My niece

Here are some pictures of my niece who lives here in Austin when she came out to the house a while back when she could not go to daycare. She loves being outside and was very interested in the deer that were in our backyard.

New Job

This past week I started a new job at Kidsport. I am working with my best friend and sister in Christ and together we run the after school program for kids from K-5th. This past week was our first week of school and next week we will start with an actual schedule for the kids. I will be in charge of tutor time the first hour (3:30-4:30) and then kid fit (4:30-5:30) where we will use different activities to get the kids fit and eating healthy. Attached is the website if you would like to see who all works there. There is no picture of my friend Amy but you can see the boss lady (who used to live in IL). The kids are very good and some of them are little trouble makers. I am still trying to learn names and so far ok. The website is http://gtgym.com/default.aspx I am working part-time in the afternoon and I look forward to going to work and still able to do Discovery Zone at the church on Wednesday nights. On Fridays until it gets too cold we let the kids swim in the pool that is there by the main building. Next week I will be in the pool as a "life guard" to keep peace in the pool.

Olympics in Sun City

We have a 50ft red leash that we put Ginger on outside in the back yard since there is no fence. She likes it because then she can go anywhere and we can still bring her back with just a little tug. This afternoon dad had her out back with it on her and she decided that she would invent a new Olympic event called doggie rhythmic gymnastics and here are some photos from the event. Ginger of course won the gold in the event with a perfect score. :) There was not a medal given but as you can she is bowing after finishing the event.

Freedom

Ginger has been given the option to get out of the crate while we are gone. We put her in her crate with her cong with treats and stuffing in it and just close the door but not lock it. She has been found in different parts of the house including mom and dad's bedroom on the bed in the midst of the pillows. She was also found in my room on her back. Here are some photos of the little puppy ruling the house.

It's Here!!!!!

Pro football season has arrived!!! I am glad that this whole issue with Brett Favre and where he wants to play is over and he has gone to the Jets and Pennington was released by the Jets to go to the Dolphins. Will the Dolphins lose every game this season again or will it be a better year for them?? In exactly six weeks will be the start of regular season and it should be a great year.

Huge Answer

About a month ago I was let go at a position that I had for eight months. I was stressing over how I was going to pay for all of my meds that I am on with one of them costing over seven hundred dollars. I was told about some of pharmaceuticals that help people with no insurance and limited income to help pay the cost of the meds. Last month I recieved a letter and then a phone call saying that a company has approved me for one of my meds (the cheaper of the three) and then tonight when I got home from my sister's house I found out that a different company approved me for the most expensive med and that they are waiting down at the psychiatrist's office to be picked up. Both of these companies have approved me for one year with a possibility for a renewal. So with that off my mind and not have to worry about how to pay for them was a huge answered and a huge blessing.
