Too much simple minded thinking in this world.

I am no genius, but thank God and my parents that I am not an idiot.

That class was terrible in Seattle.

I sure hope I passed the test and don't have to do the class over again. Overall things are going well. Damon should be coming home at the end of next week. He is doing much better. We are all very excited to head to Disneyland here in 3 weeks. We are also headed up to Monterrey for a small family reunion before routing back to Utah. Also staying in Vegas one night on the way down. Should be fun.

We have been doing some great landscaping in the backyard. We planted one tree, with 3 more trees on the way, about 15 shrubs/flowers, lots of sod and waiting on curbing/black stuff around flower beds and bark pieces. Should look really good. We had some drip systems put in that make it easier to do all of these things. Still have to plug up some holes in the sod pieces eventually but perfection will take awhile with that. The clay under the top soil mixture make holes while watering so much. We've tried not to walk on it much for that reason. We also painted the garage floor after doing some much needed cleaning and organizing. I love getting projects done.

Overall things are going well.. Now just need to lose more weight.

Seattle is pretty exciting...

So I am up here for four days doing a coverage training for work. Yeah it is as exciting as it sounds. Sitting in class for seven hours with another 3 hours in my hotel room working on coverage. I did get to see my two sisters, my brother in law Cracka and my nephew. Carter is a cute little bugger. And the most important thing...he didn't cry when I held him for about ten minutes.

Anna and the four kids are traveling around northern california...I miss them a lot. I will be back on Friday and the kids on Sunday.

My sister has a sweet Mercedes...

Liars and deception-

I'm having some issues with trust lately. All stemming from people lying and deceiving us. I consider myself a pretty honest person, so when this happens to me I am not too pleased. I guess some people are so delusional that they think lying is the answer to all of their problems. They have no idea how this affects others and how others may deal with them and their lying.

Keep N in your prayers...I'm not sure where he

is at this moment. But it is sure hard to think about the future and how this will affect him and his relationship with his siblings. And also our relationship with his extended family....

N is still gone.

I wish we could plaster his name all over the news and get some attention over this. Kid is going to screw up his life even more.

N has run away from his foster home...

Not sure what is going on or what is going to happen but this is creepy with the different dynamics going on.
