Wow a Month

Wow alot goes on in a month LOL.

Let's see, hip still hurts but oh well such is life. Hubby at this point in time is still moving we are going to meet people at his new chruch tomorrow and that should be a very good thing. We are really starting to look forward to going there. He wont take over till late June there. I will have about a 25 mile drive back and forth to work. That will take some getting use right now I'm about 1.5 miles from work but thats ok we will get to be in the same house.

Paper work is DONE yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh and I have been told it looked very good. School will be out for the summer in almost a month exactly and this is one teacher that is as glad for summer to come as the kids but LOL will be just as glad for the year to start again in August.

Another thing that some of you who talk to me on IM know is that although I live in the deep south I in the last 2 years have become totally hooked on sled dog racing. The guy I really wanted to win both the Yukon Quest race and the Iditarod which are both about 1000 miles long won. His name is Lance Mackey. However he did not win the other race he was hoping to win and that was the All Alaska Sweepstakes. His sled and team was hit by a person on a snowmachine but even with that he came in 3d. I like reading about the different racers and such and it takes a lot to care for a dog team and train all year and such now that the season is over, I'm already anxiously awaiting next year's races. I think my dream trip would be to go to the Iditarod and ride in the ceremonial start and then go to several check points along the way and then be at the finish. On Lance Mackey's web site he has a pin with a saying on it that my daughter says she really likes and the more I think of it the more I love the saying. It says something all of us need to remember "If your going to dream, DREAM BIG dream Do come true!" I'm going to try to say that to myself every day for a while. Lance Mackey is proof that dreams do come true he was diagnosed with cancer in 2001 and in 2007 and 2008 won both the Idiatarod and the Yukon Quest races something no other racer has ever done back to back like that before.

Hope everyone is doing well or as well as you can be. Leave a note and let me know how you are.
