Winding up...

Well, the school year is finally winding up! This last few weeks have seemed to take forever! Perhaps it is because of the weather that it has been so hard. I am really looking forward to spending as much time as I can with Chet this summer. Both here at home and out on the road with him.
I will be heading to St George with a coworker and friend of mine from Brazil the second week of June for some training. It will be good but strange to be away from my family for the long. At least I will be staying with Mom & Dad so it won't be like I am completely isolated from them. :)
I have an interview for a managers job tomorrow afternoon, for an unknown elementary school. I really do have such mixed emotions about leaving the school that I am currently at. I have worked there now for 8 years! I am comfortable there and a bit nervous to be the one in charge. It would be nice, however; to have the added income of the managers! :) Which was the whole point of all the training I have done and the extra work I have been doing for a large part of the end of this year. Whatever happens will be good. I will just be glad to know one way or the other what it is I will have to look forward to.
Megan and Ford have been having some personal struggles but continue to work and live their lives. They are busy and I don't see much of them these days. can't really complain because I have been pretty busy myself. Of which Megan often reminds me..."You are never home!" We just seem to be on totally different schedules.
Tractor season started, and Chet has been out rounding up work to make sure that we can pay the debit that comes along with the business. We will be keeping pretty busy I think. I finally got my garden planted this last weekend, but I am uncertain if it will grow this year, as it has rained so much, and looking at the forecast it looks much the same, so it will be interesting to see what comes of it this year. I will give it my best effort.
I have continued with my exercise program and after pulling a muscle in my leg have finally worked back up to running three miles again. I have also added some water aerobics to the mix and have encouraged some of the ladies I work with to come and enjoy it with me. It has been fun to see them come out and to get to know them a little better. It is nice to feel healthy!
I love you all and hope that things are going well for all of you and your families!
Take care and until next time.... hugs from a far! Jana & Family!

BEEN A LONG TIME

It has been a long time since anyone posted a blog on our family site..I really miss reading someone else post, please take a moment and make an entry... I am doing well.. My blood is staying up.. I go see the Dr. on May 25th.. it has been a little over ninety days since my last apointment... Maybe this time we can reduce one more pill, I hope! Then it becomes a matter of waiting to see how my body responds with one less pill.. The more I can cut back the better it will be for my kidneys..
Today Mom, had to drive to Knab UT. and Page AZ. see had appointments to meet with prospective patients.. In Page she had a presentation for all the LDS Bishops in the area and felt their effort has been well worth it for them.. They have to be up and on the road wed. by 6:30 to meet with some one in Knab, then they drive over to Alta and Orderville for more meetings.. If she is lucky she should get home about 9pm.. This new job has added a lot of stress to our lives.. Mom feels it may be her fault that more people have not signed up for their service, so she is working harder and longer.. She will be successful, but it isn,t coming fast enough for her..
I miss seeing all of you. I do get to talk with most everyone on the telephone and that does help some.. I hope to get to see everyone this summer..
I just over ccoked a pot of egges I forgot about while i was doing this blog..
I love each of you very much, and pray the Lords blessing will be upon each and everyone one of you.. LOVE DAD
