End of 2009

~2009~

Ok...I know I need to do this more often, it is so relaxing to share & vent. It doesn't even matter if people are reading or not, I just enjoy journaling things that have meant something to me. But for those who continue to peek in from time to time for updates, thanks!

The end of 2009 brought some good & bad my way. A big scare I encountered was the switch of medical insurance through my employer. At this point I was awaiting a final authorization & surgery date....and BAM! I thought I would really have to redo the last 6months of requirements to have the insurance cover my surgery (if they covered at all). But with some reassurance from loved ones & several calls to the new insurance, I was relieved to find out I would be covered under the "continuity of care" guideline. Fabuloso! Happy Christmas to me!

We spent Christmas Eve with Mike's family....playing games with the kids & eating yummy treats was very enjoyable. Miss Ashley got her letter of acceptance for the Fall 2010 enrollment to Fresno Sate University--Way to go BULLDOG!!





Just after Christmas I got to (re)meet someone, who I hope to continue & nuture a relationship with. Hey Lindz! Lindsy is my sister Amy's oldest child. She's 14, is very smart & mature (um ya...she's related to me!), can play the cello & bass guitar (amazing talent), and loves to read when she has time. Is there any doubt we are related? She's tall, has those pinchable cheeks, & beautiful eyes. Oh & did I mention she has cats too, just like Aunt Kim!



We spent New Year's Eve with the Morley's....who as we learned on my birthday are expecting their 1st baby! Congratualtions! Ricky asked me...."so how would you like to be an Aunt & Uncle to more than just cats & dogs?"......Wow!
