09/15/24 Gravestone is ready

It's been a fun, busy week.

Monday we did our usual Monday Night Pizza - with Eldon&Diane, Grandpa and us over at Pizza Limone. Always yummy.

Tuesday Dad and I went to a sleep doctor appointment. I have been diagnosed with mild apnea while, as we know, he has severe. He's trying to get another CPap machine since his is probably 15 years old or so. He's just starting the process. I'm at the end. (This was probably my last appointment with them.)

They said because I am mild I have a couple of choices. 1. Sleep on my side. Always. (get a pillow or something that doesn't allow me to sleep on my back - which is where I have problems.) 2. A mouth guard - somehow opens your mouth and doesn't allow you to snore. 3. Lose 10% of my body weight. And finally - do nothing - but may continue to have some ill effects of sleep apnea.

So...we'll see! Dad has a sleep test next Friday night where he has to NOT use his CPAP all night. Oy. I might have to sleep in another room! haha

Tuesday night was my work employee appreciation night - I was in charge of putting it together. We had about 175 employees with family members total come. We had two theaters ready for them with soda and popcorn. It seemed like it was a very successful evening. We watched Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.

Tuesday and Wednesday I covered the court office while they were at BCI training. Needless to say, super busy couple of days as I did Melissa & Ahyria's job and mine too.

Wednesday night Ben and Laura invited us to their stake BBQ at Sand Hollow. We had Hamburgers and Hot Dogs and pot luck - lots of food...lots of people! Nick and his boys were there. After dinner Jack Jack and I played in the pool - we went down the slide and splashed around for about 1/2 an hour. It was fun!

Friday morning the pool cover guys came and replaced my cover and man does it look SO much better!

Friday night we went and visited our newly finished headstone at the home show. Kinda funny!

Saturday we played pickleball and then spent HOURS taking apart the pool cover housing to clean it out. Apparently it was full of so much mud and yuck. Like so nasty. It took a long time to just get the cover off since the screws were stripped. Sigh. But at the end of the day...like 5 p.m. it was finally all cleaned out and put back together. We swam and went to Culver's (had a gift card from my birthday that we finally used!) and then did my Saturday chores while dad watched BYU.

All in all a pretty great productive week!

09/10/23 Hey, do you get to read letters on non-p day, p day?

First time trying a lime Pineapple was more pleasing than lime Well...we went to Provo on Saturday and Sunday -- so your letter is a little later on Sunday than usual...but then I got to thinking...will you even get to see this before Thursday anyway?! So hopefully you're not sad that I'm late and all is well in CHILE. It's a rainy sabbath here...which is weird cause we rarely get rain. But it is drizzly and rainy and our ride home was beautiful for 2 hours, raining for 1 1/2 hours, and then pretty good the rest of the way. Let's see...what happened this week...Monday was Labor Day...so we had a day off work. Yeah!!! We didn't have anywhere we needed to go and planned to have a quiet Monday but first, we went to this store called Sheridan's that is super close to our house. And we found some wonderful outdoor patio furniture. It took us 3 trips to get it all home and all afternoon to unpack and assemble it. So at 5:30, we were just finishing and kinda tired

10/15/23 Last Letter!

Hey! Can you believe it?! It's your last letter from home!!! This time next week you'll be one tired Hermana sitting in my kitchen with me!!! What a week! Monday was Columbus Day - so everybody had to work ('cept me!!!!) haha I stayed home and worked on projects. I took your car to the tire shop and had the tires inflated and then to Walmart and got an oil change then to the car wash and got the shebang inside and out and then brought it home and scrubbed it for a couple more hours. Wow, it was dirty and still isn't great! haha. I also cleaned the pool and worked on the yard a bit and I don't even remember what else. I just remember I was super tired by day's end! On Tuesday Emmalee came over and did Holly's hair and makeup. She looked really pretty. Afterward, we went to the Covington Home to take pictures. And the funny thing...it was decked out in Halloween decorations. NOOOOO!!!! So we found some areas and took some pictures and I think we got a c

09/17/23 Good Morning!

I l ooked up Iqueque and it looks beautiful!!! Did they save the best for last? I'm excited to see your place and hear about it. It looks like a very fun vacation city -- so maybe people won't be as interested in learning the gospel??? I dunno! But I was impressed! It was a busy week but productive! After church last week they had a linger-longer -- we've never done that in any ward I've been in that I recall...maybe when I was a kid (we would stay all day between conferences). I have heard of it...AJ had it in the Virgin Islands. It was fun. Brother Blaser made tons of cookies and everyone just stayed after and visited for a little while. Dad met a couple that has a pickleball court in their side yard. But that yard was too small, so they have to cut off 4 feet...which seems like a lot! haha. We haven't gone up to play with then yet so I dunno! They live on Myrna's hill. Monday we went to the temple pre-open house. It was really beautiful and a nice exp
