My eyes.....



It may be time, this time.  I had an eye appointment a few years back and she said I needed only reading glasses which I took back because they made me sick.  At the return she told me I would know when I needed glasses and I think it may be time soon.  My eyes hurt and water more and in the morning it takes me an hour or so to actually be able to focus on things.  I read with those reader glasses at a 1.25 right now and that helps me, especially at night.  I hate the fact that when it is dim at all I can't read anything, I used to read in the almost darkness.  Getting old sucks.

9/11 ten years later this is also my 1000 post

I remember where I was when I turned on the TV to see the 2nd plane fly into the towers.  Shock and horror were the feelings and a bit of confusion.    Where were you?

Book Readers out there I need your help!!!

If you have read a new book lately please write and tell us about it.  Why did you read it, where did you get it, what would you rate it out of 5, and give me a 200 plus word review of what you thought.
This would be great and very helpful...I can fill in the author bio, summary, and other reviews.
Thanks Lisa

To work or not to work...that is the question.


My boss from Albert Lea called asking if I would come back, I had a slow season last year so I'm not sure.  Then he told me the new owner wants me to come back and manage the place.  Well I was a manager of a 24/7 facility years ago and hated it most of the time. Management is tough and friends that you use to work with now work for you and don't respond the same.  Also the hours and the kids would hate that, they are spoiled rotten with me home most of the time.  Subbing this year is changing and I don't know how that is going to work...I don't really know what to do.  What a pain and along with this my therapist thinks I should go back to school and become a special ed teacher.  What to do, what to do?

Utah trip staying with the Bremner's


How they put up with us is the question?  We stayed with my brothers family in Utah and had a great time.  Some of us climbed almost to the top of Timp, some of us washed windows at a service project and some of us made quilts and scarves, all of us had a fabulous apple pie for David's birthday, all of us had plenty of good food to eat and all of us had a great time playing at the Hollywood connection in West Valley.  I forgot how much I love to roller skate.

Lily giggled us awake every morning and Heather kept us awake playing games every evening.  The place was packed with all of us joining Paige there also.  So much fun and such a great family they are with one more to join them soon.  Thanks guys for a wonderful time!!!!  The ohotos are everyone getting ready for church at 9, it went better then I would have imagined it to go.  We all made it on time.
