3 weeks later

January is gone! Taxes are done!
Becca is pretty well settled, she has some painting projects yet to finish but all in all she's progressing :) The Reserves have dangled a carrot to her in the form of a TDY this summer to South Africa, her enlistment is up this spring, we'll see what happens there.
Tinsley is a hoot! eats, sleeps, and starts over, doing what babies do best. Ashley and Josh are doing well as new parents. We've re-listed the house and are thinking we've made a much better decision as to real estate agent, this one is giving us a sense of confidence ... all in all it's great to be in the second worst real estate market in the nation :)
This winter so far, has been a warm one, except for this weekend we woke up to 18 degrees, ouch! we could still use more rain or this summer will get very interesting.
The canoe is refinished and looks good! I plan on taking it up to Azalea Park in Roswell, the Chattahoochee flows through there and there are lots of paddlers, maybe I can interest a buyer?
I finally broke down and saw a Dr. about the tendonitis in the elbow, scared of needles and pain! a shot in the elbow... which did not hurt and two days later virtually pain free! I'm an idiot for suffering months. I still have lots to learn! :-)
Since I started this post there's been a need for editing. Rebecca is going through some home owner tribulations. A washing machine hose upstairs has leaked, bottom line she'll be getting a new ceiling, wall, and likely new kitchen cabinets. Waiting to see what the insurance company says. Good part is she has competing contractors who double as dinner dates!

  1. Jim, Tell her not to worry, It could be worse. Arlene and I have already replaced the furnace, air conditioner, and added a humidifier. Oh yes, I forgot about the kitchen sink mixing faucet and supply line for the toilet that were leaking. The condo was empty for two years before Arlene purchased the property. Glad Ashley and the new baby are doing so well.
    Hey, you know sometimes it's good to tell a doctor when something is not right rather than play the "macho man". Take care, Bob

    1. I've definitely learned my lesson! Sounds like you've been quite busy also. We'll be seeing Rebecca soon to do some painting possibly, she had to light a fire under the insurance company yesterday, should hear something today.
      Y'all take care!
