I promise...

to do better writing this blog. Somehow the days just get away from me. Perhaps it's because I have three huge projects going on at work, as well as all my regular duties. Perhaps it's because the last month has been pretty busy, with a trip to Omaha for Brandon's interview, graduation, Mother's Day, Brandon's birthday, etc.

We actually celebrated Mother's Day, birthdays for Michelle, Brandon and Rhonda, and Brandon's graduation last weekend. We met on Sunday (glad it was Memorial Day weekend!) at our house.

Family who attended: Rhonda, Mom, Marilyn, Mike, Terry, Sandy, Michelle, Nick
Friends who attended: Melody and her friends Marge & Richard, Paul, Alex & Jansen; Brandon's friend Brady and neighbors Tom and Tiffany. Diane and her boyfriend also stopped by. I didn't get a lot of pictures, but I did get a few:

Nick in our K-State chair. Had to get this picture since he's a huge KU fan.

We had a great time. It was pretty hot and windy, but better than chilly! Corby fixed pulled pork, cole slaw and beans. We make plans for our next big bash: Sunday, July 3rd. We'll do our July 4th celebration then since the 4th is on Monday and most of us have to work the next day. That's okay, Park City starts shooting fireworks several days early, so I'm sure we'll see plenty on Sunday!

We are blessed to have Brandon back home, at least for a while. He's got a full-time intern job, and is hoping it will become a full-time permanent job in 3-6 months. It's great having him home. He's been spending a lot of time with his best friend Brady. While trying to remember how long they've been friends, I remembered they met in 6th grade at Allison and have been friends ever since. That's 11 years. Glad that he's got a friend to hang around with here in town!

Finally got mom's new shoes. I had to take her to Hart Medical/Pharmacy at 13th & Oliver for a fitting and to order them. Terry took her to get them on Thursday evening, and I will take her back for one more check before she's cleared to wear them. Since she is diabetic, Medicare pays 80% of the shoes and 3 sets of inserts. She's been complaining for 5 months about needing shoes, but when Marilyn went over to see her last night she wasn't wearing them. Marilyn asked her why, and she said she wasn't supposed to wear them. She got confused. She's just not supposed to wear them outside until after her next appointment on June 14th. She cracks me up sometimes...


Got tickets from work for tomorrow's Wingnuts game at 5:00. I'll have to wait and see how hot it is before I decide if I want to go. Not sure I want to sit out there if it's 100 degrees!

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
