Rommie

Well today I went down to slc. I went to grandma and grandpa's and they took grandpa to the nursing home. I also had an interview for a musical in lehi. So I took a detour, but the interview went well. we will see if I get paid for the work though. Then I went back to grandma's we went out for dinner with julie and her kids and jen and her fam. It was the first time grandma left the house in a while. And I drove her in moms car. I was a bit nervous I was going to crash but we made it safe and sound. I think grandma had fun though. Grandpa seems to be doing well. He really wanted his hair cut so julie cut his hair short. So now he is stylish. No one had a mirror though so grandpa couldn't see it. He was quite disturbed about that. But by the time we left I think we convinced him he looked good. Well Tomorrow I am going to get rachels old bedroom ready for grandma. Rachel and casey are bringing out a bed for grandma and I'm moving all of dads office downstairs. WHEW so hopefully by monday we won't be turned into zombies. ha ha sleep sweet.

Weekend

Well things have been quiet down here in St. George. I am sorry that the week has been so crazy up north. I am sorry that Grandpa isn't doing well. Let me know if you need me to do anything. I hope that you got a good night sleep mom. Well night.

what a weekend

Got a call at work that grandpa had decided he didn't want to live anymore and they thought he would die within 48 hours. So me and dad rushed down and Rachel followed to be with Grandpa. Everyone came over to say good bye and it was a nice night to see everyone. Today they took him to the nursing home and Jeran gave him a blessing of release. However I think he is doing a lot better. He is talking and watching TV and he is less swollen than hehas been for years. He won't take any meds and is eating nothing but one yogurt and drinking some water. We can keep him in the nursing home for 5 days. I am going to bring Grandma home with me for the week and then we will come back next weekend. See how it works out. I didn't sleep much last night checking on them. I am one tired lady. I am going to sleep good tonight.

LOVE MOM

Well I went to the doctor today. I was having pains in my chest. He said I had an inflammed rib cage. So now I am on de flammatory drugs. He said if it doesn't help that I can go get checked for arthritus. But the pills are helping already so I think it will all be good. Well I put up the trim on moms bathroom I just have to grougt around the small area and then I am done. I just have to touch up the paint that I destroyed along the way. But I was lazy tonight so I didn't get a picture up. sorry. I will try again tomorrow. That is cool about the iron man, If you see any real iron men you should take a picture. ha ha ha any way I am done being a nerd. have a great night

I got 5 more squares done tonight. That is good. Next time I will be half way done. It is coming along. The bathroom is looking really good. It just needs some grout and then we (Robin) is done. That would be fun to do the Ironman competition. You might even get a free t-shirt. It was nice to sew I enjoy that. I am going to go to dinner with Rachel tomorrow and meet Vickie's boyfriend. That will be nice. Dad has a cold but doing good. I think we just need some sunshine.

Well the Ironman competition is coming down here in May so I thought that I would volunteer for that. I just finished filling out the form on line. So I will have to see how that goes. I put that I was am EMT basic so I am hoping they will let me be in the first aid station. Well work was busy today. Which was nice because it made time go bye faster.

Sleep

I forgot to blog last night. I had to talk with Helen about my garbage can since I am spending the night in Logan tonight and then the goats needed a lot of work. We left a bail of hay out for the horse and he had ate it all and drank all the water. It is a big pail and it took my like 7 trips to fill it up. Then I talked to Casey and ate dinner. Then I laid in bed to read and feel asleep. It was a busy night. It is still foggy and it realyl disorents me. It is a werid feeling driving in it. I am sewing tonight and then I am going out to dinner with Vickie on Friday. It will be fun.

I am glad that I don't live Cedar to Beaver because they got hammered up that way with a ton of snow. I am excited to see your tile job robin I am sure that it will look great. Work was good today. I made a new test block and did some updates on a new proposal. It kept me busy which was nice. I hope that mom and Robin had fun going out to dinner. Have a great night one and all.

Well I watched Robin tile tonight. Actually I read and she did all the work. It looks really nice. I am excited. She is very gifted. I am excited to sew on Thursday. Tomorrow night I am going to go VT with Linda and then we are going out to dinner with Robin. That should be fun. I don't have to much else going on here. It is getting lighter at night. At least it isn't dark when I leave work any more. I was wondering if it is light when you get home Rachel or still not that good yet. Well have a good hump day. LOVE MOM

The sound of silence

It snowed again this morning so the roads were kind of bad on the way to work. Work was busy, they called me when I left for lunch and I had to go back to do a report. It has been crazy. I did have some of my chicken soup for lunch and that was really nice. It tasted good. My visiting came tonight and that was nice. I have new ones now so it was good to meet them. My TV isn't working, the satellite must of moved when we got the ten feet of snow. I need to call the repair man but I keep forgetting. Not much else is going on. Thursday we are sewing and that will be fun. I started listening to a good book, it is called the Swan Thief's. This man trys to destroy this painting in an art museum so they commit him to a psychic ward. He wont talk to his doctor so the doctos is trying to figure out his motivation. It is a really good book I like it so far. I will let you know if it ends good.

Demo

Robin I hope that you had fun tearing down the old tile. I am sure that it will turn out good. You are good at that sort of stuff. Rachel good job on the soup. It is fun to make from scratch. I like to that every once and while also. It was pretty down here today. You still needed a jacket most of the day but it was nice and sunny outside. Unfortunately I still had to work and could not enjoy most of the day outside. Oh well. Work was good. Nothing new to report. Have a good one BYE
