Hi,
Wow! It will sure be great to see you. I have had you on my mind for months because I finished my Christmas letter and then the computer "broke". (guilty conscience). I moved it then to my lap top and never got the pictures attached to it. Really a lame excuse but it is the truth. I kept thinking I should just send a note telling you all I was thinking of you at least but didn't even do that.
A month ago we met Debbie and Danny and went out for a hamburger and then to The Great Indoors (home furnishings) and then a couple of weeks ago I went to a Partylite candle party at Debbie's and she had the whole family there. We took pictures and put them on their computer so you might have already seen them.
Family news:
Bill is doing income tax for another month and loving every moment. He is also starting to think of his garden so soon I should see little green sprouts. He has planted flowers. The winter has been mild so many are still blooming from last year.
Peter is busy with school and writing lots of papers. His girlfriend is in school, too.
Tim just got back from Japan and next weekend goes to Ohio for just 3 days this time. Their third child is due May 8 (we want my mom's birthday, May 10). Lori is doing fine. Brianna and Jeremiah are very busy with softball and baseball. Our time is spent at different ball parks from now until next December.
I am still at Montclair High School in the Library. I can't believe I have been here 15 years this month.
We are feeling older and have come to the conclusion that we have to get back in the exercise routine. That is the hardest work of all--deciding to do it and following through with a routine. I come home from work and if I eat dinner I am not worth much after that. One or two days a week I work 13 hours so I use that as an excuse for the other 3 days. Ha. I have tried to find a neighbor to be accountable to but none of them like to walk, or they work a different shift. Guess I have to grow up and do it myself, huh. We ride our bikes some but not regularly.
Well, you are now up to date, I think. Wish all of your family could come, too. Peter told me that Jennifer is coming soon so we will enjoy seeing her.
See you soon, we hope.
God bless.
Jan and family
Hi,
I may be in Southern California on business the end of next week and may be able to stop by the LA area, perhaps on Saturday the 15th of March. Will have a rental car and maps, so I just need to know what everyone has on their schedule.
Debbie, check with your mom and sisters and maybe we can all get together.
Hope all is well.
