Wednesday, August 6, 2014. Has Another Year Gone By? Oh my, I guess time does fly when you’re having fun. Here it is August 2014 and the last entry in my blog was August 2013. I will do better (but then, you’ve heard that before, haven’t you). Okay, so, what’s been happening this past year? Well, first of all, I officially retired last summer (July 31, 2013) on my 66. Now I’m almost a week past my 67. Birthday and I’ve been retired for a year. So, what have I done with all my extra time for that year?

Slow Down - Sharp Turns Ahead! Visiting Old and New people and places 50 years later. Dec 16, 2013. The second apt with Dr D both he and his PA came in and remarked that Ken looked so much better and neither one of us had the desperate look anymore. At this visit Dr D told Ken to take one Diladad 4 times a day. Oh and come back in January and we'll try P STEM. Of course I stripped it of MUCH STUFF! Taking the med spread out is working wonders - he is rather number which we'll take for stiff and lots of p...

We got to Rawlins; put on our long handles and heavy coats and settled in. It is warming up as I didn't turn the heater on this morning. At just under 7000' it is cooler here. MUCH cooler than Gillette. Notice the wind sock.:). Whitney is involved in PTO, Bountiful Baskets and kids play groups. We are planning several projects for the summer. Aedan and I picked Ethan ...

Slow Down - Sharp Turns Ahead! Visiting Old and New people and places 50 years later. Sep 30, 2012. The Real 2012 Family Pics. It is what it is what it was.4 semi adults, three boys and a dog to get setup all at the SAME time. Nope! We didn't make it. But what is left is full of memories! So we tried again thinking we could just huddle and it would work. mmmm-not so much. She then decided we should do a crazy one and. Get it out of our system. Probably the most successful one of the whole evening. We lik...

FMCA (Family Motor Coach Association) had their 50th birthday party in Gillette. Well over 85% of them were high end coaches.

Slow Down - Sharp Turns Ahead! Visiting Old and New people and places 50 years later. Feb 24, 2013. It's been an interesting 2 weeks. Ken's new medicine dose bit him in the butt! Monday he increased his dose and by Wednesday he was getting weaker. By Thursday he was too weak to get out of bed finally hanging on enough by 3 pm to get to his chair, where he promptly went back to sleep. His pain level? Doc appointment Tuesday so we shall see. Here are a few of my favorite things for this year. Feb 10, 2013.

Slow Down - Sharp Turns Ahead! Visiting Old and New people and places 50 years later. Dec 30, 2012. Gearing up for 2013. Hard to believe 2013 is upon us. I must admit I am struggling as is Ken. It seems we take 2 steps forward and 20 back. The TPI's ( TPI's. Just rambling but have found putting it in black/white helps ME - the caregiver. Not that I do much caregiving but whatever. So the question is: Is Botox for Ken? I still have that question even after reading medpain.com A side effect of this jou...

This picture is our green pkup, Mom and Dad's Green/White trailer, Dad Brown pkup and the first cat. Okay so this must have been in 1974ish Ken's as head is shaved and he did that in the winter of 1972. :). Dad would come out whenever he could and helped do whatever needed done. We obviously were taking a break from piling here. We bought...

Slow Down - Sharp Turns Ahead! Visiting Old and New people and places 50 years later. Jan 21, 2013. Ken went to the doc and we all agreed (her and I) that maybe trying another type of Happy Pill might be a good idea. This was NOT welcomed by Ken but he went along. We left there with an elaborate way to wean off the old one and an aggressive way to jump start the new one! His neck muscles were about the size of the choker cables he used to use and mobility was pretty much 0. Well! For crying out loud!
