Spring Break

This past week has been Spring Break for us. It was much needed. I couldn't believe how ready I was for Spring Break to arrive. Thankfully we've had a break in the weather too. It started to warm up and then took a turn for the colder side just before break. I think this is the first spring break in at least 5 or 6 years that it hasn't rained or snow the whole time. It was actually pleasant the whole week. We had occasional rain showers, mostly at night or very light and warm during the day. I took this time to catch up on some much needed exercise. Tried a little insanity workout (5 min. was all I could do), did some kickboxing a couple times, gardening, and some walking. I tried to get caught up on my laundry. I did a bunch but still have a ways to go. However, I did get the clean stuff put away for a change, instead of just adding to the pile. I went to see the eye doctor to find out that what little cataracts I have  may be getting worse. If it doesn't bother me too much I can leave it be or if it's too annoying I could have them removed and probably see alot better. It's not urgent. I'm just having some difficulty seeing people's faces at a distance if there is bright light behind them. I see their outline but not what's in the center. It's kind of a drag sometimes, but not annoying enough yet to consider surgery. I finally got my tax stuff all collected and dropped off to the CPA.

try a little catch up

Wow, so I looked at my blog and realized I'm terribly behind.... So Marissa and Rachelle both had their babies end of June 2012. Keilani Marie Castro and  Rebekah Calista Palmer.  We went to visit each of them. While in the Longview area, we stayed with Emily and Andy. We met Cullen and had plenty of fun getting to know our newest grandson. Luck was with us and we were able to go for a visit again in December. Sean went with us too. While there at Emily's house we got to do a video chat with Tanner in the Netherlands. It was so good to see him and hear his voice. He was doing well. We had a good Christmas vacation with them except that I became very sick. That put a damper on things., but I tried not to let it get me down though.
