Well, I am still here. Not fnished yet. Windows in tho. Still can't get in to post new blogs. Don't know what I am doing wrong.

Anyway, Teresa is going in for surgery on March 8th. Was supposed to happen on the 22nd but was changed due to the weather. She is finally getting a hysterectomy to remedy her medical problems. Yeah!!! She will be so much better. I will be over there for about 10 days or so. Depending on how long I will be needed there. I am taking some time off work but may have to add another weekend. will just have to wait and see. They are snowed in with power out today. Don't know if it is back on yet or not. I have about 8 inches here now.

Anyway, that is the newest with us. Bj had pneumonia couple of weeks ago. He is now better and back to work. Me, I am still hanging in there.

Love you all and miss you.

We have moved to Vancouver, and no longer at the house in St. Helens, looking to buy in Washington, as Jess is happy here, but to cold also. Looking for a warmer climate, as the rod in Jess's leg hurts him a lot. So, all the house is gone, and happy with who bought has it now. He took the cat's, and the dog's are boarded at there vet's, Tipper has cancer, so don't know how much longer she'll have. We have found some places we like. But, Jess also wants a place in the sun for the wenter. I have been going through, everything, and down to the paperwork to file, so it's going great. Jess is talking about going with me, when I go out of country,...

Lueria is on a much needed vacation.

Lisi is happy and doing so great, back to her old self,.... and so happy with Bonnie and Rick.

Suzy is doing great, also. She is busy with her family, and we love seeing her.

I am looking forward to a family picture with all of us in it, sometime, if we can connect again. Glenda is coming down, and us girls are going to have a picture done with Bonnie, at our age of 60!!!! It will be fun, all five of us girls,....

God is Good
Love to all Lili

WOW!!!!!
thanks for posting. Both of you.
i know life gets over-whelming at times. but it is good to hear that people are still alive,
Illa, give Teresa my best and let her know im thinking of her. I hope all goes well with the surgery and she gets the results she is looking for. Sorry B.J. has had issues. Sounds like hes on the road to recovery.I have had it . no fun.
I want snow. But, i guess if i want it that bad i can drive an hour up to the high country and get it.

Lili good to hear that you sold the house. One less thin to worry about. Its been cold here too. this next week it suppose to be in the low 50s and mid 30s. All last week it was in the high 60s and even got up to 72. It has been raining for the last couple of days, and i love it.
I know what you mean buy Jess feeling pain. I get it a little at times. Especially when the weather changes.

Dick, one thing about Jess having to stay in Vancouver, while in treatment, he found he really does like it, to be able to go to Burgervill or out some where late at night, for his coffee, as there is some place open all the time. Thanks for the help you gave me, as you are aware what

I had to deal with, in St. Helens, great to have the lawyer backing me on this, as he went out to see. I want to say thank you to ALL the family that helped me, at this time. I had to take a stand, with the lawyers and doctors. (Jess did see he liked Vancouver, also I supported him, and let him find out for himself, what he could do and not do). He does like having Rick and Bonnie, here, and I look for the day he can see Chuck, I know he will like him, a lot like Ben, also, I see so much in all of us, we have had hard times all of us, but strong for it. I love you guy's as much as my sisters. I see, the caring part's of you, also the strong part's of your being, that is from what you have all gotten from your dad's, and also the part from our mom, bad and good, laugh!!!

Dick, thank you for being my brother, and I do love you. Be strong and you are wonderful with Chuck, and it's great to see you, work as a team with him. (I love the snow also, and what you share on the blog., are some of the spots, I also miss from my time, down there. Great places, also I did not have the allergies and problems, I have had in St. Helens, even here. I seem to need the higher area, and clean air. Though I would not have it easy camping, would need a little trailor to do so, Lis, Bonnie and Rick, have the RV, and they have fun with it, as we bought it for Lis, so she could visit and get out to have fun.

Love to all, also give Chuck a hug for me.

It's great to hear how every one is doing; but sorry to hear of the second gens health issues. I got a note from Glenda today, maybe this is old news to you all; since I think Glenda might be on Facebook (I don't do FB, so out of the loop on some things) she's moved to Napa to be closer to Julee. Lydia is back home from Arizona, and they are both looking for work. Julee has her own place. She says it's wonderful having Lydia back.

Ya, i didn't blogg it because i wasn't sure how much G wanted it passed around. Now she cant blame me. ;)
Now you have to deal with our big sister.

Illa said...

At least that brings her a bit closer to everyone. Which is cool. glad that Lydia is back. Tiesha is still in New York? How is she doing? We have snow here. Lots of it finally. Sure going to put a hitch in the trees plans tho. they were all starting to bud out. Went to Redding on Wed. the friut trees were all flowering. very pretty but they got snow yesterday.

Watching Nascar today. Have to get ready for work in about 1/2 hour. boy does time fly whether you are having fun or not. Have had a lot of lock work in the last 2 months. pretty good. We have a new locksmith in the valley. probably going to put a crimp in my business.
Wish I had the where with all to really expand the business and hire someone, as it is it may be a little cut throat but oh well. will have to see how he does. I have been working on model A locks lately which is pretty cool. one more waiting in the wings as the guy had to bring me the lock yet. At least I have repeat customers that will stick with me. Tried to get the State contract back but all lock work has to come out of the main system now. Boo, so much for the law that states that all work needs to come from local people. Oh well, at least I still will get any emergency work that comes up.

Anyway, hope all is well with everyone. I am doing fine. Love and miss you all. Talk to you later.

Yeah Illa, I've got new competition too, but it has my competitive juices flowing too, getting back 'the eye of the tiger' a bit. learning new stuff which is fun.

Glenda told me not to blab to anyone about all that I said on this blog, let that be a lesson to all of you! Just kidding, she didn't. But like I tell people, 'I'm getting to old to remember to keep my mouth shut, so don't tell me if it's a secret. Too many secrets in this world anyway.

Don't tell anyone, but Karen and I are going to partially retire when we sell our house. So if you know anyone with the big bucks, send em my way. But don't tell em why I'm selling.

Illa said...

Hope you do well. Wish I knew someone to send your way. Sorry. Love you guys.

Rick and I lost our little Triscuit last night at 5:45 and buried her this morning. This has been a very hard day to say the least. Rick is now running a fever of 103 and not doing well right now.
We feel we have lost a child so life is hard right now.

Jim said...

Bonnie and Rick,
Sorry to hear that you lost your little friend, Triscuit. These pets that we own sure bring us a lot of pleasure when they're here and pain when they pass. Thinking of the both of you and hope that Rick is feeling better.

Peter said...

So sorry. Karen and I have lost a few ourselves. There's always a huge hole for a long time when they're gone.

Bonnie said...

Jim, We don't own them, they own us.

Illa said...

That is so true. I had to put down a cat last week and it tore me apart. It had been struggling for the last couple of months to survive but was just totally losing. i didn't have the heart to continue on. It had so much brain damage from before and so much kidney and liver damage that even if it had survived it would not be right. I couldn't see making it suffer any longer just because I could not destroy a life.

Triscit is in a better place and waiting for you at the Rainbow Bridge. I get a little chuckle when I think of Ben crossing and all the animals waiting for us. He is probably cursing me out.

I hope that Rick gets to feeling better. I send my love and strength to you both.

Dear Illa, I can see it also, laugh, he'd be out numbered, and could just see him on his butt with kisses all over, and a blanket of those pet's, also send a prayer, that our own, would join in, as we had dog's and pet's, that were at the family gatherings. So, they would know each other, can you just see it!!!! :)

What a day it will be when we are joined, with our pet's, so Ben, really has something to look for, as each of are joined, and our pets, what a day that will be, and what wonderful fun we will plan, then Ben, on let's see what we can plan for the next member comes over the rainbow bridge.

Know when MY time comes, how I look forward to all my pet's, it will be fun, you can be sure!!!! How much fun, to plan with those that have come over the bridge!!!!

I do plan on a great big, surprise, for all!!!! :)

love to all Lili
