New Grand Baby & Big Sister

I have a new Grand Baby! Micheal Rudolfe Yeifag was born Feb 13, 2008 8lbs 3oz. This is his big sister that is spoiled rotten and wants really nothing to do with him, especially if mom is holding him. Effie the big sister was my first Grand Kid at work. She was ready leave with me when I had to go today. She never leaves her moms side. It was so funny because the parents were so afraid she would hurt him so I put him with her and said if you protect him all the time from her she will not get to know who he is.

The parents are from the Islands and have just them selves here so I play mom to them. Keep watching I have more grand babies coming soon!

Work & Son Dating

Well it has been another week down and a new one started.

It's funny to find out your sons secrets by reading his blog site to find out he has a girlfriend but not just any girl a girl from a very good Mormon family. Her brothers use to work for my company and I can say they are true role models for all.

Work is going good, keeping busy with everything. I have a client that is blind and she is so funny. She always tells me she is blind because she is, but when I say your not blind you can see through your fingers because you have special powers we don't she smiles big and says I do don't I. She is a very special client because I know her through Richard. Her step Mom is Richards sister. That only sad thing is she will die soon and she is only 18. She has a disease that kills them at a young age and she has really outlived her years she was suppose to live. I feel so blessed to make sure we full fill her last days with all the happiness we can give her. Recently we died her hair purple because she wanted to. Next she will get her ear pierced and I told her I would get mine done because I do not have pierced ears. She is so exited to have it done now. I will keep you updated on her as time passes.

I am also looking into getting my license to take in crisis clients at my home. If I had it today they would place 2 of them here that were clients of mine that keep asking to come back to my program. They came to my program because they had no place for them and were on their way to another lock down faculty when after 6 months with me they became a real success and have not been in crises sense. They went on to assisted living homes and both are doing well. It is just they have kept in touch with me and would love to come back where they know their loved and secure. It will be 6months down the line. But I will keep you informed.

I'm going underground! Steelers WON!

I surviuved the game, it is not good when you have to almost sneak out the door because your team wins. It was a awsome game and get this everyone ate the peanut butter dessert. Oh my I may have to go underground for a while. No it is so interesting when you are the only one making noise and then that last touch down I was told by 4 people to leave. Oh but hey I was the DD driver for 2 of them so I got to stay. Thanks Tricia for being a support even tho it was by phone.

Super Bowl Sunday and I live on the west Coast

So it's game day and if you live even close to the where the Seattle Sea Hawks live you should always go for the West Coast team, so that's what they say here. Not me I always have to be different. I think you should go for the team you believe in not because you live on the west coast. So I am off to a Super Bowl Party where everyone is for the Cardinals and I am sticking to my guns with the Steelers, not because of Ryan & Judy are the BIGGEST fans because there a good team and played a good game. Oh I guess I can say because of you Ryan and Judy and they have to have a fan here. We have to have some hope from the west to the east even if I am the only one here rooting for them. I will be bring in my horns and noise makers for when the Steelers get a touch down because I am the only one going to be making noise so I better be as loud as the others. So here is one for you Ryan & Judy, at least when you move here to the west you will have me as a fan and you won't feel so alone.

Donations Needed

My Friend Joe recently had to have 7 teeth pulled and now has no front teeth on top. He is in need of a Denture being made and it will cost $200.00. He can't afford it because he is very low income and is layed off from work right now. NO ONE should have to walk around with only half of there teeth On top. He literly has one eye tooth and the rest are gone on the top. It is sad! I am willing to pay the first $100.00 but I need some help raising the rest of the money.

Giving Blood

Today I gave blood like I do every 3 Months. Did you know by giving blood you save upto 3 lives? Your blood is also used with in 42 days. It always makes me feel so good when I get to give blood it is also fun and exciting to get to meet others. If you ever see a place having a blood drive you don't need an appointment you can walk in a they will never turn you down. You are not paid for this it is you giving back.

Saturday

Another week down. Pretty uneventful. Snowed again last night. I think it is time for the snow to go away and spring come.

Oh I did have a very scary experience this week! I went out after work with Shane and in the bars in Oregon you can not smoke so I left my drink and went out doors and came back and picked up my drink and started drinking again. I instantly became very ill and had a hard time focusing and walking. I said to Shane I need to go home for I do not know what is wrong with me all of a sudden and all I felt like doing is pucking. When I got home into bed I tried everything in my power to throw up but my esophagus and stomach was paralyzed and had no way of swallowing. I laid there for 4-5 hours trying to throw up and then I was able to do it. The next day after talking to people about what had happen I had come to realize someone had drugged my drink with what they called a date rape drug which does paralyze you. It has taken a couple of days of not being sick to my stomach but now I know better not to ever leave anything unattended. I know maybe I should be in bars or smoke but that is me and I don't judge.

All you that think that kids are expensive let me tell you! Jeff needed insurance for his car so I thought I would put him on mine with the deal I will pay for half of it. 324.00 a month for him. I about fell off my chair. All I could say to him is I hope Mc Donalds looks like a place you can work at for you will need to get a job. What in the world am I paying for. I just know i will not be taking any vacation anytime soon. That is expensive! I am going to go shopping around for better insurance but for now I have to make sure he is covered in my car.

I hope all is well with your families!
