I finally fell off the bike today!

My friend Carolyn and I had just gotten done with a 10 mile ride and we were rolling back to my house. I decided to come up the neighbors driveway onto our lawn and when I stopped, I lost my balance and somehow ended up on my back on the sidewalk with the bike tangled in my legs.

It is my first fall and I have the bruises and sore back to prove it. My left leg is swollen and bruised on the knee and inside calf. I...

The yard will soon become the site for our ceremony. We have tables, chairs and a even a dance floor ordered! The tiki torches and twinkle lights are in place already. I still need to trim some of the plants but it is looking really good out there. Beer, wine and champagne are ready to be chilled.

We did a dry run with the twinkle lights tonight. The backyard looks great all lit up. We have 6 tiki torches out there and an arch that has lights on it too. I can't wait for that night. We're still trying to decide on 6 tables for 8-10 or 5 tables for 10-12.

We got alot accomplished this weekend. Outfits have been purchased. Two people have volunteered to help Caron with the flowers, Sarah has agreed to be the hostess that night, we have some music picked out, and...

Sarah graduated 2 weeks ago from Cosmetology School and today she took her state boards.


SHE PASSED!!!!


They went to Glendale last night and spent the night because she had her practical this morning at 7 am and the written at noon.

We are in the middle of simultaneously writing 2 HUD grants right now. The first is due July 10, the other July 17.

And, I am in the middle of planning a wedding.

If I make it to the alter, I may collapse.


Other news, we may have gotten a free condo for a week in Depoe Bay, Oregon!
