howdy again!

Hello
Yesterday was a long busy day! RB ran in a 5k race and came in seventh! How awesome is that!! There were about thirty five people in his category. I am so proud of him! He celebrated his birthday on Friday, but he was more excited about the race he was going to be doing the next day. Also yesterday my sister graduated from college with her associates degree! Yay for Ashley!
I had my toe surgery on Thursday. It was much better to be put to sleep! Although the whole process took longer because of being put to sleep. My toe bruised a lot more then my other one did! Honestly, it doesn't look pretty! I don't think it was such a great idea to be walking on it so much yesterday, it really hurt last night. Oh well, I wanted to be with family! So I guess it was worth it.

I started redoing my strawberry patch on Wednesday, didn't quite get it finished and probably won't until my toe is feeling better and I can actually where shoes!

So I have tons of vegetables starts to plant. I have just been waiting on the weather to stay warm. It looks like this week might be the week! We will have to see.

hi...

Well today is Monday, as you probably all know. I have been watching the stream in my back yard off and on all day. There has been a bunch of flooding around here and I have been a little bit worried since there is a stream in my back yard. All is well though! No flooding so far at our house. Thank you for the people who texted me to ask if we had been flooded. Makes me feel all thankful for the people I know!
I went to my nieces bday party on Saturday. It was super fun to see some of my family. I can't believe how time flies, it really seemed like last week I was at her one year old party. My other niece is getting her tonsils out tomorrow. Hope thongs go super well for her and her family.
Today I went and ate at ihop for a late breakfast/early lunch. That place just doesn't seem to be as yummy as it used to be to me. Ever since I had the breakfast food on the cruise, I have been craving French toast with banana caramel syrup! So yummy, I had it like every morning on the cruise!
I finished the last book in a series I had been reading. It ended well, except I don't like when they end the series with unanswered questions...... the series was called the faierie path. It has six books. The sixth just came out in January.
I am pretty sure I have had a bug for a little bit. It hasnt effected me to much except for a sore throat and sleeping a bit more than usual.
I have been crocheting these cute hats like crazy! I think I posted a pic of one in my last post. If not I will post one next time.
This post has been jumping from subject to subject. Hope ya don't mind.
I made stir fry today, it wassup pretty yummy.
Ok well I guess I am gonna go.
Bye

Plants

Hi

I have some pictures to show you all!!

This first one is of my first little sprout that came up in my mini greenhouse!!
This is when A bunch had sprouted!!
and this is how they look today!! ummmm I don't think I am going to have enough room in my garden. Pumpkins, Watermelons, Cantalope, Cauliflour, Cucumbers, and Peppers are just some of the plants in here!! It needs to warm up a lot so I can get these planted! It probably won't be for a couple of weeks!!



This is a hat that I recently made!! Isn't it so cute?? I am going to be taking it to my family reunion and puting it in the chinese auction we have every year!





There have been deer living in my back yard for a couple of days now:) It is fun to watch them!

not brave

Hello! So I went back to the doctors for him to check up on how my toe was doing. He said it looked good. I am sorry to say that I was not brave enough for him to do my other toe.......I feel like a wimp, but those numbing shots really really hurt. I almost passed out....went into shock and then cried!! I am going to be put to sleep so he can do the other.........is that bad? Somebody tell me that it isn't bad so I don't feel like such a wimp, please! I don't mind needles, I get my flu shot every year, and i get blood drawn frequently. It doesn't bug me, so I thought I would be just fine for my toe. I was gonna have them both done the same day, but after he put the shots into my one foot I was not doing that again! I don't understand why it hurt so bad......maybe my brain made it worse than it actually was.
So, besides my toe not much else going on. It snowed a lot today. The snow flakes were the size of quarters at least!
Ok bye!

Hi
It has been about two weeks since I had my toe worked on and it is looking pretty spiffy! It doesn't hurt much anymore. I am scared for my check up appoitment, I might not be brave enough for the doctor to do my other toe.
I went for a bike ride on Friday. RB ran while I biked. It was pretty fun. I think it wore me out a bit to much because I have slept a lot this weekend. It was a very sunny day and I enjoyed it though.
My plants have started sprouting all over the place in my mini greenhouse! I will have to take a picture to show you, but they are thriving and loving life! My peas have not sprouted yet, but I didn't expect them to, at least not for a couple more days.
I follow a blog from a family in my old ward, one of their daughters was sick with leukemia. She passed away just a couple of days ago kind of unexpectadly. She had just finished chemo before they were to do a bone marrow transplant. I have been reading her blog since they found out in 2009. It just shocked me when I read that she had passed away, she was only nineteen! I have really started to become a hater of cancer! I mean I was always a hater, but I keep knowing so many people who have died from cancer in the last little bit of my life. Every time someone passes away from cancer it just makes me hate it even more!

Sorry, Just had to say something about that!

I enjoyed listening to general conferance today. It was nice. I didn't get to listen to much yesterday because I kept falling asleep. Silly me!

Now It is time to sign off and go join RB in the other room, who is probably wathing "Whose line is it anyway?"

Fun show

Bye

aloha!

Hello my fellow citizens of this fair place we live!
Today was a great day in the life of moi! I planted peas and some carrots in my garden! I am going to have a lot more peas in my garden than last year. I am excited, hopefully I can freeze some this year. I showed a picture of the seeds I planted indoors on my previous post. Three have germinated! Yay! I hope more than that germinate!
I had cousins come visit today! It was fun. They invited me to go bowling, but we didn't go. I realized after they left I couldn't have gone anyway because of my toe! I guess that brings me up to update you on my toe. It is going good. I can't quite where shoes, except for flip flops. They work great. Other shoes make it hurt and feel uncomfortable.
Tonight we ate at a pizza place, mine was way to greasy......blah. I don't like greasy foods. They arent good for you either. I watched mall cop! It is a funny show.

I woke up really tired, but i actually did stuff today. Yay for that!
Oh yeah, and the other day RB and I got our caps and gowns to walk! yay!
