Hello and a blessed New year to all. We are still in Michigan working though "our issues" and your continued prayers for us and the family we are staying with are greatly appreciated. There is no high-speed where we are and cell reception is flakey so that rules out the air-speed as well. We make many trips to the library to check out emails, facebook and for a bed on Freecycle. We REALLY REALLY need a bed, lol, and the spill in the next paragraph is not helped by getting up from the floor 3x a night.




I have some pulled muscles in my hamstrings, thighs and groin as I got my foot caught in a stray piece of tupperware on the kitchen floor (don't ask... I have been cleaning up clutter for these people for 6 weeks now) and ended up doing the SPLITS which is not a pretty sight for a woman of my size. Speaking of size even with the added Christmas weight and all those cookies I finally got weighed and I am down 20# from where I was at last weigh in 6 or so years ago... Down rather than up..... I'll take it.



My computer took another dump (and it is not even online) so we are reformatting AGAIN I am thankful all my files were still on my extra HD. I really need to work on my Resume and i didn't loose those files. HOPEFULLY I didn't loose Open Office as I will need that as well. For those of you on Facebook I have pics up from my friends familys Christmas gig and our November visit with the girls. Sabrina came up Dec. 23rd to have a piece of Harley's Birthday cake (he is now 16, but has special needs and will not be driving) and brought me a Latte` mug from her L A missions trip last summer.



Maggie loves Michigan and being in the country and running loose though the snow. She also loved having all thise people around.... lol as long as they stay out of our room (which has to be passed through to get to the laundry as it is "poker" or family room and not a bedroom).... she can be quite the little protectress.
