20 months!
Wow! I can't beleive how fast time goes. Today is 20 months smoke-free! Yahoo!!!! I tell you, I still have days when I think a cigarette would be just what I needed (like this morning driving in the snow) but then I think "How would it REALLY be to have that smoke? It is really amazing to me that I made it this far considering that I didn't really want to quit; I liked smoking! Thank heavans for my sister who saved me!

Christmas dance
Tonight's the night for the junior high Christmas dance. We successfully found some clothes for Josh to be able to wear. I told him he better dance wirh a girl so the clothes will be worth it. I will have to take a picture of him all dressed up before he goes to the dance. It's not very often he looks like that anyway.

It's almost Christmas and I'm afraid I haven't been very good at keeping this blog updated.
We are just plugging along, or trying to anyways. Marlin had his neck surgery back in July and we have since found out that they messed up his diaphragm when they were in there cause now his diaphragm is paralyzed open and any time he exerts himself he can't breathe. Nice, huh? And the thing that's really bad is that the doctor at the VA that did his neck surgery won't even own up to it. So he's had to file for an increase in his permanent disability, which they declined the first time and he's had to appeal that decision. So, needless to say, he hasn't been working and will probably end up closing his business. Too ad, it was going really good till this came along.
Josh is still swimming and doing well in school. Still can't believe he's in the 9th grade now! He has already picked out the car he wants when he's old enough to drive. I told him he better start doing a lot more chores around the house and saving his money. He wants one of the new Ford Mustangs, bright green if you can imagine.
We are going to get our and get the rest of our shopping done on Saturday. We were supposed to go get it done last Sunday but he slept till 11 and by that time I had lost all my ambition.
He has a school dance tomorrow night and we have to go down tonight to get him some dress pants. I hope we can find some that fit him....
