Update

I told everyone that I would update the blog on what is going on. As of right now Richard and I are separated. We need to work some things out to see where we end up together as a couple. I appreciate your patience and respect at this time.

I will up date as appropriate.

Oh and my brother Dylan left for his mission May 5. We love him very much and miss him lots and lots, but we know he will be a wonderful missionary.

All good things must come to a end...

There will be more to come!

Please don't ask me a lot of questions
everything will come out in time.

Thank you for all your help and prayers.

Please just give me some time.

God bless

I survived layoffs!!!

The hospital has been over staffed so they said there were going to be layoffs 2 nurses and 2 techs. We were all told no one would be safe (meaning seniority.) I was nervous because I do not get along with one of our bosses, so I have been on pins and needles for the last week. Well it was posted this morning and I was not on the list of layoffs!!! Hooray for me survived my first layoff scare!!

One night at work

Richard was bored one night at work and decided to google himself. To his surprise what can up was information on one of his fights. He made and MMA fight list! For all those people out there that haven't believed him here is the proof.

This was his last fight were he was up against a guy two weight classes above him, (that is a huge difference in fighting.) He did end up losing because he broke his own ribs while twisting his opponent in a lock. The other fighter was about to tap when Richard did, sad story but I am so proud of him.

For all you nonbelievers look it up...

What a season

I know it has been a while but this holiday season has been crazy. I have tons of pictures I want to post but I don't know where my cord is to down load any of the photos! The holidays were both good and bad. I got the flu during Christmas and Ricard had to work. We were able to have Christmas morning together and it was a lot of fun. This was the first year we could actually get each other and our family something. Richard and I spoiled each other and we had plenty of gag gifts.

For New Years, Richard had to work, luckily it was the day shift, we spent the evening with Richards aunt and uncle and cousins. We played games, ate snacks and had fun with family. We also got to watch Zahara for New Years and watched her for a few days. She is so cute and a lot of fun to babysit, but she is also good birth control :)

I am still at the hospital in the emergency room working graveyards. I love working there because I learn so much each time. I have worked in the ER for a year and half and have always let the stronger persons do compressions for CPR, well I finally had my turn. I have been in plenty of codes but have always done the running, this time it was me, a nurse and a firer fighter. The nurse got some meds out, I called the alarm while the firer fighter did compressions. It is very exhausting doing CPR and the firer fighter needed a rest, I had no choice but to jump in. I was nervous because I don't feel that I have enough strength to do a good job, that is why I let the strong people do it rather than me, but I jumped in and did the best I can. I am also back in school this semester and I am so happy for that, I have been going crazy without it.

Richard is finally on shift at ATI, which means he has a very set schedule with both days and nights. Because the company is just starting up there are a lot of quirks, which means accidents, which equals a very busy Richard. He has already used his ambulance, his HazMAT stuff, and fire equipment. I think it is safe to say that he is in his element at work.

We want to let everyone know we are both doing well, and our life is going to get really busy again this year. But it is on purpose, so sorry to all our friends and family if you don't hear much from us. We have high hopes for this year. . . So bring it on!!
