We are back home and trying to get back into a routine.  It is hard to do because we really didn't have one (routine) to begin with.
I am watching? the 2 big Gergen boys in the mornings during the week and seeing that they get on their school bus (real tough job :) !)  I then go on to my Silver Sneakers exercise classes at the Y.  
The Y is trying to talk me into becoming certified to teach the classes, but I am not sure I want to "work" at a regular job again.  I may just take them up on it and become a "sub" for the regular instructors.
Jackson did GREAT at his very first State tournament in swimming.  He tried very hard and gave a very good showing.  It was fun to watch him and a nice outing with the boys and Ann and Scott.
Paul is back to his unstructured days again.  I guess they do have structure, I just don't get it. 
He reads a lot, goes to lunch with his high school buddies once a week, goes to the Y and walks on the treadmill, plays on his computer and works with his old boss to help solve problems the job might have.  Of course, in his "down" time he can always take a run to the local casino to relieve the boredom :-)

Ann, the 2 boys and I were supposed to go to Washington, D.C., the trip did not come about.  Scott's Sister took a turn for the worse and the trip got postponed till June.

We have been getting together with Paul's Sister and Brother-in Law, planning how much Alaska we can do in the alloted time we will have when we go.  It is REALLY hard. there is so much stuff to do and only a short time to do it.  We went online and gathered a lot of info and then we decided on some things that we all would love and chose them.

Our winter is s-l-o-w-l-y winding down and I can see the rabbits had a field day with some of my plantings, BUT, Mother Nature does her thing, I also see signs that a hawk may have taken out a rabbit!  Things DO even out.

It will be nice when we can get outside more and do our walks in the fresh air.
