What's Been Going On...

  September 01, 2009

You all have probably been wondering why I haven't been updating lately.  Well, lots have been going on here.  Not really fun and interesting things.  Husband has been having some health issues.  We are working on trying to figure out what is causing him so much pain.  This has been going on for a few months now.  Hopefully we will be getting some answers tomorrow.  We have also been doing our home study update.  It is due this month. 

Over the weekend we had a really scary fire scare.  There was a fire in our small town not that far from us.  My dad's house was in danger, but he made it out just fine and his house made it, too.  The fire ended up buring 60 homes and a few businesses.  It was really scary around here.  The fire is out now and we are fine. 

Also, our house is up for sale.  I think I said in a previous post about this.  No one has come and looked at the house, which is good for us.  We really don't need to worry about this right now with everything else.  Dean's parents house on the other had is pending.  They did find a house in Grants Pass, Or.  They put a bid on it.  It is a really nice house.  I hope they get it.  They will be only 6 hrs from us.  That is still close.  We could drive there.  We are very happen for them.  They can now retire in a town that they have wanted to live in.  We are happy for them.

So that is what is going on here.  I am so sorry that I haven't been updating lately.  I will try harder.  I am on Face Book if you want to following me there.  Just look up Cyndi James.  Please keep checking back.  You can always just leave a comment and just say HI!!

Look what Ali Shea and I got from my Mother in Law, JoAnn.  I love my ladybug slippers.  I really needed a new pair of slippers and now they are these very cute ladybugs.  The book was for Dean from Marie C.  He said that it was for Ali Shea.  I said that it was for him to read to Ali Shea.  It is a really cute book.  It is about a Banana Slug.  I love banana slugs.  When we were in Washington back in May, husband and I were on a mission to find one.  Well we did.  We not only found 1, but we found 3.  They are really neat if you never seen them before. Marie..I really love the book.  I have already read it and it is really cute.  I can't wait till we can read it to Ali Shea.  You know how much we loves these slugs.  Thank you so much.  

JoAnn...Thank you so much for the cute ladybug slippers.  They are perfect.  I really love them.
