Update

No pictures to post with this post-just wanted to do an update. We haven't been doing much with the nasty weather all the time. I'm glad to have the rain and my green grass is glad to have the rain, but it sure puts a damper into making any plans!

Well, the potty training was unsuccessful! Madison is still going for the most part at daycare, but when I get her home and take her to the potty, she screams bloody hell! So, I delayed it! I don't want to traumatize the poor girl. It's very frustrating! Potty training is worse than giving birth-mind you I had an epidural! Nothing like having three potty chairs going to waste! Oh well, the time will come when she's ready.

Even though I said I wouldn't plant any more flowers last year, I used some of our tax return and went out and bought flowers a month or so ago. I'm sorry to say, one plant is dead and another on it's way out! I have to remember to get out there and water the blasted things!!!!! We'll see how long the others hang on for? It's mostly the hanging baskets I bought. I'm surprised that the flowers I planted in our new little flower bed under the palm tree are actually surviving in the dirt! I'll have to get outside one of these days with the camera and take a few pictures before all the plants die!

Madison got out and rode Casino again a couple weekends ago. No pictures this time-same horse, same kid! I have a hope to finally be getting some horse back riding lessons, but the plans are not finalized yet! It's something I've been wanting to do, just didn't have the initiative to start the plans! I'll keep everyone posted on when and if I start! (I'm sure I'll be complaining of how sore I am!)

Fern is officially a-capping (I think that's right). He's starting to get all the briefings about getting his resume started and stuff along those lines to help him prepare himself to get out of the army and find a job. Still can't say that I'm excited, I'm scared. He still doesn't know what he's going to do when he gets out and he has no college education to fall back on-just experience with the army. I'm apprehensive, but he's very much looking forward to getting out. I'm sure if I asked him right now, he'd be able to tell me how many months, weeks, and days he has left!

Work is work for me! Scott and White has pretty much made the floor's go to 12 hour shifts! Mostly everyone has started already, but I will officially start mine next schedule. I'm not looking forward to working 12 hour shifts all the time, but in the long run it makes it easier for the hospital in staffing. I kind of like going home at 3pm when everyone else has to stay there! It puts a little devil grin on my face! :)

I hope everyone is enjoying the start of their month of May! Check back for more posts and pics....when the weather clears up!
