First days of school






21 kids get on at this bus stop. Olivia's first day of Kindergarten and first time on the bus. She was so excited she wouldn't walk with me to the bus because I was too slow and she didn't want to miss the bus.
Anna just started 3rd grade. She is being such a good big sister to Olivia.

Michelle in Utah!!!


I can't believe I get to live near my cute sister, Michelle. We haven't lived near each other in 24 years. When I was 19 and she was 23 we moved in together in an apartment in Salt Lake our rent was $200 per month (how old are we?). So many fun memories living with her, easiest person in the world to get along with.

Rosie

Our sweet Rosie can't see right now. The retina in both eyes are detached so she can't see. This happened two days ago, they have a bunch of tests going on right now to see what is wrong. We hopefully will know Monday whether she will get her sight back or not. It is so sad to watch, she seems to startle if she sees movement but she can't see her food bowl in front of her.
Must admit I was a bit emotional about the whole thing yesterday, couldn't seem to stop crying. Feeling bad for Rosie then getting the bill just for f***ing tests was enough to send anyone into depression. After shelling out $1,050.00 for all sorts, I went to the pharmacy for 2 more types of drops for her eyes and it was $187. Oh that poor pharmacist she got me at the end of a very emotional and expensive day, just burst out into tears, she didn't know quite what to do.
Feel better today, Rosie's eyes look so much better, she still can't see. This is a picture of her today, yesterday her eyes were about double this size, doc said they were full of blood.
