Good morning all! I really don't know where the last 10 days have gone. I've had a bit of a cold - and still searching for a job. This past weekend, Taylor and Hinckley were sick. Hinckley discovered that she didn't like the "easy way" of treating Strep Throat - a shot. Alas! I love the easy way.
Other than that, just more of the same. Everything going pretty good - can't complain. Well, I guess I could but I really shouldn't because we are so blessed! I have been saddened to hear of other's misfortunes. It truly is a time of trial for all of us! I am glad I have the challenges I have. I think of my family and friends often and pray for the best for them.
Make it a good day!

Had to take a minute and share some funny stories with you. It's been a good week all in all - I think we're getting anxious to be moving out on our own. Still trying to enjoy the time here.....
Monday I babysat for a friend. She has 2 boys - one is a sunbeam, the other is Taylor's age. The little sunbeam was on my exercycle and didn't dismount very well - ended up hurting himself in his male nethers. He was pretty upset - and I didn't know how badly he was hurt. I called DJ for some male know-how. I told him what the situation was and asked if he would be OK. He assured me that he would. I still was unconvinced. The little guy sat on my lap for probably 10 minutes - slowly stopping crying. Finally, when he hopped down and asked for a cookie I believed that he was OK. I had to laugh at myself a bit - just because I really don't know anything about boys. Thank goodness for DJ's reassurance! I thought you mothers of boys would get a chuckle out of this....
I am pleased to report that my camera has been found! It was lost for over a week. DJ found it next to McKay's bed. I just shake my head! The amount of stress generated by not knowing where something I was wanting was located.....I'm just glad it's been found.
Had such a nice chat with Becky this week. So nice to get to visit!
Well, that's about it for today. We're all off to the dentist! Make it a great day!

So today I'm working on several things - one main one is uploading pictures to http://www.mybigfamiliespictures.shutterfly.com/
I realize that I have a TON of pictures that need to be more accessible to the world. It will probably take awhile to get them all on there.
We had a wonderful time at the temple on Saturday! Did quite a few sealings for family names. Really wonderful!

I'm purposefully sitting down to write a bit today. I think I'm just out of the habit. Still selling plasma - blood money I call it :) Waiting to hear about another job I applied for. We're planning to move out this summer - so will need a bit of additional support. I figure I might as well find it now versus later. I'll let you know how it goes.....I have been doing much family history - contacting descendants of Mimi's cousins for the most part. Trying to find someone to share family photos with - especially originals that are of the cousins. No need for our family to have them - and they just might be a treasure for someone else.
That takes up most of my free time these days. I just love sharing stories and pictures with others who might not otherwise know about them. In that effort - I will also be working on my stories site and another genealogy site where I talk about the sites I find most helpful and what I'm doing. Since both of those blogs are totally public and searchable I won't mention their names here. Like a bit of anonymity. If you are interested in them - email me and I'll let you know what they are.
