Go Oly

Nate has began Football season. Last Saturday was the big pre-season game. They played Skyline and won 22-0. Nate did well he kicked off and was a guard playing a great offense. I missed the first game but Layne said Nate did GREAT! Way to go #55. He also started 7th grade this week, He looked so Handsome his first day in his blue shirt and New Jeans!

Thanks for the flowers

Here is a recent photo of the beautiful flowers sent to me during my convalescences, the purple roses and Freesia came from my Parents and brother John. The daisy are from work. They remain at my bedside for enjoyment and I love them!

I'm Back

I'm back and determined to do well. Aug 19 2008 I had a successful hysterectomy. I'm now officially sterile, free of the curse and will save thousands each year by not purchasing tampons and pads!
Apparently it was not as easy as they hoped for but I lived and I'm home recovering feeling better each day. Honestly I never knew how painful going to the toilet could be until I had this surgery but I'm hopeful that will improve with healing and time.
I tried to be a good patient and was not too demanding of the overworked underpaid nurses. I was on the trauma surgical floor at Intermountian medical center in Murray Utah, I must say it was an excellent new facility with great HD TV and Jetson like outpatient pharmacy Kiosk's. Technology is amazing. Thanks to everyone for their prayers , support and care.....I love ya Man!

In Memory.......

One year ago July 24, 2007 my big Brother, Twain passed away . We do miss him and wish we would have had one more time to say I love you, go camping and fishing or just drank a beer together. We will be camping in his honor over the next four days. I'm sure he will be on the Mountain with us listening to KRCL sagebrush serenade and sending us a few shooting stars!

FOOTBALL BEGINS

Well today was the big day for the Olympus Ute football conference sign up. Nate was so excited. We arrived at the High School to proceed when we were suddenly surrounded by big round men in the Oly Green with husky voices and arms that would not go down at there sides. It was frightening I think they were on a steroid high.
Nate loved it and he starts with condition camp next week. He will then go to practice every night for two hours starting July 28Th and the first game is Aug 30. Now get this I either volunteered to help or paid them an additional 10 dollars so I volunteered Layne to set up the fields! He is the old Olympus football alumni. Oh and Get this.... the t-shirts we had to buy have not changed since Layne played in the 70's now that is progress! LOL

Weeding or not????

Chris and Nate were suppose to be weeding this area but it looks to me that Nate is about to get a mudd fart from Chris. Can Tide clean that mud off? Maybe they should take up mud wrestling???
