ok, i thought it had been a long time since i last posted... but now, it went from Feb 10 to March 4th.  augh....
where have i been this time????

i really don't know.... lets see what i can remember

one day, the girls & i were hauling wood to the deck, but it had been very warm and a lot of snow melted, but then it got cold again, so our yard & driveway is all ice.  then it snowed a little on top of that ice. i took one hard fall and two close calls, the wood i was carrying went flying, but i stayed up on my feet.  Steph on the other hand, fell hard 3 times and 2 times while trying to get up fell.  She was covered in bruises, i just a very sore knee & a swollen knob on my leg and a black & blue mark on my leg.  Her recovery time took longer than mine. 

oh a sister from Duluth, had invited me to a Purse Party, but i wasn't up to going (what else is new).  but i got to see one of the purses another sister bought and I showed it to Steph and she was so excited, and she decided to book a show.  So on the 19th Steph will host her first party.  She still has to figure out what food she is going to make.  I suggested she have the party in the afternoon, so that she can just have appetizers and that will be easier for her.   i did help her by sending out emails and figuring out a date.  but that is pretty much all i am doing.  she is doing all of the rest.

i turned in my application to aux. pion. in April.  I am going for the 30.  So all four of us will aux. pion.  first time ever for all of us.  so excited!  The elders have also been collecting addresses for the few of us, who can't do much, but can do letter writing.  i couldn't believe it when they told me that.

what else has happened around here.... Eo has been looking for a car.  Grandma decided to sell her car, and put that money towards a car for Steph.  Steph is getting a bike from the other Grandma.  So she will use that for work, besides walking.  Then by the end of the summer she should be able to pick up a car.

I don't know if we will sell our van, or give it to Lauren. Lauren really wants it.  So we will see.

what else?  We are still having some issues with getting paid for working for my mom.  this last time, they put both eo & Lauren's check in Lauren's name.  So we are still waiting to get paid.  Feb was a tough month with so little money.  We got our taxes back, but that had to go to other bills.  i do hope one of these days, we won't have these problems with getting paid.  Lauren had to wait until late into Jan, before she got paid for Nov & Dec.  Then Feb, another goof.

The girls are helping more, as i am just getting worse with my health.  i can't seem to do any scrubbing anymore.  so much pain in my arms & neck when i try.  i really believe i have some sort of birth defect, since i was a little kid, i have had pain when i try to cut meat or scrub.  Not just in my hands but up my arms, in my shoulders & neck.  i don't know anyone who has that kind of pain.  i have always had to put my weight into scrubbing. to do it.  i don't know, it isn't like it matters.

moving right along...

with almost a month going by, you would think i would have more to relate....   it has been a rough month, it seems that every other day sometimes every day, i am running a temp now.  ?????  when did i type that???  i know i thought it, but i was busy watching DWTS season 11... (gearing up for season 12 which starts on the 21st)  so, yeah, watching it, and didn't even know i wrote i am running a temp... go figure how the brain works... it is too deep for me haha

so i asked Steph if she would take up the challenge to walk with me everyday.  i know i won't feel up to walking far every day, but some is better than none, even if i can only get to the mailbox & back.  today we walked to the k hall, then we vacuumed & emptied the garbage.  but i was too pooped to walk back so eo gave me a ride home.  which was fine, as we had to haul the garbage anyway.  Steph walked home though.

April is currently here with her baby for a week.  Saturday they are having an open house, to see her & the baby.  that will be nice. 

i just can't remember anything else right now.
