I thoroughly enjoyed reading the 99 things about Jen this morning. I was even more tickled that she replied! I didn't know those things about you, but I do now....
Looking forward to Rose Festival, it actually starts this evening at 5:00 and admission is free, but we intend to see the parade tomorrow night and fire works afterwards. Tatyana is so excited about that. Her last day of preschool will be on Tuesday June 7th. TJ is getting a plaque today that states something like "Thanks for making me be my best" and that just touches me. Teachers are so important in each person's life and they need to know that. It seems that on Wednesday, her teacher is going to be holding a small celebration for the students who have a birthday this summer and that would be Tatyana. Her birthday is the lucky 7/11 and Taty is very excited about that too. We are making plans for her birthday party and it looks like it will be held at Bowinkle's in Wilsonville. I went to the website yesterday and printed out all the information I could on it including a map. I think we are going to get separate invitations, because they have a theme there, so we'll just go with that. She only wants to invite the "girls" in her class, because the boys are "silly". She cracks me up!
According to the weather man, it is not supposed to rain on Friday or Saturday here! What a miracle in itself, since it's a public event and it always rains here in Oregon on a public event. Guaranteed for Rose Festival, Halloween, Easter, 4th of July. This year, we might get some grace, Thank God! Auntie Pam told me to talk with God and grandma about it, and low a behold, looks like they will be shining down on us for this spectacular event! Woo Hoo!
Today for lunch, I will be going to Meier & Frank for lunch to say good bye to one of the management there. Tomorrow is her last day and I said I would go say my good bye's to her before the week's end. Must hold to my word, and I have a little extra cash to do this with. I love their food anyway and look forward to my usual chicken strips with a salad and hot rolls. I'm ready and I have 3 hours yet to go~
I can hardly wait to talk to Jackie when she comes back on Monday to see about taking my classes here. It inspires me that Jennifer (our new pen pal) can manage 3 children at least one dog and one cat plus babies and still be well educated and have more goals set for herself, being a single parent. Being that I am married but still full time everything else, I can do it too! Teresa seemed burnt out by the time it was all said and done, but look what she has to show for it, a degree! I am so proud of her for sticking with it, regardless of the tiredness that comes with full time work, full time mom to two boys and school two days a week. If often wondered how she could do it, but when you set your mind to something, you can do it!!! That is my philosophy, I can do it! I also think I will be taking medical terminology 1 & 2, to help keep myself more rounded and in the best possible light for this position that I want.
Melanie is still not feeling so well today and I certainly hope she is not contageous. The weather changing here all the damn time doesn't keep anyone in the world's greatest shape. I've lived here my whole life, have webbed feet and roll fairly well with the changes.

Yeah, you CAN do it! My kids have been real troopers about it and I got so much help from my parents. Create a great support network and you can do anything. I am very sorry to hear about your dad. A very dear, dear friend/professor of mine succumbed to lung cancer this past September. It took many months for me to adjust to not seeing him. He kind of filled in for my dad for me after he moved away.
