Who's killing the dogs? thats aweful, i mean i could understand if a dog had rabies, then it would have to be put down. i think you guys can train grizz to actually help you. he's dark so he can't be seen at night especially if you put shoe polish or somthing like it on his white markings, make sure any tags on his colar has Silencers on them. i'm so glad to hear from ya, i was sending out texts to every one last night to find out if they heard from you. i was missing ya and the boys were with ann so i didnt have anyone to play with. teddy woke up dry again, second da in a row. he's got skills i tell you what. i love ya, keep each other safe mom xox

6/30/2010 4:47:21 PM

yeah i know what hajji meant and we call all of them hajj... its just easier that way but anyways there is some bad news... they have been going around the fob killing all dogs on sight so we kidnapped grizz and took him up the mountain needless to say he hates it... i hated watching them kill the dogs.. i witnessed first hand 4 of them ... idk what to say about that... friends are doing good... sorry i have like some gaps in communications with you ... you know how it is ... but yeah i love ya.. love on the lils for me =]

From mom 6.29.10 11:56pm

Heyyy,



I finally finished the turns for the month today. Tomorrow is the last day of the month so I will start on what I can for next month. I had to close the pool monday from over usage and the place had trash all over. It was great because it was pretty warm. Teddy is still on top of the whole potty thing, this morning he woke up dry. That is so awesome. Ann came over and got the boys for a few hours this evening. Apparently she doesn't understand the going potty thing and he came home in a diaper. I guess he poo-d. Oh well, I put them in the tub and teddy back in to "big boy" pull ups that he can take on and off himself. I looked up Hajji and according to wikipedia it is a title given to those who have made the pilgrimage to Mecca and it is usually given to elders because it takes a while to save up enough funds for the journey. But the title seems to be able to be handed down. Like if you went to Mecca you would be called Hajjijeremiah and if you had a son his name would be his first name with Hajjijeremiah after. Kind of like how a russian father hands down his name like Ivan has a son named Vasili Ivanich. Hope everything is going good and your stomach isn't giving you problems. Say hey to your buddies and give Grizz a scratch from me. I love you and miss ya bunches. Mom xoxoxox

Hi, we had a good day today, teddy is still doing great on potty training, the bigger test will be g&g and wes keeping up with the program. good thing he can pretty much do most of it on his own. i placed suzi today with a older, single guy who has a 1yr goldendoodle. bb got placed with this younger gal who kind of look like her Cute, thin with light colored curly hair. i'm just waiting for her deposit. i'm holding her until she moves into her new place at the beginning of Aug. so that was pretty exciting. after that i wacked at the weeds growing in the garden area, then after the boys woke up we went to g&g and watched 3 movies so thats about all, i Shared your photos with grandma and some others of dogs. she had to look at them with her magnafire. i dont remember my grandma loosing so much of her eye sight and she had diabettes too. anyways. i love you and hope you are all recovered. take care of yourself for me. mom xoxoxo

From Mom, Sun 6/27/10 12:59 AM

Hi, by the time you get here we will be in the middle of a heat wave. haha teddy wore underwear all day today. he is doing great. he thinks peeing in the toilet is awesome and would pull his unders off and sit and pee and flush, i swear we used more water today than all week. i was in front working in the yard and at one point I noticed that he had poo streak on his legs. hehe what a character i sprayed him off with a hose and sent him back in. so ya he is doing good. cubby is also sitting on the toilet, right now he is just around for the ride the main focus is on teddy. i'm hoping they will be both at of diapers by the end of summer. i have someone Coming out tomorrow to see sadie's last puppy suzi. someone else emailed me about bb but i dont have an appointment yet. i'm going to miss having puppies. shirley offered me hers. hehe i said sure, lets keep the neighbors guessing. i didnt send the controllers cause i had a bunch of stuff the send, as it is you paid for it to be Shipped. i have more to ship. so if ya want i'll send another box. i sure hope your pay is fixed. its way too low for where your at and what your doing. i only missed 1 day of hearing from you. the news said that we are losing a lot of soldiers this month. i can see that though, because of the increase of military in afghanistan I believe that the taliban or whatever is just waiting for us to leave to come back in and start up again. so having a deadline seems stupid. they can wave goodbye and continue just as before. doesnt make sense. sorry you got sick again but i'm glad you went and got it taken care of this time. remember to wash your hands. even If you have no soap, the action of rubbing your hands together under running water still works towards killing bateria. i love ya and miss you bunches. mom xoxoxo
PS hehe. i just wanted you to know that we shut your phone off to help you save money, this next bill is about $80 less than normal. when we get word that your on your way we will turn it back on. they dont charge for it because your in the service and they promised no hassel to turn it on and off while your on leave.

6/26/2010 1:42:23 PM

yeah i got the package fianlly i dont know why you sent laundry detergent cuz i dont do my own laudry we hire hajji to do it but yeah thatnks tho its great cept i thought you were going to be sending the 64 controllers but its ok... love the pic of cubby i should be putting some more pics up too.. i think my pay is getting fixed and i am getting all the back pay so that should be nice but i think my leave got pushed back so now i really dont know when i am going to be coming home but it is looking like its going to be towards the end of the month like you hoped but of course im not sure ya know... ummm other than that we just got out of another blackout more people dieing but im still up and strong cept i had that food virus again but this time got treated and yeah it didnt last as long which was nice but anywho i love and miss you and the lils and everyone hope the sun stays out for me when i get there

From Mom, 6/24/10 9:20 PM

The general incharge in afganistan got forced to resign because of some comments he made to the press about the VP. you gotta be careful about what you say, if it gets back to your boss you can get fired. i'm sure he gets a nice pension and will probably write his opinions in a book and get pay to speak his opinions in front of Others that want to pay to hear them. jeff the guy i talked to sometimes who just got back from afganistan said he thought he was doing a good job there but he was not a politian type guy. he said he met the replacement general and liked him also. i told him you were stationed at blessing and he said he could find out where That was on the map for me. nothing much going on sun is still shining this week and its been in the high 70s. pose to get cloudy next week again. i worked in the yard again after work with the boys helping and got some stuffed cleaned up.. well i got to get the littles out of the tub and into bed. i love you very much. mom xoxo

6/24/2010 8:50:15 AM

yeah that seems like it would make sense especially cuz we are on the ocean side of the mountain and once it gets to the colder elevations it starts to dump hahaha... yeah thats cool did you ever ask anyone at your work about a car or scotty... im just gonna fly straight to pdx cuz i dont think that mike is gonna be able to pull through but yeah... so i hope you put that box in your car... just in case.. yeah we have night vision and im sore as ever... too many missions lately i need sleep... and i will be able to take the boys to g&g's for ya maybe if all goes well it means more sleep for you at least..

From Mom, 6/23/10 1:17 PM

Heeyy, its been nice for the last couple of days, warmer and no rain. joseph and i were talking about how the warmer earth temperatures actually makes it rain more here. then last night i was walking this show about how the earth changed history and they were discribing how india and cambodia have monsoon seasons in the summer Summer because the land warms up and draws more moisture out of the ocean and creates down pours for three months out of the year there. we seem to have more rain this time of year than we used to do. higher temps are drawing moist air from the ocean and it blows in land and gets caught up by the cascade mountain range and dumps Rain here on this side of the mountain leaving little to fall on the other side. so thats what i'm thinking about today. the apartment i'm working in has no power. kind of hard to make sure everything is working. i just walked around in here for a little bit and decided i might as well sit down and send you a message. i'm tired I have to get up an hour earlier to take the boys to g&g, at least i didn't stay up late last night. when you guys are out at night, do you wear night vision goggles? i got a copy of step brothers, extended unrated version and there's a whole scene of them wearing the goggles. such a funny movie, shirley likes it too. i started Having bear help me feed the dogs at night. he helps carry the dishes of food and places them on the floor all the while dogs are circling him all excited to get their food. he is such a good boy and is talking up a storm he watches his fish eat at night and likes to look at trucks and horses when we drive down the road. Cubby is all over the place right now, a speed demon in baby shoes. ive been teaching him the sit command. lol. he can be stuborn and want to stand on my bed. also i been teaching him no, and to leave stuff on my table alone.. its an on going learning process with him. i made each of them a blanket and am starting one for wyatt Thats camo, everytime i see that boy he is in camo. so i figure levi and rachelle will like it. well i gotta go. take care and be safe. love you bunches, mom xoxoxoxo

6/23/2010 7:22:46 AM

yeah i know that it would have been something like that and its fine... just like i said first time i looked at it since i left the states and yeah kinda tripped me out hahaha that would be a good thing to do with mike and ann but make sure they cant withdrawl from it or something...
hmmm i might just have to rent your house from ya when i get out and go to college... me and andy and his woman were all planning on finding a place or something ya know... i am aiming for the ancouver area but your house has the memories and the neighborhood ya know but yeah.. who knows.. mike hasnt written me back about the car or anything so i dont know where thats going... things been alright been doing some all nighters ya know... training up my replacement for when i am gone and such... nothing else i can think of and i think at fp you mean ona.. shes my old friend but yeah i post all the pics i come by that im in and i send them to you as well...
love ya

From mom, 6/22/10 12:24 PM

I do understand, i've in kind of a money pinch getting the boys dropped back on us. i was going to let you know that i needed to pick up diapers and they needed shoes but i didn't get the time to sit and write you about it. i'm going to place ads to sell these last two puppies and put money back into your account. i will probaly Put extra in your account also, i dont have a savings account and you could use the extra if you need to when your here and i'll just take it out later a month or to done the line when i need it. i need to talk to mike about getting him to set it up and take the money his was getting taken out for child support and have it Deposited into my account for the littles care. later i am going to do the same with ann. by then i will have a seperate account that they can both deposit into. i wish i could sell my house and move on to land and quit my job and have enough dogs to support us. hehe. then i wouldn't have to mess with people as much. You wanna buy a house? lol. when i get land i'm going to build a couple of cabins that can be lived in. actually i may get a could large sheds like the one i have only larger put up and then turn them into living areas. it would be alot faster and easier. then mike would have a place to crash and you too could stay if you want While you attend college. anna (spell?) from fp told me she saw the monkey pages you posted, so, see everyone wants to see pictures of you or stuff you see that's interesting and cool. please send more when you get the chance. i hope you get your box soon, its been 8 days since i sent it. i gotta go for now. i love you, mom xoxo

6/22/10 12:03 PM

im sorry i didnt mean to somewhat flip out like that... stressful times... i know i never have to doubt ya....

6/21/10 5:40 AM

yeah well i dont know i mean that would be cool and all but i think of it this way i want to spend as much time as i can at home cuz its going to be my only chance until after i get this deployment done which will be 9 months after i come back from this so i dont know it depends on how much time it will take plus i wont have my phone or any change of clothes and im gonna hate staying in uniform and having the trucker fuckers hitting on me all the time.. eww.. herpes.... by the way i want you to put my entire box inside your car like in the back or trunk i dont care but that way it will be in there for when you pick me up and such ya know and you wont forget about it it will be out of the way that would be cool thanks and i saw that picture i love them lil boogers and i am so excited to hear that she is going to hand them over and as bad as it sounds im glad its a lil difficult for anne to do so even tho it is the right decision for now and maybe even permanently but yeah good job on the chicken coup... i cant wait to be home but i still dont have a date yet but i heard that i might be pushed back which really isnt a fer sure thing but i hope not cuz that would just piss me off if they fuck me on my leave too i mean i put up with enough shit as it is from them being the RTO and all... but i found out that i am very good at my job and i have had a couple times where i squared away a couple other RTOs so booyah hahahaha
i miss ya mommy

you know how important it is to me to be able to have vehicular freedom...
love ya

From Mom, 6/20/10 1:33 AM

Fav, i will keep everyone updated. everyone keeps asking. when? when? i'm not going to request time off until i hear from ya. i just hope it's later in the month so it wont cause issues at work. but i should be able to at anytime as long as i can get my turns done before or on time. gramma is going to have more laser surgery on Her eyes, july 19th and thats the same week tammy and michael at going to visit his family in idaho/wyomin. so thats all thats plan so far for the family in juy. mike says that he is talking to the vfw about getting you from dallas to pdx no charge or you could hitch a ride in the truck with him and mark his boss. it may add Some time to your travel time but it maybe fun to travel in a semi, with both mike and mark driving you'd get here fairly fast. they really haul ass. ann sent me a text saying that her and your sister are going next week and filing papers to give me custody of the boys and is going to write them a letter to be opened on their 16 Birthdays. so it sounds like she is giving them over to me and wants to have weekends with them and holidays. so ya, shirley's chicken coup is now insulated and has plywood on the ceiling and two walls. sam and dillon helped her do the ceiling friday. the photo i sent you was from applebees and teddy was copying shirley when she Was drinking her drink, funny stuff. cubby ate a lot of my food, noodles and chicken. well thats about everything. i love you and hope you are well and taking care of yourself. wes says to tell you hello. love mom. xoxoxoxoxoxo

6/20/10 12:51 AM

well thats cool that you get to keep them for a lil bit ya know i hope that i get to see them lots me and my friend paige.. (girls house that eli went to) are going to take them to the oregon zoo more then likely =]
but yeah i miss ya and i have been doing alright yeah those monkey pics are funny huh
i still dont know when i am going to be coming home so yeah i hope your not planning on taking a day off for me when i first get there.. just as long as they know that youll have to pic me up and ill give you as much notice as i can =]
i love ya and everyone.. make sure your keeping everyone updated

From mom, 6/18/10 10:03 PM

Heey, i meant to write you earlier today but i just had too much drama going on. i'm emotionally drained. ann moved back with her sister and teresa, sister, started in right a way about it being too crowded with her and the littles being there. teresa basicially told ann to give me the boys again. less then 24 hours after they Moved in. so today ann sends me a text saying that she has to move again by the end of the month and that she doesnt have any good options for the boys. i told her that i think we should get custody of them and that i wont keep them from being part of their lives and she says that if she can get a place and job for at least a Year. i told her that i want her to go to clark for at least 2 years and get an AA degree and that would mean that i have custody for at least 3 years minium. and she replied real fast okay, i also told her that if i have them that she cannot be on welfare or collecting child support for them when she doesnt have them to care For. and that it was wrong of her mom to claim them as dependents when i was taking care of them with little help from her or mike. so i have them for the weekend until monday after work. she has until the end of the month before she moves out. me and the littles are headed up to shirleys in the morning i got the monkey pics!Mom

6.17.10 monkey photos

6/17/10 8:27 AM

yeah thats good i have never really seen him shit before just piss on everything when we go out. but yeah anyways thats cool maybe i will bunk with them when i am there whenever the hell that is but yeah i got some more pictures for ya and such but anyways i miss ya and cant wait to be home.. sorry i just dont have much to talk about this time.. other than the fact that i am still really worried about what i am gonna drive when i get home and all but im trying not to be and its not really working...

From Mom, 6.16.10 10:30pm

Heeey, i got your photos okay, i think grizz is part lab, part pit. which isn't really to far fetched after all the breeds both exist in europe. i bet it's nice to have him around. make sure you put silencers on his tags on his collar. don't need him making noise at night when he's out. i sent you the de-wormer for the largest Size dog. i kind of figured that he was big based on his name. in the box of de-wormer is 3 pouches. you need to sprinkle it in his food 3 days in a row. you can take some of the jerky (which ever flavor you like the least) and add about a cup of warm water and a pouch. the meat smell should make it so he will eat it fast. If you happened to see him shit a couple days afterward and you see worms (like spagetti) let me know and i'll send you another box right away or if your going on leave i can send it to one of the other guys who's taking care of him so he can get a second dose. then he should get it like every two months regularly, especially if He is doing some of his own hunting and eating it. cause if a rodent has worms he'll get worms from it. working in a trashed apartment today, had to replace the water heater besides all the blinds, screens, and all faucets and bath sinks. i have some stupid training to go to friday morning. ugh. a waste of time. i already know Everything. haha. i want wes moved downstairs soon. the stairs are just too hard for him and i want his room for the boys. i'm already planning on the colors to paint it. chocolate brown on the floor and up the wall about 3'. then a nice sky blue on the rest of the wall and ceiling. i want to get one of those awesome carpets that you can drive little cars on. then the camp beds can be used in there also when you and mike are in town. this what i spend my time thinking about. making plans for stuff to do. i found someone selling clothes bear's size on craigslist and got him plenty of clothes to last the summer, nice stuff too. i'm still Looking for a new carseat for him that can stay in my car all the time. walmart has one for $30 but i haven't committed to it yet. ann moved again, now she is back with her sister in the trailer here in bg. lots closer at least. but at the same time, no surprise there. at least they are out of that dump that was a serious Accident waiting to happen. i kind of expected it when ann told me her friend was 2 months behind on the rent. yap yap yap. well anywho, i'm gonna go to sleep now if i can. i love ya tons. thanks again for sending me some photos, can't wait to see more. =) mom xoxoxoxo

Sent 6.16.10

Grizz sent 6.16.10

From mom, 6/14/10 1:39 PM

Hey, i sent you a box today. i'm feeling bad about how long its taking me to get stuff to you, i'm lame. i just sent you some toilettries and snack stuff. i sent it priorety mail so it should get to you a little faster than the last box. it all depends on how fast the AEO(?) can get it to you once they have it. hope you are Feeling in better spirits. it was sure wonderful to talk to you yesturday on the phone. i wish sometimes that i have more to talk about. but not much seems to be going on besides the normal stuff. g&g are doing good, i took the littles over to see them yesturday and we all watched the spirit horse movie and ate cake and ice Cream, we watch that horse movie everytime we go there. bear wanted to watch nemo after but we had to get them back to ann. i moved the board thing away from the shed to a new place. g&g got some new rose bushes and needed a place to plant them, so i suggested that location. since the grass is already dead under it and it would Be easier for them to dig around in and plant. we had a nice time. grandma had a copy of your baby photo that went missing when the boys moved out, so she is going to scan it for me. nice. i talked to mike today and i told him about how you called and it was only a 6 digit number and mike said he had a call while he was sleeping That was 6 also, so he said to tell you hi and that he loved ya and was sorry that he missed your call. he said that he was talking to his boss mark about maybe arranging it to get the truck his's buying early so you could drive it and to try not to worry and stress over it so much. we will work something out. i think that when Finish this tour and have your 30 days leave, you should purchase a car to drive back to campbell so you have something there ya know. well i better get back to work. i love you and miss you bunches and bunches. mom xoxo

6/13/10 2:02 AM

yeah its pretty lame haveing a blakcout alot but its whatever gotta respect it but i will not ever be going to the observation point again unless i lose my job which i dont forsee that happening unless i get put into a leadership position which i kinda dont want but wouldnt really care anyways i just do what i am told to do ya know.. but yeah i miss ya too and i cant wait to see the littles.. i miss them so.. i found out i am going to have to pay for my ticket from dalles to pdx. lame cuz im not getting combat pay or anything and they are still takin taxes and meal deductions out which sucks ass so im not gonna have any money prolly and i dont know about that cuz i really need a car to drive around. i cant not have one. i already have lots of plans and things to do. im sooo worried about it. its not good. but things are alright here.. just doin the dam thing. i still dont know when i am gonna be coming home. so i dont know.. but iove ya and i have two pctures for you but it takes forever to load onto here.

from mom, 6/13/10 1:10 AM

Hi fav, the littles and i had a great day at shirley's, it was so nice to have a nice sunny day to be outside. shirley and i ran the wire for the rough in electrical, put up junction boxes for outlets, lights and a heater and then insulated the walls. so we got a lot done. shirley did the siding on her own in the pouring rain. So we are making progress, shirley wants to have a bbq when your on your leave. just like old times. she also says that she has plenty of projects to complete. we need to put a new roof on her house before next fall because it's leaking pretty good around the wood stove and it is sagging between the trusses. so it needs the moss And clean it off, then resheet it with osb sheeting and repair the chimney stack and should replace the plumbing vent stack flashing and then apply the metal roofing. so you can see that some help with that would be nice. hope everything is going okay. i love you and think of you all the time. take good care of yourself. mom xo

from mom, 6/12/10 2:24 AM

Heey, so finally i get a chance to write more, it's 1:30am. work was busy, i'm trying to get ahead of the painter but he is keeping up with me pretty good. lol. i got the boys as you can see from the picture of teddy in the tub. i called g&g after i got them and gave them the idea of going to fp's for dinner. gramma kept giving Them jelly packets so they got all sticky. yucky. so they went right into the tub as soon as we got home. i love them so much For a minute there i thought i had internet with my computer. oh well. i gave fritz and the two puppies hair cuts tonight after the boys went to sleep. it's suppose to be close to 85 degrees tomorrow. so i wanted to cut down on the amount of hair they have. i just threw up, ugh. i dont know why just hit me and up came dinner. Man my throat is raw now. the apartments were ann is satying with her friend is a dump. there are pickets missing in the hand railing going up to her apartment. the boys could fall thru it so easily. teddy is too short to reach the hand rail so normally he would use the pickets. the neighbors door was open and i could tell even Before i saw in their unit that they had cats by the smell. i hope ann really plans to only stay there temporary, there is way to many unsupervised little kids running around, a preditor's dream. we are going to shirley's in the morning, we are going to start the electical and plumbing for the sink. so we are making progress. I just wanted to let you know that i just thought you were on a stint at a obersavation point. i wasnt too worried that something happened to you. i always worry no matter where you are. i dont want you to worry about stressing me while you are there. just consentrate on whats going on when your on duty, thats what you should be Thinking about. focus. i will tell you that i havent seen anything in the news about afghanistan, its mostly been about the oil spill in the gulf of mexico. i love you and miss you. mom

from mom, 6/11/10 8:57 AM

Hey, i was talking to shirley about grizz and she reminded me that i couldnt send a vaccination because it needs to be kept cold. i will send dewormer, can you guess his weight? how much dewormer he needs depends on his weight. i might call my vet or the place i get the vaccines from and ask for advise on the vaccine,maybe there An alturnitive. we got the roof complete on the chicken house, yippi. the roof is a test for us, we want to put the same on the house. it looks good but its not even at the bottom which means we didnt get the roof square under it. its raining today so shirley can check if it stays dry under it. it was a nice day to work outside For a change, most of the time its been raining on us. fritz slept on my bed las night. it was like old times, sadie likes to sleep on my chair. fritz started on my chair, but when i woke up this morning i put my hand out to stretch and it landed on his balls, lol, i was like fritz must be here. i missed him he was at shirley's For four weeks making chocolate and black puppies. another month till we find out if we get pups from both dads. well i better get up and get the boys ready for fp's. love you miss you take care and have fun. mom xoxoxoxoxo

Hi, fritz has been at shirley's for a month now, i miss him alot, i had emma at home for 3 weeks but i left her there last weekend cause it was late and i was tired and she was just too dirty to ride home. i'm not asking for you to do a whole national geographic documentation of afghanistan but some pictures of you, your buddies Where you guys sleep and hang out and even some of the dog would be nice. i can only use my imagination so much about where you are and what you see. i can send you a camera, i have one that i got to replaced the one that bear broke and i don't like it, but its small and stuff. i guy just moved in that just returned from afghanIstan recommended some stuff to send to you and the camera was one of them. i'm going to get another kodak camera anyways so sending it isn't that big of a deal. does the dog have a name? how about bullet? i am going to send you a couple things for him, since you guys gave him a shot do you have syriges? i'm going to send A couple vaccinations, to give him, i'll send instructions with them, if he is going to hang around he might as well be as healthy as possible, let me know about the needles. ok? i'm going tonight to get the littles for the weekend. i can't tell you how glad i am the ann is moving back. hopefully she stays in the area. makes It alot easier to keep on eye on her and the littles. i think i'm the only she's seen from here since she moved, mike was there a few hours once. because of the littles she is a part of my life even though i think she is stupid and a ho sometimes i'm willing to put up with it for the littles. most of her problems are a result of Poor parenting by her parents, she is repeating what she learned from her mom, her mom is a ho so she learned to be a ho too. so i trying to give her better parenting skills by giving her advise and mothering her a little. but anyways i'm excited to get them again and we are going to shirley's saturday. i love you take care mom

Hey, i dont know about being picky about the books, the lady who volunteered to send them is named lynda, lynda does alot of mailing boxes to the troops, during x-mas she and her friends mailed about 60 care boxes. so she is constantly gathering stuff to send. i know her husband has good taste in books, she send me a few of his Old books to me before and i enjoyed them. i'm sure that after a while you guys will get bored enough to want to read anything. tammy is putting together a box for you, she puts alot more thought into it than i do, so i know it will be great. i only sent about have of those drink packets last time and will send you the rest with This next box, i'll grab ya some tooth paste and anything else i think you may need for your toiletries, also. suzi is sadie's last puppy. she is a sweet girl. jolly and fritz surprised shirley this morning by getting stuck. shirley wasnt expecting her to go into heat again this soon after her last litter in february.Then fritz and dutch got into a fight when dutch got stuck also. ann dont usually have any issues with me getting the boys when i ask, she actually has my weekend writen down in an appointment book. she expected me at first to take them every weekend but i need to be able to get stuff done on weekends when they arent around. I took and sent you a photo of the pool getting replastered. they are working under a huge yellow tarp because of the rain, its kind of cool to stand underneath it. makes everything yellowish. i thought you'd get a kick out of that. mike's in lousiana today headed to arlington va. i gotta get back to work. i love you. mom oxoxox

Hey Fav,

Well a new month has starting again. We had a couple of cancellations so it looks like right now we're at 20 turns for June. Tomorrow my pool is getting replastered, the pools have been drained and prepped for plastering for a couple weeks but the weathers been to wet to get the job done. Joseph and I figure it will take about 16 hours to refill and a couple weeks for the plaster to fully cure before we open them for the season. Since the weather has been so crappy, no one has really complained about the pools being opened later that normal. I just hope that we don't have the same issued with this plaster job that we did last time. That was pretty ridiculous having the plaster pop and open up.

I talked, or rather texted, Ann today. I'm going to go get the littles friday after work and keep them until she gets all moved this weekend, atleast until Monday evening. I'm taking them with me to Shirley's this weekend if I can resolve my issues with scarecrow and the pager. I'm pissed at him for giving me stressed about the pager over the weekend when I made sure that everyone had a three day weekend this last holiday weekend and the pager was covered. Then he decides last minute that he was going to do this road trip to yakima and called everyone else several times each. And left work early without talking to Joseph or Rachel about it.

I'm sure Shirley will have something you can do for her, she always has something going on. Something was eating me, I got bites all over my arms. I put the air conditioners in my windows tonight, not that it's too warm or anything I just want them to be in place for the dogs if it get's hot and I'm at work. I'm going to go to Costco and get you some more jerky, if you need anything else let me know. We have more of the dry drink mix packettes to send to and I got to get your address to my book friend and she will send you about 20 books and you can pass them around to your buds.

I cut Sadie's hair last night and Suzi and Hiedi's tonight. They look awesome and pretty. Lol. Talk to you later, love you. Mom.
