here is pics of the bunk bed i am making for the girls.

Christmas decorating

Fist off i would like to say sorry for the quality of the pictures I had to use my phone to take them as torey has broken our camera. That being said we spent a couple of days after thanksgiving hanging the chrismas lights and putting up the tree. I think this is the first year we have done so much decorating. With all the lights we have put up we still have a ton of lights we could use. man it was cold and wet putting up the outside lights. because the weather turned cold we all are down with colds. well enjoy the pics.

Sugery update

I have just gone to the Cardiologist for a check up after my surgery. I was at the office for about 30 min. the hooked me up to the EKG and then the doctor came in and asked a few questions and said the the EKG looks really good. The false reading was no longer there and everything looks great, he said the the bad thing for him is that i have worked myself out of a cardiologist but is a good thing for me. So now i can start working on why I am so tired all the time. My personal Physician is now going to do a sleep study on me. I do not know when this will happen but I hope to be able to now get the rest I need. this is all I have at the moment hope everything is well with everybody.

Move

Well we have moved just 3 blocks from where we lived before. We are not completely moved yet but that will come with time. Our phone number has changed and I thought that I would let everyone know our new number it is 937-771-3087.

My Surgery

MY surgery went really well. They were able to find the problem and eliminate it. the surgery took about 3 hrs and then i recovered and was released @4:00p.m. we were 2 Blocks away and stopped to get something for dinner and i got out of the car and felt blood running down my leg. so back in the car and to the hospital. They just put some pressure on it and more gauze but would not let me go until 6:00pm. I am home now and doing fine but am restricted on my activities. Thanks everyone for their prayers and thoughts.

Level 1 Hurricane

Last week we had a level1 hurricane, the after effects of Hurricane Ike. It caused all sorts of damage with trees being up rooted and power outages throughout the area. we were lucky not to have any thing too serious imediately around us. We are all doing just fine. I have included some pictures of some damage.

This is something that I used to make out of steel. I have not been able to do this much lately and I miss it I love makeing things out of metal and hope to someday have the equipment to be able to do this again. i have in the past made simular things with metal and will post the pictures at a later date.
