Life Goes On

Briana was well by yesterday morning. Thank goodness, no swine flu. Mary Ann's daughter is well, too. So far no one else in our families is sick. I guess we dodged the bullet on that one. But we had to err on the side of safety since we are in the first pandemic declared by the WHO in 41 years. Wild!

Today my mom is having a biopsy on her breast. We are in fast and pray mode for her.

Amy is loving Montana--great news for her!

Work is crazy busy. This is the second week of only one clerk, so everything is piling up fast. Since I was gone before, my pile seems especially large. The good part of that is that it makes the day fly by!

Taylor is filling out job apps. Briana is filling out invitation envelopes for our graduation party.

Spence and I are headed to a senior recital for Briana's friend, Anna Willis, this evening.

We all went to the dollar movies for Family Home Leaving last night. We saw "17 Again." Again.

So, all in all, life goes on.

Life Goes On

I broke a molar on Saturday. This happened while I was eating popcorn and watching "Homeward Bound." No, I wasn't gnawing on kernals, but one must have slipped in, because the next thing I knew, a large chunk of my tooth was missing. This morning I had the joy of visiting the dentist (who I actually really like on a personal level). He shot and drilled and molded and finally fitted me with a temporary crown for that tooth.

Spencer is on his 3rd to last class before he has his bachelor's degree. He's getting really trunky (his word). Bri says he just has Senioritis. He talked about continuing on for a master's, but changes in rules at Boeing (who has paid for school)--along with Senioritis--have left him saying no for now.

Last night Spencer spent a couple of hours fighting with our computer, which, apparently, received a bug of some kind. He wasn't feeling peachy when we went to bed. And he was the one who was cold and snuggled up to me to get warm. Weird.

Landon and Ashtyn are involved with a play at their school. It's called "Cinderella's Glass Slipper." Landon is part of the chorus, and Ashtyn is the fairy godmother's apprentice. I took them to play practice and just giggled at all of the girls dressed up their gowns (there were seriously some lovely dresses in the gym!) and all of the boys in white tights, knickers, and lacy dickies. They looked awesome. We'll be sure and take pictures when they perform.

The girls and I went to Orem last night to see my grandparents. Grandma's having an angiogram today. My uncle is having some colon tests done today. I've tried to call the rheumatologist and the neurologist today for Ashtyn, who is still mysteriously ill every couple of weeks.

Life is busy. There are worries. But life goes on, and we are so grateful!
