Hi Everyone,
Well I need to brag, so be prepared. Cheyenne had her final indoor soccer game for the season. Her team won 11-3.... Woo Hoo! Guess who scored 4 times???? Cheyenne did !!!! She scored 4 times.
We are so proud of her. Not only did she score 4 times she also had 2 assists.
For those of you who may not know, she did all of this Winter Season while have an ingrown toenail on both sides of her "big" toe. She goes this Friday to have them cut out.
She already has some coaches calling wanting her to be on their outdoor Summer teams. It will all depend on how long she will have to go without playing, while her toe heals.
That is the latest news from our house.
Hugs, Barbee

Hi Everyone,
I hope all of you are finally getting some Spring like weather. It has actually been "hot" here the past few days.
Not a lot has changed. Charlie still is taking each day, one by one. His day today was very challenging with his breathing. He had chills last night, so he did not sleep well. Today, he was bloated like a hot air balloon. The best way for him to find comfort was standing. So he spent most of the day, standing behind the chair watching TV.
He wanted to go to town for dinner this evening, so we did. He can not eat much at one time any more, so we settled on some appetizers and then he wanted ice cream. So we went to the "Little Dipper" and had an ice cream and sat outside watching the traffic go by, then came home. We really enjoyed watching the faces of the little children that parents were bringing in for their special treats.
That is about it from us today. Hope all of you had a relaxing day.
With this Flu warning, please be careful in every place you go and everything you do.
Hugs, Barbee

Happy Easter
I hope all of you had a wonderful Easter, with family and friends.
We had a small gathering for dinner this year. Heather and her family, Don & Sue and Bill & Midge. Midge made coconut cream, chocolate and lemon meringue pies. YUMMY! Sue made a fresh fruit salad, with the best strawberries, OH gosh all the food was so good. We had turkey instead of traditional ham. Too much salt in ham, YIKES. It was obvious all the food was enjoyed by the losening of belts and the "gasping EXHALES & MOANS & GROANS" going on around the room. We all had a very nice visit after dinner, too.
Today, Charlie and I had some errands to run. Had to go by H&R Block and to the medical supply store. It was raining and chilly all day. I am hoping Charlie does not catch a chill from being in and out in the rain. He has been resting since we made it back home.
Till next time,
Barbee

Charlie Update
Hi Everyone.
Well Charlie has been home from the hospital for a week. Things are still not good. He still has a nagging cough that is keeping him awake most of the time. He is having nose bleeds, too. He told me today, he feels like he is getting a cold. His throat is hurting all the time, so the meds they gave him for that, are not working. He is still very weak but is trying so hard to keep himself busy. He has been trying to sleep, both with and without his C-Pap, no difference he still coughs. He is getting really tired, of fighting the fight. You can see it in his face and in his attitude. So please continue to pray for him. Pray that he does not give in. Pray that when he goes to see his Pulmonary Doctor, he can talk Charlie in to getting the ICD. The Cardiologist, Primary Doctor and Pulmonary Doctor were all in shock at how much worse his heart is now, than it was in January.
We are looking forward to this weekend and celebrating Easter with the grandchildren. They are excited and we both love to watch their faces, when they get so excited. When those three children are around, Charlie lights up. Each of them enjoy building models with Grandpa, so what more could he want?
Happy Easter Everyone,
Barb
