Me at the Fair


You may never guess how old I really am, but sometimes the kid just crops up and you have to go with it. So here is the hard evidence.

Weekend Getaway

Bruce took me on an adventure on Saturday. We went four wheeling up through Mantua Canyon. It was beautiful, gorgeous, splendiforous, etc. Also, there was a spring up there that came directly out from an aquafore and it was fantastic water.


So, I thought I would put some pictures up for everyone to see the beauty.



If you ever want an awe inspiring view and you aren't able to make it to my happy haunting grounds down by Jacob Lake this would be a good stand by.

The Beginning of the End

Well, after a very productive weekend...the basement is one step closer to being finished.

First we painted the ceiling on Saturday and worked on the trim. We being Mom and I.




Then on Monday I back taped the place and Mom went to town painting the walls. It looks and smells wonderful downstairs. I still have to clean the floor up and take care of a few touch up spots but overall we are winding down. Oh, what a project this has been over the last three years. I don't know what I will be on to next but there is always something that I could do.

Big Ideas

One of my many dreams when I was young was to be able to drive a back hoe. We would play with our little one in the sand box/garden and I thought it would be great fun to be able to work the regular one. Today at work they were tearing up part of the parking lot and I mentioned to one of my employees about my big idea and she sent me the following....

Men, take this as a lesson from mom and girls, you gotta love it!


Today's Inspirational Lesson
Never irritate a woman,who can operate a backhoe...




Women are Angels...And when someone breaks our wings...

We simply continue to fly....on a broomstick...
We are flexible like that...

As of the last little while....

I have been using my favorite crutches once again for the last 2 weeks. Dr Thomas tried to get the screws out of my ankle, which were coming out on their own, but of course Catherine had to be difficult. The screws wouldn't budge so he reamed them out about 1/4 inch below the surface of the bone and took the washers off as well. Bruce told me that he could have done a better job.



Overall I am doing okay now. Still soar and the fact that we have been having crappy weather doesn't help any. We had almost an inch of snow today....joy of joys.

Visitors

After returning from California Mom and I were blessed to have Amy, Emma, Eli, and Maylee come to our house for a week. We love it when there are such cute and wonderful people come to see you.

We had several great outings including going to the planetarium, glow in the dark miniature golfing, and bowling.
Emma, Kaylee, and Eli--the professional bowlers. I love these kids. They played together so well together and were great entertainment for the adults. I do miss them a lot now that they are gone.

California-- There I Went...

April was a month of refreshing faces. Mom and I went to California for 5 days to visit Natalie. It was rather chilly and cold but we did get one good day at Crystal Cove. We played in the tide pools there and found hermit crabs, mussels out the yazoo, and Mom found a star fish. This was a fabulous vacation because I got a nap every day and came back to work well rested.

We ate really good food and had lots of junk. Most especially we had donuts from Randy's Donuts in LA. If you are in the area stop and get one. They are a must.


In Ramona we went on walks in the rain. The area is beautiful and it was tempting to spend all day in doors but then I would have gotten cabin fever.

Our spirits were revived as we attended both the LA Temple and the San Diego Temple. I love beautiful architecture and landscape work and these two temples were exquisite.

Updated....are you?

Kaylee has a new best friend. His name is Bruce. She thinks that he comes over to visit so she can play with him and have his attention. I have to say I think she is very cute. I do wish that I was as cute as that most of the time. Maybe it is a good thing that I am not so I don't have the wrong sort of people flocking to me.

Anyways, spring is here and I spent most of yesterday enjoying the sun and helping Mom in the yard. I do have to say one thing about the winter...my insulation layers add up greatly and now that they are not needed extra work will have to begin.

Don't die of shock. I have been dating Bruce McDonald for the last little while. Things are going well. I am extremely happy despite all of my insecurities. Bruce is a sweet heart and is always kind and understanding.

Sad to Say...

Well, I got my trip to Arizona sooner than I planned. My Grandpa Drorbaugh passed away and I flew down to the funeral. I did get to see my family and have time to visit with them. The weather was cold and rainy in honor of the occasion.

Cute Kids: Cassie, Randy, Natalie, Me

Not watching me...thus why I bring the camera.

Go Red For Women's Heart Health


In honor of this celebration of the "Red" Month my clinics participated in the Go Red day for Women's Heart Health. Are they not cute? I am generally the photographer which is great on my part but becomes a bummer if you really want to see me. I hope all of you ladies out there are watching your health and taking the opportunity to Go Red!
