December Is Here...

December is here and I am glad. Thanksgiving was nice, too. We had another good visit with our friends the Leech's. It seems the road to Steamboat gets shorter every time we drive it. We did have a longer trip home though as we drove through some of the bad weather the Mountains and plaines states had last weekend. I always say I don't want snow to visit me, I will go visit it. And we certainly got some on this trip.

I have an appointment on Wednesday with my neurologist to determine just how bad the two discs in my lower back are herniated. I will be so glad when this problem is fully diagnosed and resolved.

I called Kip tonight and spoke to him briefly. He will be coming back to Arkansas Christmas Eve and he will be staying home for good. His diesel training will be complete. I'm very proud of his accomplishments up there in Alaska. He has a job lined up here with an excavating company and he will maintain all their heavy equipment. I know he is very anxious to be back and near his fiancée, Jessica. One would hope he is will be excited to be around us, too. But I know how that goes.

Well, Have a great week. I hope to have more interesting posts soon.

P.S. Are any of you like us and yet to decorate for Christmas? I need to get that monkey tree up!
