Hey all!!
Another wonderful day in New Mexico!! Love living here and very thankful for my 3 jobs!!! A lot of people cannot say that right now and it's so sad out in the work force these days....
Well, I am anxiously counting down to seeing everyone in Minn and Wisc!! 15 days!! Woo! Kalyn is VERY excited to see me and I cannot wait to see her! It's been 7 long months since I've seen her last. We talk just about everyday on the phone, but not seeing her is different, to say the least! Mom arrives here on the 9th and then we head out on the road, the morning of the 12th. I'm sure we will have a couple of good days here (eating at Gabriel's) with Tyler and Mom getting her NM fix. She loves it here!! We will arrive on Mother's Day in EC and Kalyn plans to already be there, so it will be good to be together for Mother's Day. Should be a really great time!
Things here are good!! I'm keeping busy with work and working out and stuff around the house. I've got some really good friends here that keep me busy too, so there's always a house gathering or movie to go see. I'm truly blessed all the way around!
Kiddos are good...cats are good...what else could I want!? ;) This is short and sweet, until next time....

it's me finally!!
Hey all,
Been super busy, as always! Just working away and working out are my life right now. I'm very thankful for my family and friends and jobs and thankful to God that he made all this possible!
Kalyn had to have a ton of work done on her car! I got approved for a credit card with the Napa place she went to so most of that went on that card. Now I gotta work on paying that back! Kalyn helped a little and also cancelled her gym membership, so she can help too. She's glad the car is running great now, so hopefully that was that for awhile! Kalyn is loving school and doing really well! Can't wait to see her in May!!
Tyler is having car issues too. His car has a violent shaking at about 65-80 mph. We had the tires rotated and balanced and it still does it, so we are gonna have to have someone look at the drive shaft, etc and see whats up. Kevin offered to have his buddy work on it at a discount and then Tyler's boss, Brian, will let Tyler make payments if we go to him at his auto shop and do it. So, we shall see....I can't afford anything else right now, so he might have to be on his own for this one. I like to help when I can, but boy things have been crazy with money again. Oh well! He is working on getting a passport, etc as him and his gf and mom are all going to Ireland (??, I think??) in July/August. He's trying to save money up for that too.
Just had Jesse's one year death anniversary on Thursday! What a rough/sad day! I cried the evening before, just thinking about him and then Thursday morning while getting ready for work. It is just a shame how a life can be gone! We were so close to Jesse and had just seen him two weeks prior to his suicide! Tyler was extremely close to him, especially when they both lived in ABQ together. Very sad and we will always miss him so much! He was so smart and talented. Pure shame...
I did go see "The Hunger Games", not just once, but twice!! Great movie! I am reading the book, but have been so busy lately, I'm still at the beginning. I have the 2nd book on hand too, for when I'm done with the first.
Catrina and I went out last night. First, we went to the High School Rugby game and then over to the Canyon. She had to leave early, but I had friends there so we shot pool and stuff. She is seeing a new guy, Jeff, so we've been going out the past couple of weekends! I haven't had to buy any of the beer yet! We keep getting our drinks bought for us! lol
Really looking forward to vacation to Minnesota/Wisconsin! We leave from here Saturday, May 12th, get to Wisconsin the evening of the 13th/Mother's Day and then I will drive back on the 22nd and 23rd. I'm excited to see everyone and just get away. I finally told Tyler about the trip last night, but he can't afford to miss 8 days of work, so he will stay home and cat-sit for me. :) I had thought about going to Wisconsin Dells, while we are there, but decided against it. After helping K pay for her car, I just don't have the extra funds, like I thought. So, maybe we will jaunt down to Madison and see Auntie Jacque since I haven't seen her in forever!! :)
Well, I am working at the gym, but wanted to catch ya'all up on the happs. Not much, but we are all doing well, which is the important part! Until next time....
