Little of This and That Moments

I have some catching up to do oh yeah I do. Let’s see, we attended a baby shower party, celebrated Billy’s Birthday, went to Red Hawk Casino to celebrate Michele’s Birthday, and attended the Mother Teresa Stamp Unveiling Ceremony. Somewhere in there I went to PE and my swimming classes.

I figured out prior to taking the swim class that I can’t turn my dang head to breath while swimming. Now that kind of put a damper on the deal – turn head get electrical shock down to my toes and water up my nose . I so did not wish to be doomed to staying in the shallow end and spending the whole class doing aerobic water exercises.  I thought about it and asked if I could use a snorkel and the instructor said she did not see a problem with it. So I look so dorky with the goggles, snorkel, and nose plug – augh! Seriously -DORK! I stared out without the nose plug thingy but started using one after I forgot not to breath with my nose while snorkeling away – gag – cough – choke . … After three classes I managed in poor form to make 6 laps!

Being in the pool is super. I can work on my balance and if I fall I just go splash. The weightless feeling makes me almost feel normal.

So here are a couple of videos covering some of the  mentioned moments in my life this past few weeks:

Just an Update

Tasha is fine – yeah. Everyone got back into their units – except #3 where he was holding out. Boyd says they kicked in their door so that needs replacing.

KRP has been on vacation this past week so I have been going lots of places and then when getting home falling asleep LOL

We are off again to hear Reyna sing

Tasha Dog is Stuck in Building where suspect is barricaded

Catfish and Annies are glued to the television, KRP and I are getting updates on the cell. Buddy (Catfish’s best pal) shared his home with Tasha dog until Boyd and Christina became her forever family.

Right now the suspect in the drug store robbery where an employee was killed is barricaded in and poor  Tasha is stuck in the apartment building. One officer(?) did get her into the laundry room, opened a window and she supposedly has water.

You might remember Boyd and Christina as I have written about them before. They are the  previous Tent City dwellers that recently were married. I was honored to photo graph their wedding.

We just heard that a flash bang was set off and are super worried about Tashas’s well being. Mike is down there with Boyd and Kristin and giving updates.

UPDATE: the dude gave up and the expect 45 mins till they can get to Tasha

Hope for the best
