Just a little update for The Parker Compound... Not much new is happening here. Chet is back to work pulling "light" duty...(as if). Megan is still working for Subway but has applied for another job that looks promising. I am not exactly sure what it is so I can't even tell you about it.

Ford is still working at Arctic Circle and school. If I make it through the rest of this year and next without having a nervous breakdown I am going to have such a party! Even if I do have a breakdown, I think I will have a party anyway, just for the heck of it!

I am wrapping up the last of my manager training. I will be done with it as of the 28th. I have applied for a managers position but haven't had an interview yet. I don't know where it would be as they never tell you before where you might be going. (in case they change their mind at the last minute, I think) I will keep you all posted one way or the other.

Well, that really is all I have! Love you all Jana

Wonderful Weather

We have had some interesting times so far this winter.. flooding that took out bridges and some roads in Wahington Co. .. Athough no one lost their homes here in Washinton Co. the folks in Beaver Dam Az. lost eight homes.. This years flooding had 2 x's the amount of water we received in the flood of the 2005 flood that hit washinton co.. Our area was much better prepared this time around,by having the river channels open and people in place to bring their equipment to differant points in the county to help keep the brides open from all the garabge that was washed away.. there was 30-40 foot trees taken down and broken up like tooth picks.. a bridge was wash into the river and had to be lifted out of the water by track hoes so it would'nt block the river and cause more damage..
That said I want to report the weather here is the kind we would like to bottle and use at a later time it has been beautiful! in the high 50's to 60-64.. Come on down and visit us..
Mom and I are doing very well.. Mom is very busy trying to train her replacement at work plus trying to do part of her new job.. She spent most of friday up in Cedar city helping do a health fair.. she reports great succese..
I want to express my best wishes to Dave and Jan, and hope they had wonderful birthdays.. I would also like to thank Mindy for making me a birthday list with everyone birthdays on it...
This past week end Henry and Judy Post come down to St george, and while they were here we showed them several places that was new since their last trip here.. They left for home this morning because Henry, has a Dr.s appointmment at the UU med center on monday, they said to tell everyone hello!
I love each of you all very much and hope to seeyou very soon.. My you all receive his greatest blessings I pray.. Love Dad

Happy New Year

I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday season... Mom, and I had a very quite New Year, she was down stairs putting her holiday puzzle togather and I was watching TV until about 11:56 then we watched the ball in time square fall to help bring in the year 2011... Our weather has been most intresting this year they say we have received over 300% of the water we normally get in the water year.. that is alot of wet...
I went monday, for my monthly blood draw I still haven't received the ressults yet so hear's hoping that I will be normal in both numbers range; that has not happened in almost 4 years.. Mom is doing very well and is anxious to get started in her new assigment at her work place that would be as a nurse markter...They did have interviews for her position today so that person should be ready for mom to start traing some time next week ??..
I was wondering what we had decided about starting the family letter? It was suggested that we send a notebook around so that everything can be togather and after it is filled up that it be sent to mom and for keeping.. There are so many special thing that are shared that it would be a shame to lose it again.. Anyway please let me know what you all think about this suggestion... I will buy the notebook and start the first letter if this is what everyone wants to do..Please think about it and let me know... Love Dad
