Fishing

Today we got up early and took the kids fishing. This lake that was closest to us wasn't frozen over, but the other lake 10 minutes away was still frozen. They are getting better at the fishing thing. No bites, but great get away.

Big plans for the month of June

I was talking small talk to my sister the other day. When the topic of plans for the summer came up. She happen to mention that the babysitter for her daughter was going to be gone the whole month of June and she didn't know what she was going to do. I only had a few things to do that month, but nothing was pressing that my niece could come here, but that wasn't in the cards. So, we both remembered that mom and dad were coming the end of May and could take me and the kids back home with them. Great idea now how to get home. On a flight home with two kids is going to be interesting. Well I booked it anyways for the 30th of June to come home. So, me and the kids will be in Bakersfield for the whole month of June. We are planning a couple of family parties that way I can see my whole family at one time because it looks like we won't be able to make it back for Thanksgiving this year. I would like to see as many friends as I can during that time. I will keep in touch.

UPDATE

After breaking another bone about 2 weeks ago. I asked for a bone density test to be done. Well the test just came back today. I have Osteopenia which is 1 step away from Osteoporosis. For the rest of my life I will need to take 1200 mg of Calcium w/carbonate and 400-800 mg of vitamin D to try and get my bones stronger. I will also have to do the bone density test every 3-5 years. For my family and friends reading this. WARNING drink milk. For I was never one to drink milk for those healthy bones. I'm going to pay for it. Which I was warned plenty of times. "MOM & DAD", but I never listened.

OOPS I did it again.

Last Friday night I was playing outback with the kids. I took a step off of the porch and not paying attention stepped right into a hole the kids created last year. I went down with a loud pop from my ankle. I thought I sprained it, but it turns out that I broke a bone. I was 1 inch away from surgery. I'm in the process of physical therapy and I am able to use the famous boot from a few years back to walk. Great that's all I need right know. My family has been really helpfull this past week. It's great to take a break from the house work and cooking.
