Lostering

One of my favorite things is to go to Red Lobster.  I have some Red Lobster Friends.  We have been friends for soo long and have been going to red loster for a while.  LOVE the Crab.  I go with my friend Lynne and Janet.  Lindar and Jenn have joined us in the last few years because we are soo fun.  Really there isn't much better than Old friends that know all about you and still love you.  The joke is that we are chemo buds because if you have to have chemo therapy you need a ride and we are buds enough to take the day off work for driving each other to chemo therapy!  actually we had another friend, Gerilyn, that said she would hold our hair back when we would throw up in the toilet...Now that is a friend!  Sad part is she died about 7 years ago when she had a stomach staple.  Two weeks out, she got a blood clot and died.  Love and miss my Gerilynn!  Nothing like my chemo lobster buds!  Really it doesn't get any better than the are!

Another bar of soap...

I have soo many things to post that I decided to post about soap.   I have used a bar of soap For my restless leg syndrome.  Place it under your sheet and it is suppose to help.  Well, I noticed it,was helping.  Like it stopped.(restless leg syndrome was self diagnosed by he way). but then I noticed that I was having some restless legs again...read online about someone else that had the symptoms come back after a while so she changed the soap and got relief.  So I was just laying here and had restless again...changed the soap and it has stopped!  Wow. gotta  b crazy!  But hey price is right and smells good!!

MVP for Nick

Easter 2013

Easter came early this year.  It was in March.  We had a yummy dinner and the gma's house and a fabulous easter egg hunt.  I think the highest egg finder got $11.16.  I think I need to participate.  Marti had to help hide the eggs this year for gpa.  Last year, he took a chair around with him and rested.  This year, he had Marti help.  So fun.

Spring Break 2013

Spring Break .....seems like everyone has gone on some fancy trip somewhere.  St George, California, Mexico, or a cruise.  But we opted today home.....it isnt like I didn't want to go on a trip...we just have no extra money.  Pain.  I did clean two bathrooms and cleaned the carpets on the stairs and in my car.  That was a HUGE accomplishment.  I went to the Dr, and drove Andrew on all his errands.  H is like my worst child for giving me assignments.  

We also golfed a few times, which was the first time for the season.

The boys and I went to the Hockey Game for the Utah Grizzleys.  Had a super fun time.  Had to leave early because Andrew had to go to his friends house. we got some free bags and beanie hats and water bottles.  We should have been going all season.  went to a play called The Odd Couple at Pioneer Memorial.  Went with Michelle, gpa and gma.  Loved it!

Then on Saturday we had a miracle.  Brooke went golfing with us.  Her very FIRST time.  She did great!  we started on the driving range, then decided to go on the par 3 course.  It was  
Great until jack and nick decided to fight.  Jack went after Nick with a golf club...then we lost a club and I had to find it a few holes back.  with all this golfing I am not getting any better.  But fun to make memories and spend time with those that matter most to me!!!
