A little bit of stress

In the last week we have brought my mom up to Idaho to stay in an Assisted Living Center here in Idaho. She is not too happy about it right now but was not safe living at home by herself. She is safe here and gets her meds and good food every day. I feel a lot better about her being here but she doesn't like me much right now. In the long run all will be well. My siblings have had a rough go of it as one sibling has been a pain.....families can be great... and a challenge.

I jinxed myself

I really Jinxed myself when I said that it was not busy..... we got very busy!
Oh well, it kept me out of trouble for a week. Arley had his 3rd birthday, we found out he is getting a little brother, and I am going to bring my mom up here to have her get into an Assisted Living center. That is going to be very interesting.

Boring day at work

I guess everyone is cured! Not really but have had a boring day today. An ear infection, a rash and a broken arm.... I guess I was still needed for those things but I would rather be busy busy. Here's a picture of Firth or Firt as Sergei would say.

Beautiful walk in the morning

Golden Eagle

Yellowstone Bears

We went to Yellowstone this weekend and had a blast. I made Allen drive around the Park until he almost went crazy but we saw 2 Grizz, a Black bear, a Big Horn Sheep, a wolf, a coyote den, a great gray owl, a fox, a badger, 2 bald eagles and lots and lots of Buffys. It was so relaxing, I really enjoyed it.

Memorial Day

I got to go to Sparks and see my family. We visited my dad's grave in the Veteran's cemetery. It was really neat to see all the flags and to know that those brave soldier's served and worked for our freedom.

I sure hope that Spring will spring or sprung or whatever....

Hi all,
I am ready for good weather! I am snow tired. I had a bad experience last week as I had to give a 5th Sunday talk in church about pandemic flu and caffiene. Brother....anyway, I'm ok with the pandemic flu stuff but I didn't get into the C word. BTW there is a cool site called Got Lamp Oil that has some great preparedness stuff. www.ldsglo.com I think.

The little bears are here!

Really great week, Matt, Kersten , and Arley made it here without too much difficulty and we are soooo glad to have them here. Arley is a hoot and really makes things pretty fun. It is a little noisier than it has been.... that is a good thing. All is well.

Long time no talk to...

I decided that it was better not to post than to post negative thoughts... :) Since the weather has finally decided to give us some sunshine, I am feeling a little better. Long winter. My birthday is this week and for some reason 53 sounds really old to me. Where did all the years go? I am still 18 in my brain. I don't want to be an old person. I will just ignore the years and stay young in my mind, what little there is left of it ha ha.
Goooo Cougs! They won their first tournament game (MWC) now finish out and win at least one NCAA game. I am not asking for much... just one game come on guys!

Arley's BIG brain

Long Time....

Wow, this month has gone by sooooo fast! We are super excited because our little bears are coming home and will stay with us for a little while. We have missed them horribly and are really glad to have them close by. I have been sick and that is really dumb. What a waste of time, it is. I really don't have time for it.... Oh well, ,maybe I should see my healthcare professional... ha ha

Arley, Kersten and the park

Happy New Year

I am hoping the 2009 is a good luck year. So far, it is going by so fast that I can't believe it. I had a week off at work and I'm not sure it was worth having to come back to what happened Monday. We had no computers (which is death anyway) and then saw 24 patients which is a super busy Monday aaauuugggh. Anyway, things have slowed down a bit so I thought I would wish everyone a Happy New Year. I am hoping for the new pres to help us get our economy back to snuff. It is really bad right now. I have 3 members of my close family who have lost their jobs in the last month..... yikes.
