Long time no see

I can't believe it's been so long. I have to admit that I pretty much forgot that this place even existed.

We're living in Conrad now. It's really nice to be here, although sometimes it's a little too small. We haven't done much to fix up the house in a very long time, but I'm hoping that will soon change. There's so much to do.

I've been under the weather lately, but I can feel myself getting better. I can't wait to be over this coughing up of chunky stuff.

My mom is living here in town now. She has her own place not too far from here. Lately I've been spending a lot of time over there. I feel bad for neglecting my father who hasn't seen much of me in about 4 days.

Eva and Maria moved to Yakima. We were really sad to see them go, but I'm starting to think that it was a good move for them. They seem to be happy about their decision-as sad as it is for us. Tina took it especially hard-which surprised the hell outta me. She cried all the way from Yakima to Moses Lake. That's a good hour and a half drive.

It may be that Lillian comes to visit for the summer. I'm not really sure which way it'll go at the moment because of the money situation for Deb. I know that it would be fun for Tina and I to have her come visit, but at the same time, I know it's going to be a lot of work, too. Not having children of our own, it'll be a major adjustment...We'll see what happens.

I've picked up a new hobby: gardening. I haven't the slightest idea what I'm doing, but I'm hoping for the best. I jumped the gun and started some seeds inside the house. Now they're about to take over my laundry room so I have to get a greenhouse FAST! I've been researching them online, but so far haven't come to a decision.

There's so much work to be done this summer! I can't wait. There's snow on the ground right now. I can't believe it! It's April. And there's snow.

Tina and I are doing really well. She really likes living in our tiny house..and more amazing: she enjoys the drive all the way to Great Falls. That's 60 miles to and from. I couldn't do it, that's for sure.

Laters...
