My Turn - to a very small degree






We've had a nice summer. We've spent time with family and friends and stayed close to home. The weather was crummy in general but we still found ways to have fun. We are looking forward to extending our summer soon by taking a trip to California for some sun, Disneyland and family time. I can hardly wait!

The last few days were an interesting change from the last few years. I had a little turn to be the sick one while Scott held down the fort. I had some stomach bug that made me stay in bed for nearly 3 days. I know it's nothing compared to Scott's solid 6 months in hospital and all he's been through but it did give me a tiny glimpse of how he felt - and vice versa. It really is best when everyone is healthy!!! It's hard being the sick one - needy, useless and whiny(in my case only). It's also hard to be the healthy one and take care of the family, house, and the sick person but Scott did a great job. I think he was truly relieved to be on the other side for a change.

Our current goal is for Scott to stay healthy not get that awful stomach bug before or during our upcoming trip! Wish us luck.

  1. How are the Palmers? It sounds like you are plugging along. We hope that you have a great time (or had a great time) in California. You deserve the break. We will miss seeing you as you pass through Utah. Wish we could be there. But life in Florida is good. Take care!
