Tyler's Baptism

My niece Tyler got baptized into the church this past Saturday. Its amazing that she is already the age of 8. I am so proud of her for making this decision in her life. It was a nice day outside, in which, after the baptism of her and one of her friends, we went outside to one of the picnic area's next to the church building and had a light lunch and visited. We took a few pictures as you can see. I am glad that I was able to attend and be there for this special day for Tyler.

My Ride

On Monday's, Wednesday's, and Friday's I ride the bus in the mornings to get to work so that I can save a bit on gas. And the other two days I go to school and I use the car so that I am not late for anything seems as how I have to be at work by 10am and my class gets out at 9:20am... I don't think there is anyway to make it to work on time with that type of time in between. This morning waiting for the bus I was waiting patiently playing my DS and when it came I did not realize how late the bus was this morning. When I got to Trax I saw the time and it was 7:55am, I thought Oh man I am going to be late ( by then I had 5 minutes to get to work). When I got to work I was about 17 minutes late. Which isn't bad, and I donn't mind since I wasn't that late. And I realize buses can be late I just wanted to vent alittle bit. I am ok now.... Thanks for reading my post.... I will try not to vent to much here.... LOL!!!! Its nice to save a bit though like I said.... :o)

My Nieces and Nephews

I just recieved these pictures of my nieces and nephews and I thought I would share them with you. The kids in the above photo are the Davis kids (My best friend Katie's). Rylan, Teighan, Tyler and Mason who is in the front. I have adopted them as my niece and nephews. The kids in the photo below, belong to my brother and sisters (VanDyke, Keener and Howard's). Dylan, Briley, Katlin, Jaicey and Auzryel who is in the back. Some I see more then others but I love them all the same. It is amazing how much they have grown. I cherish the moments that I have with them, whether it be just hanging out with them, playing on the floor with them or just watching them play and have fun. As long as they have a smile on their faces I am happy and what ever is on the mind at the time is usually voided out. And I enjoy those times. I am grateful that I have had the opportunity to see them grow. And hope to continue to see them sprout even if it is sad moment. I love you guys!!!!

Great News For Now!

So I went to my doctor yesturday for my throat and found out that he does not want to do surgery right now at this point. Because in my test the percentage for my acid reflux was not high enough to make him think the surgery would be for would help at all, his thought is that it would make my issues that I am having right now worse. So he wants to have me watch it for about a year or so and have dialations done if needed and then in that year he will want the same test that I had done again to test my esophagus to see if it has worsened or stayed the same. So its good news now but may not be later... But I am happy with that, because I really didn't want to go through surgery unless it was something that would improve the situation.

So hooray for that one...... :o)

A silly firefighter/monkeys...

So this picture is of one of my nephews... His name is Auzryel or we call him Auzzie for short. ( I can say right now that alot of my posts my include my nieces and nephews for the reason that they are a huge part of my life and they keep me a youngin LOL) Right now Auzzie and his mom ( my sister ) are living with me and last night he was doing his monkey face and I decided to get a picture of it becasue I thought it was really cute... He is the monkey firefighter.. LOL... I have another nephew that does a cute monkey face. I will try to catch him in the act next time so that I can show you all what a cutie he is... Just like Auzzie. Thanks again for stopping by.... See you next time.

Here is my other nephew named Rylan, he also gives a cute monkey face.... I was able to take it tonight, Tuesday Sept 9.. I love them all.... You will get to know all of my nieces and nephews I am sure of it... I can never get to much of them... LOL!!!

A Get Together

Yesturday I had lunch with some friends of mine that I used to work with and I haven't seen in awhile. Seems longer then it really is I think. Time sure flies when your having fun. Ok, to be honest its not the fact that you are having fun, it is really because your getting older so time doesn't seem to drag... LOL!! At least that is what we figured out during lunch.. Nice info to realize huh? I don't think so. The thought of me being old is sad really. But hey that doesn't seem to stop mefrom getting older. Oh well. I guess will just hae to deal with getting older... Or should I say aging? Because I don' think I will ever ecome old. My nieces and nephews will help me accomplish that one. Or at least I hope hey do. Anyways I just thought I would send a shout out and say it was good seeing you again. We will have to do it again soon....

A Fresh Start......

Ok so my first blog page didn't work out. It did for awhile until I messed it up and it took an option away and of course I didn't know how to change it back. Hopefully on this one I won't mess it up again... LOL!!

For those of you who didn't have a chance to read my last post on my other blog I will give somewhat of a quick overview of whats been going on with me. I should say that I am falling apart. Since I have turned 30 I have had medical issues that I have had to go through. For one is my throat. They believe that I have an acid reflux issue that causes my throat to tighten up that cause me to have a hard time eating and such. I have been in to the hospital to have a procedure done to dialate it to open it up so that I am able to have food and liquids go down with no issues. I have had this done 3 times and I have an appointment with my doctor next week to discuss what my other options are. We soon shall see I hope that they will be able to do something to fix the issue. And the other issue that I have had is lately I have had problems with my knees... I can't sit or stand for long periods of time without my knees hurting. So I went in to a knee specialist and he was able to do some x-rays and he came to the conclusion that I have whats called " Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome ."



I found this picture online...... My patella's are facing outward from what I understand with seeing my x-rays and it puts alot of strain on the knee. So when I sit or stand for long periods of time it causes pain. I am sure I will learn more about it as I go to therapy and learn a few excersizes to strengthen and help somewhat relieve some pain or pressure whichever you would like to call it. And I also did recieve some pain meds to help when needed as well...

See what I mean when I say I am falling apart... I am sure it will all get fixed and I will be somewhat of a regular person without issues.... Wait I shouldn't say that becasue I always have some kind of issues... LOL!!

Thanks for stopping by.... Have a good day!
