we spent the afternoon doing some cleaning and I took her to get ice cream. 4. Friday we did some more cleaning and ran a few errands. She did have a game that night, unfortunately it was too cold and windy to really enjoy it much! Last night we had her slumber/tea party and it was pretty fun, except that my middle niece was sick and didn't get to enjoy it at all. She went home with her mom and dad. 5. Today we had field clean up duty and then she went to spend the day with sis and bil and nieces. Caleb and Darren got home pretty early. They also had a great weekend, though they got snowed on. Caleb did complain about it being so cold he had to sit in the truck a few hours Friday, but it gave him a chance to finish the homework he needed to do. 6. I had a little boo boo this evening. When Darren drives his truck, he'll usually park it on the side of the house, but today he'd backed up into the driveway next to my car to unload the camping stuff. I definitely forgot it was there and didn't see it when I went to get Kota. And yep, smacked right into it when I was leaving. Of course, I didn't do a bit of damage to the truck (except chipping the paint) but dented my car, dammit. I coulda cried, ain't never done anything like that before. Funny though...I blame myself, I never saw the truck sitting there (I always look out the other way when backing up cuz kids are constantly cutting across our driveway and that's the way they come/go) but Darren blamed himself cuz he'd parked it close to my car with the nose poking out. He did say the dent in my car could be easily buffed out and have some touch up paint and it'll be fine, but still! 7. Gonna have a nutty two weeks here. The kids will be doing all the testing in school. They both have min. days for most of those two weeks (I think Tue-Thur, but could be Tue-Fri.) Not sure how I'm gonna schedule some things, like helping mil out.
