A Little Luck and Fewer Piles

Dear Brian,

I think your good luck rubbed off on me!  I'm a part of a group that teaches and trains how to change your lifestyle for a more healthy one.  It's text based, you answer questions and participate that way.  Every time you answer a question correctly, your name goes in for the drawing for a $250 gift card -- and I won one!!!!!   Used it today at Walmart -- 2 weeks groceries and 2 pairs of Levi's for work = $0 out of pocket. 

I just posted the photos of your trip to Space Camp in Alabama (1999) and it brought back such good memories.  You were a little apprehensive about going, but Judy (your vision teacher) was going along, so I knew you'd be OK.  Once you came back, you didn't stop talking about all the cool things you got to see and do.  From the photos, it looks like it was a fantastic opportunity!

I started tackling some of the "little piles everywhere" -- but I keep getting distracted.  I started unloading the dishwasher and ended up re-doing the silverware drawer and the plastics shelf.  I think I have too many of all of these things now! lol  But we'll just keep things as they are for now.  I started cleaning out in the garage.  Alonzo has your bike and bike parts.  He will be able to use it to go back and forth to school, same some $$ on gas, even if it isn't every day.  Dumped out your fuels into kitty litter.  Sorted out some of the nuts, bolts and washers that were in every tool drawer lol  Now they're all back in their compartments!

They've changed my work schedule and now my two days off are Sat and Weds.  WTF is up with that?  Not what I signed up for .....  if there was a way I could retire right now, I would.  Right now isn't the time to be making changes.  Wish it was! I've been pondering options - moving to CA, or to Tucson.  Or staying in town, getting something smaller, maybe in a 55+ community.  It's too soon, but if you can foresee something ... let me know, ok?  :)

Time to get back to the rest of the little piles ....
Love,
Mom
