Changes...

Thank you Jackie for the help with my ticker! One day I'll learn! As you can see I added a ticker for Eternity which is Don's sister's baby. I'm trying to bridge some gaps for us with her. So I'll keep you updated there.

Don's other sister will be moving here this summer. It is in the works...so hopefully that will go smooth (a lot smoother then ours!). Her work is not a good environment any longer for her...so she is going to leave. She needs a new start and hopefully we can help her get that new start! Life here is a LOT different then Wendover, Utah. (And if you know someone that is looking to move to that area and is looking for a house--let us know--she is going to have to sell her house!) But it's a bitter sweet thing that she is moving here. I wish her life in Wendover wasn't as stressful as it is, but I'll have someone to do things with! I'm very excited about that. (Sorry Evie!)

I had to go to the dentist...and if anyone really knows me that is a horrid thing for me to do. I have let my exams go so that Don could get his teeth under control...and as result I have a tooth in the back of my mouth that I will be getting taken out. I was going to have a root canal done on it, but as the day wore on yesterday I decided that it's not worth saving. So I'll call the dentist back Monday and tell her. I have to go to a specialist because of my leaky heart, but it will be worth it in the end! But I told Don that now we have dental insurance we are both going to do better with our exams...I'm sure he's just totally excited!

I also decided that my time at home sucks...so I planted a small herb garden. I'll get a picture of it and post it. It makes my porch smell really good! Don wanted a mini Lemon tree so we got one...and over the last couple months there hasn't been much change on it. Today I was looking at it and noticed that it has a new growth starting. I'm very excited about that! We went to the grove and got some Honey Tangerines...and decided to plant some of their seeds to see if we can get them to grow. So I think I'll be living in a very self serve house. I'm scared that Don might want to try things like pineapples and bananas. It might be like a jungle in our house.

Also--I'm starting my paper work for getting my Cosmetology License here in Florida. I have had NO luck with trying to find a job. So I think once I have that it won't take long to get something. So I'm nervous that I might have to test over this stuff again!

13 days until my mom is here in Florida! I'm totally excited about that. We have found an activity to do with her before she leaves. While she is with Shari--they are planning to go to the Kennedy Space Center. But when she is here visiting ME--we are going to see the Royal Lipizzan Stallions of Austria. They spend the winter here and from Christmas until the end of March people can go watch them train for free. My mom saw them once in Austria when she was 8 years old. So when I called her last night about going she sounded excited. Just in case you don't know about these wonderful horses...here is a short story:

The stallions were saved from almost certain extinction at the end of World War II. Colonel Herrmann and his father smuggled their horses out of Europe under the protection of General George S. Patton. Other highlights about these horses: it takes 9 years for these horses to learn "the capriole," the move for which they are best known. Leaping from all four feet, they strike out with the hind legs. Once a battle maneuver of their ancestors, it is now part of this remarkable equine ballet. That's right they are ballet horses!

29 more days until my friend Kelly and her family will be here for spring break! Don and I are so very excited to see them! I'm not sure what we are going to do that week...I think one day we are going to the Magic Kingdom at Disney. Other than that I think we are going to play everything by ear. I know Don would love to take Maggie, Alesha, and Madison to the Zoo here. We will see how the week goes. Just very excited to be able to spend time with them!

Other than that nothing else is going on. Hope your weekend is full of fun and sun shine! Have a great one!
