Presidents' Day!

Hey all,

It's been a wonderful, long weekend! I had to work on Sat and Sun, but that's ok! I got a lot done around the house and got to watch some shows at home and went to a movie with Catrina on Sat. eve. We saw "The Vow". Great movie!

Kids are doing well! Kalyn got her financial aid stuff all figured out and is ready to start school, one month from today! Sasha was sick last Thursday after she got some shots and so Kalyn was pretty upset for her. Poor pup...I think she is better now. Tyler's car died the other day, so we are working on getting him another car. Kevin, his uncle, is selling a Honda that he has, so Tyler is out test-driving that right now! Kevin turns 30, tomorrow, so we are going to dinner tonight! We were supposed to have lunch tomorrow, but Catrina has already called in sick to work tomorrow, so I asked Kev if we could go tonight instead.

Not too much else going on...just working and working out. I'm kinda enjoying the time to myself right now. :) That's all I've got for now...just wanted to check in and say hello!! Until next time....

February!

Hey all,

Here we are in the month of February already! Time just keeps marching on....

Not much to report, but thought I would check in here with you all. Drove to Santa Fe last night after working at the bank and came back to a snow storm on the mountain of Los Alamos!! Traffic was at a dead stop coming up the hill, almost to town, so I sat in my car for 45 minutes watching one car at a time get towed up the hill. I had 4-wheel drive, so I was fine to go, but waiting and waiting was ridiculous! Finally the police showed up and were pushing people to get them moving. The car in front of me finally got going and then stopped for some reason and then of course, couldn't get going again. ugh...so the officers let me go around him... I got up to the top and there were cars off the road, spinning to go forward, stuck in the middle of the road and little Ravy just chugged along and weaved between all these crazy folks and finally got home. I had to shovel the driveway...we had about 5 inches of snow. My neighbor, Justin, came out right after I finished shoveling and said "I was just gonna come out and shovel for you"...what a sweetie! I told him, sure, you probably watched me do it from your house and THEN came out to offer. LOL Him and his wife are divorcing and they had moved out of their trailer and were renting it out, but now he moved back in! He's helped me a lot with repairs at my place. His wife, Tabatha, I have known since she was 14 when she worked at McD's with me. She's now 29!

I'm working at the gym today, then going straight over to the High School for the Topper Revue (talent show) that the kids put on every year. Tyler has been a participant when he was in school, as most of you probably remember. Tomorrow am, I need to bake a cake for the Superbowl party at Kent and Carrie's at 4 and then at noon, I'm going to the Courtright's to do my weekly cleaning over there. Busy, Busy weekend and I had hoped to watch the movie 50/50, but not sure when I will get a chance. I bought it so I suppose I can watch it at anytime!

Things are going well with me and kids, so I'm happy about that. Tyler always keeps the house so neat for me and so we make great roommates!! Have a great weekend everyone! Until next time....
