Long week

This week seemed like it was never going to end. I had an extremely long week. Can you believe that they gave me authorization and a license to tow a multi-million dollar helicopter. That's what I worked on this week. I didn't want it because it's just more stuff I have to do at work but I had to get it because we only had one guy and his wife has something wrong with her appendix so he couldn't work the past 2 days. Anyways. It's worn me out driving helicopters around for the past 3 days. How is everyone after this dreadful week? We are ok in this house. Jeremy went to get his flight physical to see if he is still in good enough condition to fly and they told him he couldn't because he needed glasses. But he got that fixed today so he can fly again. He is leaving the first week of March to go to weapons and tactics instruction or whatever in Yuma, Arizona. He will be gone for 2 months. I'm going to miss him a lot but I have other things that will happen in his absence. For example the arrival of my wonderful niece Hannah. Can't wait to see her finally. She ain't even here and I love her so much already. Can't wait for her to get here. I'm going to spoil her so much. Hehehe! Poon(the guy that lives with us) is doing good. He has a boat so him and Jeremy and our friend Sean go fishing every weekend for a boys day. I usually either clean the house or go somewhere with Sean's girlfriend Tiffany. She's just like me. Just a good ole country girl. Everything is good here though. They aren't going fishing this weekend though because Sean and Tiff went out of town to Florida this weekend to visit Tiff's folks. So instead of fishing this weekend the 3 of us our going to do a mass cleaning from top to bottom on the house and repaint all the molding throughout the house. It's going to be a long weekend but at least I'll be away from work. But we are going to eat at our friend Stacey and George's in a bit so I'm going to get off here and get out of my oorah military attire and get in some comfy jeans and a t-shirt. I love all of yall. Write soon!!

Hello out there

I know we're all busy. So I won't gripe about anybody not writing. Usually my problem. Things going pretty well here. Enjoyed some weather breaking weather on Monday with a high of 74! Then tornadoes and storms came through last night. South of here got the worst of it. Never enough hours in the day for all I'd like to do of course. I got my walking in twice this week and plan on tonight too even if on the treadmill.
Students must be getting as tired as I am - they are all getting so whiney! End of March I am done with lectures and only have to follow up weekly with the students. Yeah!
Grandma and Grandpa doing well. Both went to doctor last week and everything was good. Grandpa saw his doctor that controls his steroid dose and seems to be reducing without any problems. Almost on a maintenance dose now. They are glad to have Mary back. He looked and acted half starved but once his belly was full he settled right back into the house cat routine (laying in the rocker).
If you click on the settings tab you will see options for changing the site or whatever. Look for ways to add pictures. I'd love to see you guys put some pictures on. Mine are older photos but plan on getting some others on here soon.
Love to all. Write.

Superbowl plans

Superbowl Sunday is here. Rick and I have gotten into making it an event every year. So far it's just the 2 of us. But still fun. I have my Bud light, wine or Pineapple-orange and rum - whichever I feel like at the time. I think though that beer should be the beverage of choice for the Superbowl. After all, you don't see commercials for rum and wine. I have my wager - not for any team but for scores at each quarter. Here's my numbers: NY 4, NE 8 and NV 1, NE 6. what this means: if the last number of the score at the end of the quarter matches my numbers I get $125. It's random drawing of numbers so we don't get to choose. Keep your fingers crossed, I could always use an extra $125 or $250 dollars!
Went to Walmart today and Petsmart. I think I'm going to enroll Ginger in beginning obedience classes. They told me that by the end of the 8 weeks, she would behave well at home - no jumping up on people and no barking! She really needs to learn to behave. Classes start the 18th. Hope it works.
Now I'm back to work. Lessons for Tuesday and Thursday. Takes me so darn long! Oh well, next semester I'll finally be a little ahead of the game.
Love to everyone (even the snake I guess, though I will never show it any affection!)

Internet outage

Not just busy. My internet was off for the last 4 days. Just came on last night after several mad messages left to the people I get service from. A__holes!!! As soon as they get the rest of the tvs hooked up I'm going to try to get a different internet service. I don't think we signed a contract or anything.
Rick and I are well. Still working on doors and trimwork. Took Gma to her hair appt this morning since it was icy/snow on Thursday. She looked pretty. She's had a bad couple of days before this. I had to work at the hospital on Wed and missed seeing as much of them for several days. I think she was missing me. Anyway, I visited last night, helped her get a bath and she was in much better spirits. Gave me a hug and wouldn't let go. Loved it!
Brenda and Lindsey will be here for an overnight stay and visit with Gpa and Gma. Not very long but they will enjoy the company. Hopefully the weather will be good and they can get out and drive around or something.
Travis called this morning. Still hell bent on self destruction. I guess my "nagging" ran him off from the house but hopefully he knows I care and will be there when he needs me. I try to reinforce the fact that drinking and driving isn't all about him. There are lots of other motorists on the road. I left him just this morning buying more beer. So I just told him to go somewhere and drink it and call me if he needed to go somewhere. He just called and he's at Dad's so maybe it will be okay.
Getting anxious about Hannah's arrival. Did you girls know that you had a great, great, great, great grandmother named Hannah also. Not exactly sure how many of the greats there should be but it is pretty far back there. She was a Beanard by birth, married 4 times and had about 10 children. Most of them are Bargers. Actually, thinking about it she is probably not a grandmother but a distant aunt. Anyway, Grandpa got another history book so we can look it up and find out. I'm wondering if she wasn't killing her husbands off. Only one of them lived more than 4 years after marrying her! Hmmmm?
Well, lots to do today - laundry, cleaning, writing lectures, cooking, getting ready for the SuperBowl tomorrow, more cleaning, and taking care of Mom and Dad and more lecture preparation (takes me a long time to get all my info together!)
Will check in and write more when I can. You guys need to post some pictures.

Wooooo Hoooooo

I think that this has turned into our blog. Mom never gets on here anymore and Juan don't want to. He thinks this is our gossip network and don't wanna get invloved in woman things. He's so funny. Anywho, what I was going to say is that before you rent a movie call me. Juan has some club he's in where he can download movies. We watched Saw IV a couple of weeks ago. Well, my boys are good. We take them for a walk for aobut an hour in the woods every other day now after work. They love being able to get out of the back yard. As far as Hermy, we are having a hard time with keeping the humididty right. But that will be fixed this weekend. Well, I'll get off here but if you want to go eat with us Saturday, sis, give me a call. I'm trying to avoid Sheena. She asked if she could have a BBQ at my house. She has her own damn house. Turd.
