Update on my life.

About a week before Makayla went into the hospital I got a new car. I traded in the 4-runner for a Ford Focus. I just love it. I've always liked cars over suv's and trucks. It gets much better gas mileage. Some time that same week I started to have a break down. I took myself off my meds and so much was going on. The worst part is that Makayla hadn't even gotten sick yet. Anyways the girls at work told me to leave and go do something for myself. So I went home changed my clothes and went for a drive. I went to Reno, then up Mt Rose hwy through Incline Village all the way to South Lake. I went to my favorite waterfall, but believe it or not it was all dried up. Can you believe it. The scenery was still pretty. This a picture of the viking castle at Emerald Bay. Needless to say that on Friday when I got the call that Makayla had to go to the ER I wasn't doing to well to start out. But we made it through. All the time I spent at home with her gave me time to work on the costumes. I'm on the last one. We also just finished up the ATC swap that my SJ buddies and I were doing. I got to hostess it so I got to see all of the cards first. I'll be mailing them out on Monday. I'll also take pictures and post soon. We will be starting a new swap for Christmas. Just as I was getting excited at all the leaves changing colors we got snow yesterday and today. I was going to drive out to Hope Valley and take some pictures, but not with the snow. This was my first weekend without the girls in about a month. Hopefully the next weekend they are with Rob the weather will be nicer to take pictures.
