I was tagged by my friend Melibelle to do my first meme! Here goes!
*Every time I go back to Florida I learn more and more from my Mom. Cooking she always wanted me to do American style but I find that my roots are Korean and gray
*I use to be scared of the dark if Chris wasn't home I slept with the lights on. I still do even though I'm not scared of the dark any more
*I wish I had finished my paramedic training.
*I have PCO and wasn't suppose to have any children
*I wish I could be more organized
*I hate when people treat me like I'm invisible. I don't have to be the center of attention but I hate being disregarded.
*I wish my children didn't have to hurt so much in the process of becoming adults

April Greetings!
Hi everyone I hope that you all have been getting in the gardens and planting spring flowers.
Chris is busy working on the back flower beds trying to get them done before the spring rains start.
As many of you know my parents gifted Catherine with a vehicle. She is now the proud owner of a 2005 Mecury Mountaineer. She is so in love with the car it isn't funny. She also has been busy working out with a friend of hers named Emily. They have been hitting the gym on a regular bases.
Update on Trixy:
She is still with us even though she has permanant damage to one of her legs. Chris wasn't able to put her down so short of surgery we did what we could and she is now moving around fairly well on 3 legs. She will have to be an indoor cat or supervised outdoor but for the most part she is still with us.
Update on Rae:
Please pray for wisdom and guidance for Rae. A job opportunity has opened up in Florida near my Father and it would be perfect for her. She has sent them a resume' and we are hoping to hear from them soon. Pray for Eastside Baptist Church as they continue to look for a Youth/Music leader.
Update on work:
Well my admin transfered back to Denton. I guess we were just too rough on her here lol. She is happier so I wish her the best. However that now temporaryily moves me to the cage. grrrrr. I did talk to a friend in Dallas who told me that 19 people applied for the admin position here in Sherman. 19!! the job was only posted for 5 days and that many persons applied for it. It tells you how the economy is going if that many people would apply for an entry level job.
Update on Florida:
I had a good time and was glad to be there for the babies birthday. I'll post pictures later they are on Chris's phone so I need to wrestle it away from him and down load them.
Take care, SJ

One of the cruelties of this disease
We personally learned one of the cruelties of having a parent with Alzheimer’s.
Yesterday Chris was talking to his mom and she was all tore up. She had just found out that her mother had passed away. She was heart broken and had to start the grieving process all over again. (Beatrice died in December of 1981). How cruel is that to rip open a wound so deeply healed. She was so upset and worried how Chris and I would handle the loss. It was just as bad on Chris and he didn’t even know how to help his mom. I hate this disease.

Please keep Caedee in your prayers this week
My MIL Pricilla has Alzheimer's and was hiding it from everyone for the last 2 years, She is at the end of stage 1 and almost to stage 2 so they are moving her to an assisted living facility but not not until after the 10th.
So Randy and Amy Chris and I decided that she should stay with us until her apartment was ready. When Chris and Caedee went to the airport to pick her and Ged up. She didn't know who Caedee was. That hurt Caedee's feelings but she understood it was the disease and not Pricilla.
Then she lost her Ipod that my folks got her for Christmas before last.
Then I ran over her cat.
She isn't having the best of weeks.
I want to just crawl into bed and sleep for a week.
Love you,
S
