It’s been on vacation for about three months now. I guess I should probably find out how it’s doing. I’m sure it’s coming along fine. This has been a particularly brutal winter for more southern Colorado so I’m not surprised it is taking a little white longer.

Recently I volunteered to be on the Board of Directors for my neighborhoods civic association. I think I might also be the VP now, I’m not certain about that. I am also helping to direct the revamping of the website it still has a long way to go. You can check it out at http://www.highlands460.org

My health has held up okay, knock on wood, minor setback recently but things are still going well. I have been skiing 3 times already this season. We are heading up again this weekend. It feels really good to be back doing something I love so much.

The animals are well as well. Kona is about two now and is finally mellowing out a little. He is like a little dog trapped in a big dogs body, it’s almost funny. Elvis is getting older, he is about 13 now. He has slowed down a lot, but he’s holding up. Losing JJ last year impacted him and stressed him out. They weren’t really buddies, but change always jacks a cat up.

My parents recently sold the house I spent my teen and early adult years in. It went pretty fast and I was sad to see them sell it because I loved that house and the lot it was on. Still, the new place is nice, it is on a golf course and my Dad always wanted that.

Everything else is pretty much the same, getting pumped up about our trip in a couple weeks and even more excited about the BIG Vegas trip in June. If you want more details on that trip (everyone is invited) drop me a line and I will fill you in on the details.

Ok then, that’s it for now.

*woof*

So what’s next in these two situations….

Situation 1:
A few months ago we lost our cat JJ to cancer, it is still too fresh in our minds. Yesterday one of Renee’s other cats she had living with her mom passed away. She was 21 and had been ill for a couple years so she lived a good life, but it still it pretty hard.

So what’s next?

Situation 2:
The drivers side front spring on the Audi broke, regardless it is going to be expensive to get taken car of, it is just a matter of how much. If H&R honors their warranty and covers it woo hoo, that cuts down the cost significantly, but labor will be a lot.

It is time to replace the timing belt on the Audi, so the money it would cost to do that is now spread too thin because of the broken spring.

So what’s next?
