Dear Friends and Family,
I know for many today is a holiday, but not for this Dialysis Nurse. Some of the kids and grandkids are having a snowday up in the canyon. That sounds very fun and I'm sure they will have alot of it. We had visits from SunDee,Randy and Michelle and Kent, Angie, Aly , Baylee and Carter---as it was a long weekend. Although we did get some family time in, we never got the whole family together at the same time with work schedules and a little thing called the "the flu bug".
Another negative was our own personal problem of having septic tank problems at our house. Well, I guess now that I'm telling it on the blog, it's not too personal now. Huge drifts of snow, bitter temperatures and septic tank problems are NOT a good mix. Hopefully before the day is out, thanks to lots of help from our friends and family, all will be well.
Marty is home alone today while I'm at work, but he says he is doing ok when I called home to check on him. Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Marty and LaRee

Happy Valentine's Day 2008
Dear Blog friends and family,
Happy Valentine's Day to all. I hope you all had a great day----romantic, sweet or at least FUN. On a positive note, Marty & I got to spend the ENTIRE day together. I was supposed to get some work in, but became very ill. The flu bug has been going around and it bit me. I am so scared Marty will be next. He does NOT need any additional problems. I spent the last part of the day Wednesday at the dentist and Marty saw Dr. Thakur and got on yet MORE meds for a fungal infection , again, in his throat. He is so tired of all the medication he is having to take!!!
Our winter snow is getting deeper and deeper. I love it and think it is beautiful, but then, I am NOT the one who has to push and stack it. That has always been Marty's job and so it is ironic that we are having more than we have had for years in Bear Lake ...and it has been a challenge.
He continues to have trouble maintaining a comfortable temperature. He is either freezing or roasting.
Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.
Love, LaRee and Marty

Hello to all,
I'll just forgo the apology speech about why it has taken me so long to get an update posted. We are still having freezing, really freezing cold weather here, but it is fun to see the snow piled so high....kind of like the good old days!!
Marty is trying hard to exercise each day and has cut way back on most of his medications. I'm sure that is going to help in the long run, but is hard for him right now. We went out of town Monday for appointments and that really wore him out.
He is trying to help around the house as he can, but he knows there is nothing more important to me than him feeling good and resting when he can. He does hate being the one home while I am at work. We love you all and thank you again for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. Love, LaRee , and of course, Marty
