We've been taking a lot of criticism lately.... but we're not crazy!!!
I took Sheba kitty to the vet Tuesday for a huge lump on her side... She had been seen 2 months ago, and we were told it was nothing to worry about.... This time, I was told, a malignant tumor!!! Bigger than a baseball!!! So, we had xrays & blood work done to ensure that her kidneys were okay, before we decided anything further.... So Tuesday night she went through surgery, and came out just fine.... Half her body is stitches though.... She is on antibiotics, and new prescription food... We go back Monday to have the drain removed....
So, why the criticism? Because she's almost 17 years old.... Everyone keeps saying that I should have just had her put down....
Well, guess what? Our cat, our money.... My cat is a fighter, and is no where near ready to be put to sleep....

Happy New Year!!!
What a great year 2009 was.... Praying that 2010 is even better....
It's been a month since I last updated.... Guess I've been a little busy.....
My 30th birthday has come and gone.... 30 is not that bad, really.... LOL....
We had a great Christmas.... Spent Christmas Eve with Scott's family, and my boss Mark joined us also.... Christmas Day was spent working, at the restaurant.... We had a buffet, with a great turn out....
New Years Eve was spent at home with a visit from the kids.... We did "Christmas" with them then.... I do believe we chose gifts that "made their days".... LOL.... New Years Day was spent again with Scott's family & the kids....
A quick update on everyone....
Scottie; is still in Florida... just recently started a new job, that he seems to enjoy and is paying well enough.... I'm sure he's not missing any of this snow at all....
Tony & Nikki; are doing well.... Even after Tony's accident on Christmas Day night.... He scared us all, but no major injuries & is healing well....
Rylin; is as cute as ever!!! and pooped in the big potty for the first time yesterday!!!!
Darren; is loving his job as a cook at the restaurant.... Tomorrow he will be moving back home for a few months.... It's a wise choice, with rent so high at his house, and the driveway about impassable at times.... We will enjoy having him at home....
Scott; is well.... Keeping busy cutting firewood... and helping the kids with car problems, etc.... He's had a great year at his job.... and is still loving it.... He works for some really great people.... He's been great about helping out around the house also.... What a great husband I have!!!
Myself; well.... I'm good.... No complaints.... Rice Bags are in demand right now.... and between the kids, restaurant, and the house I'm keeping busy.... I like it that way..... I'm still adjusting to "working".... it had been so long, 7 years to be exact.... So it will take a while to really adjust to everything.... I love who I work for & with.... Everyone is great.....
January seems to have jumped at us like a big 'ole lion.... BRRR.... Cold & very windy!!!! I'm on countdown for spring.... Can't wait to plant my garden & play in the flower beds.....
Well I must go.... still some housework to tackle this afternoon.... then I work later....
Until next time.... Be safe....

Well... Well.... Well...
Here it's been another month and a half since I've been able to update.... Things have been BuSy around here....
November had come and gone.... Scott had a great 45th birthday.... We spent most of the day together.... I took him to Gander Mountain in Harrisburg.... I had to work in the evening, so he spent the time at home with family & friends celebrating his day.... Last Monday started Bear hunting.... Scott was 1 of 8 lucky Perry County hunters to "bag one" in county.... Thanksgiving was great.... I worked.... We held an All You Can Eat Buffet at the restaurant.... Scott, His Mom, & Sister came and enjoyed Mark's wonderful food....
Yesterday was my Dad's birthday... I was able to talk to him for a short time.... We'll talk again Friday (on MY BiRTHDay!!!!).....
Scottie is still in Florida.... Jobs are scarce, as they are everywhere.... He's hopeful about a call back he received.... He was able to spend the Holiday with some of his Mom's family.... I miss him terribly....
Tony & Nikki are doing well.... He's working when needed for our friend Jeff.... Rylin is doing great.... Such a little cutie....
Darren is doing GREAT!!! He loves his job at the restaurant.... He got his license back.... and now has 2 vehicles on the road.... His car, and a 4x4 truck that was given to us....
well, I must get off here.... I have a class for work on Monday, and I have yet to even open the book.... =)

I seem to have put my blog on the "back burner" since starting my job! There's just a ton to do, with such little time....
I did find a few minutes this week to shop for apples (for applesauce), and pumpkins & mums to decorate the front of the house....

Yep, that's a tiny bit of snow left on the ground.... Ugh, I'm so not ready for this.... We are burning in the wood stove, and it's nice & toasty inside.....

The housework at times seems to get away from me also.... Then I get a huge burst of energy, and it's done.... Scott helps where he can, most of his "to do" is outside, getting things ready for winter....
We were able to get the dog kennel up, Bear is officially off his logging chain.... He's still trying to understand the fence.... I went out yesterday and put a blue tarp over the top to keep him out of the nasty weather the best I can....
The garden is done for the year.... We will spend Monday evening digging potatoes, it is to be fairly nice and we'll both be home! I bought a bushel of apples, and plan to tackle applesauce at some point this weekend!!
Today is my sister in laws 50th birthday.... Happy Birthday Cindy!! Hope you enjoy your birthday!!
Well, I'm off for now.... I've got a few things to jump into before heading to work this afternoon!!
Have a great weekend!!!!

September 23, 1998...
Yep, that's 11 years ago.... Scott & I were married....
We didn't tell anyone.... Went to the courthouse, got our marriage license.... and a few days later went into the local magistrates office with Scottie following behind (blindly).... We were married within a few minutes, and back home to continue our afternoon!
And guess what?
I'd do it all over, exactly the same way again.... Okay, maybe I would have changed one thing.... I would have liked to have had Tony & Darren with us also....
but, after 11 years things just keep getting better.... and life is great!!!!

Things are looking up....
Finally.....
I am really enjoying my new job.... I've always been such a people person, and now my personality gets to come out each and every day.... I am trying to get along with everyone that I work with.... I absolutely love my boss and his wife.... they're great people.... and working with Brian is great.... He is such a great kid....
Scott had been coming in on the weekends and tackling dishes for us, until the dishwasher gets fixed.... He is also still working long hours at work being the only service guy....
Home & garden have kind taken a back seat for a short time.... While I adjust to working again.... I might tackle some tomatoes after I'm done online.... I finished most of my housework this morning.... Laundry I will attempt Monday when it is bright & shiny out....
We have a few praises & a couple prayer requests....
Praise; Darren has finally gotten a job.... he is an assistant cook at the restaurant.... Today is his first day.... Brian is training him today....
Praise; Tony & Nikki have found a new place & are all settled in.... It's about 4 miles from here, right across the street from Scott's work....
Prayer; Scottie is not moving to Florida.... and I guess is looking for a place to live....
Prayer; All 3 of the boys are not getting along.... I am very upset about this, but not getting involved....
Well I am off... .Thanks for reading.... Have a great weekend....

Today I am officially .........
a working woman.....
LOL.... At 3:00 will be my first shift at the Little's Cafe, 4 miles down the road....
I'm a little nervous... I've never done this before.... I think if I get the 1st table "under my belt", I'll be okay.....
Scott and I went for breakfast this morning.... It was delicious..... I've spent the rest of my day cleaning & playing online.... Scott will stop by the the diner for supper tonight....
So I guess I better finish getting ready.... I have to pick up Brian on my way....
Pray for us....
