This has been a great weekend! Last week I started school, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to like it. The instructor seems good, and seriously, for 8 weeks, you can put up with anything. So, here I am in my white scrubs, and yes, I do realize I look like the sta-puft marshmallow man. Thanks for pointing that out! Anyway, Friday night we went to my nephew's football game and we won!! woohoo!! We painted the kids faces in the school colors, green and gold and spray painted their hair green. Was I smart enough to get my camera out? ummm no! Saturday, I went to visit Larry and Amber and her folks up at a lake near Stockton where her parents live. It was sooooooooooo nice to see her again, and Hunter and I had a great time. Her dad let him drive the boat, so for about 10 minutes we just drove in circles. I'm pretty sure Larry was dizzy and close to throwing up!
Visiting with Amber made me realize something. Just how unhappy with my life I was in Albuquerque. I remembered the last time I talked to her, and how bummed I was all the time. How I had any friends left, I have no idea. I was a miserable git, and thank goodness it didn't rub off on other people. It's funny, but I was telling her Mom how hard things are here that I have no job, and feel like my importance was somewhat diminished, but it's ok. For the first time in a very long time, I feel like things are OOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKKKK. I'm happy. Hunter is thriving like you wouldn't believe! He's talking more. He's swimming, jumping on the trampoline, getting along and fighting with his cousin just like siblings do, learning to share, learning to be defiant (ugh!) and really just blossoming! And I feel like I am ok to just do what I want as far as go to school, and work on myself, because it's not just me that everyone depends on anymore. It's kind of a nice feeling, and I'm happy. I'd be happier if I had David here with me, but hopefully that's not far off either.
You know what would make me super happy? If a certain friend of mine would return my calls. I miss her terribly, and I'm really really worried about her. You know who you are, and please don't ignore me. I know something is going on, and I want to be there for you like you always are for me. I love you and miss you so much. Give me a call and let's talk.
Here are some pics from this previous week. Hope you like them. Go Broncos!!! 3-0 Baby!!!

Kelly you still have friends from ABQ who miss you and love you and trust me we attributed your wonderful demeanor to the fact that you were carrying everything for everyone. I knew there would be a day that you would find what makes you happy and see the way you were and how it wasn't good for you. Basically, you found you :) and you are seeing what we all see. A beautiful woman, even in white marshmellow puff scrubs. And reference your speech to your friend, Please take care of her if you have to choose anyone. Shes stubborn and won't say anything to anyone and i'm sure she's not doing well. Love ya
Hey You, I am so excited for you. You have always loved learning and training and I am sure you will love school and excel. You do not look like a marshmallow man--stop it! Hunter is getting so grown up looking. He looks like a little boy now. Everything I prayed for is happening to you--no more weight of the world on your shoulders alone, fun, relaxation, and dreams coming true.
O yea' did you notice the Dolphins won a game ;)
P.S.--stop worrying
Sure do miss you,
Love you,

Kel, it was sooooo awesome gettin to see you and Hunter!! You have so many cool things goin for you right now, and it's awesome to see you smiling, and being so happy! Just proof that, no matter how hard the decision to move out there was, or how difficult it may be while you're goin to school...it was the right decision!!! I still miss you terribly, and the selfish side of me wants you back, but you are truly an inspiration for taking a chance! Love you!
