WOW! Now that is has been a month or so...I knew that I'd be pretty inconsistant in posting, but I was hoping that it wasn't going to be this bad! Well i need to keep it short, just taking a break from final preparation, let the info sink in...
well, obviously a lot has happened in a month. Jon and I celebrated our 6mo awhile ago and broke out the cake top. I couldn't imagine how delicious it would have been if we waited 6 more months.
Things have been going better with Harley and Haleigh. Last visit I saw a 1/2 a sliver of improvement in Harley's listening skills and it was just the thing I needed to get the right focus. Poor Haleigh has been sick with something different for the thas 3 weekends they've been here. First the stomach flu, then croup, and Kristi called a couple days ago and said that they might not be able to come down this weekend because Haleigh had just gotten mono and was still gonna be contagious for 48 hrs. But I guess Harley didn't get it and it's not supposed to be contagious anymore so Jon's going to pick them up tonight.
Well, I may have saved myself in the Social Psych class that I told you I was probably going to fail. I didn't realize that there was a 100 pt, 5-7 page paper over a movie they watched in class when I had stomach flu. I found this out Monday and my class was 9am tues. The movie, "Key Largo" was not anywhere in Hays except for the library and what would you guess...it was already checked out. I got out of class at 1:30 and had to work from 4-11. Jon had to go to Great Bend, so I called the stores there and blockbuster said they had it. come to find out, its in their computer, but not in the store. But thank goodness, Dillons had it!! regardless to say there was no sleep for me, just a pot or two of coffee and an hour power nap between school and work.
but I got it done and if i get A's on this and final I pass.
harley and haleigh helped us decorate the Christmas tree last time. They have been dying to open presents. We actually got started on shopping fairly early, thank goodness. We actually found several things then we went to the blackfriday sales. The cats sure have liked all the crinkly paper and plastic sacks around. they weren't every helpful in the wrapping process, so their signatures on some. Lycan got caught pretty good this morning. Jon heard paper scratching and when she looked up at him, she had a chunk of paper stuck on the side of her mouth. Busted!
We are going to colorado next weekend to do my clinical + celebrate our 6 mo. When we get back I have entrance exam for radiology program in hutch on monday morning. Then I have a clinical set up in Garden City on the 20th.I plan to go to salina for one sometime, but I need to talk to Jon's aunt Jo, she works radiology there. Karen and I are getting together the 22nd. I've been trying to figure out how to list the sites I'm willing to do my clinicals at. I'm hoping that God will show me things when I visit the CO site. if sent to CO, that would put us 7-71/2 hours away from JOn's kids. I will be working at hospital 40 hr/wk with no pay, so I probably won't be making a whole lot. we won't have the $ for many trips to see them. I hate to have Jon get reinvolved in their lives and then 1 1/2 into it he's gone. That surely isnt good for them. anyways.. we'll probably post some colorado pictures next time. And pray for God's guidance.

Hey!

Congrats on your trip to CO. It is definately good to celebrate and take trips together. Enjoy your time!

We loved Colorado and vote for you to move "closer" to us! It may be hard for the kidos but it may be good for you guys. We'll be praying for God's guidance, direction, and discernment. Let us know if we can be doing anything for you guys.
