First Sunburn

Alas-- I have not learned to put sunscreen on. Memorial Day I got a nice burn on arms and face.... today I now have a burn on lower back on up. My shoulders are feeling the heat right now. I bet I don't sleep too good tonight. sigh. The rest of the summer I will be better! It is my quest.
The pool is feeling wonderful. So glad I have part of Friday and Sat. off so I can enjoy it weekly.
I started class last night. My teacher is a chiropractor so he at least knows his stuff-- and he has good stories too! Since he is 40 I get his jokes! It is fun for me to think I understand them while the 18-20 year olds sit there and are confused. HA! 2nd time at college will be so much better. There are about 20 of us in the room. Kind of cramped, but o-well. He uses the book so that is great too! We will cover 17 chapters in 12 weeks. I think the Anatomy part will be okay-- the physiology part may stump me. I am a little worried about all the memorization. I was never very good at that. O-well I will stay positive and all will be well!
It was good to see Grandma and Grandpa. It is hard to see them aging so much. I worry about G'pa being alone at the trailer. I told G'ma she and G'pa will have to share a room. She said she didn't want to because they would be calling each other's names all night making sure they are okay! Cute. I really like Chris and Pam's yard. Chris put in a small pond--the fish keep it clean (he adds salt so a bottom feeder can be there.) Maybe for Dad's birthday i will get him a Lowe's card so he can get himself one for our backyard. (Get rid of the silly fountain that just has grass in it.)
Sylvan is picking up some. I sure hope we get more kids so the summer is good to us.

Kenny Part 2

Alas-- Kenny did reschedule... and it was for today. It is NOT raining, it is a beautiful day... but it is Sunday. I had already decided I wouldn't go today... and then I found out I could get my $$ back for the cancelled concert! How cool is that!!! So, I await my refund. ($$ will go to tuition)..
I have my Anatomy and Physiology book!!! I think I will start reading it this week. I will take it with me to Missouri... and I will start making vocabulary flash cards. We'll see how much I get done between now and May 28 when class starts. I just really want to do well...and think I can do better at studying now than last time I was in school.
I have been going to Coppell again. I am training new people on how to do what I do. It is a lot of fun. I am also training a lady at my center--I really like training people, hopefully this will make it easier when I need to be to school full-time.
It is pool time here. I have been getting the water checked....and I bought recliners for the pool area. (Thanks to Kaijsa I got 4)-- so we can all hang out at the pool. I am looking forward to summer....maybe not the heat, but that's okay.
Dad spent the week in Utah. I had the house to myself. Sounds so exciting, but not really. It is good to have him back.

Kenny Part 1



I have been looking forward to the Kenny Chesney Concert for some time. I knew it would likely rain, as it has hardly stopped raining for the last week. I was not disappointed-- the rain started practically the second Lady Antebellum started. Ah-well a little rain never stopped me. They were great. I really enjoyed Lady A. Miranda Lambert sang too. The young ones liked her-- not my style of country-- hardly country I say. After she was done the rain was just too much. We left and glad we did as Kenny had to stop his set,--- HE RESCHEDULED! WAHOO! I will get to hear him in 2 weeks.

Looking into becoming a ultrasound tech. The program I want to get into only has 10 people a year!!! yikes! Let's hope I can get the grades and interview well!
