The Day

Well Sunday was the day that I lost my best friend 18 years ago. It was a very busy day Sunday which was kind of good. I really did not have much time to think and dwell on it too much. Even after 18 years it is still painful at times to relive the whole day in my head. Tonight was a the first real quiet night I have had at home and so I took the time to remember Tim with some of our old favorites: ice tea, Doritos and jalapeno and cheddar dip. All that was missing was a Jean-Claude VanDamme movie.

On another note, I think I have a big decision coming up at work. I think they are moving the repair department to another building. I need to decide if I want to become a full time tech or to stay and take on different duties. I will find out tomorrow about more of my options. So just remember me in your prayers for now as I try to make the best decision.

Anna's 1st day of school

We are such over zealous parents. We actually took 37 pictures of this one day including still asleep the morning of the first day, getting hair done, pictures with mom, and with sis, and with dad (which I included). I decided to not bore you with all the pictures and just give you the highlights.

She is all ready to go with her new Dora backpack.


Picture with dad at the front door.


At the parking lot where over zealous mom and dad both took time off work to drive there and take pictures.


Mom shows her the way to her room.


Ms. Jeni greets her at the door and shows her wear her stuff goes.


All ready forgetting about mom and dad at the door taking pictures she is off and anxious to start her first day.


After a long day of school (1 - 3:30) she is worn out on the ride home. By the way, her favorite part was getting to ride the bus 5 blocks from her school to Mommy's school where she teaches.
