Wow, it's hard to believe it's a new year and I haven't written a word of a blog since September 2011. I don't post my blog to anyone....so you can't really be upset with me for the lack of writings. And since I'm not in a writing mood, I may just sit here for a few and ponder what it is exactly I want to write about...maybe last year, maybe this year, maybe something about a New Year a New You, or a new me in this case.
Okay, I have it. And while I'd like to focus in on New Year New Me, 2011 was a pretty good one and I don't want to forget all the memories the year brought.
Let's start with New Year New Me 2011....
1) I joined a gym! Those who know me know this was no easy task. And for me still to be consistantly 'gyming' one year later is pretty remarkable. I found I like exercise not only for the newfound energy it has given me, but also a fun (yes I said fun) activity to do with my husband and friends.
2) Let's move on to vacations! We took a couple. Our first was to Sedona with my parents over Spring Break. Really this was one of our best family trips we've had. Lots of sun, fresh air, hiking, relaxing, swimming, eating, and reading. What more could I ask for?
3) Sedona for me turned into a trip to Okalahoma. A few days before we left Sedona my Grandma Dyer (Julia) started to have stroke like symptoms. Of course someone sick in my family is my cue to hop on a plane and do what I can to help. My Grandma is an amazing woman, someone I love dearly and credit for so much of who I am (another blog maybe). Of course I'd skip out on work, ditch my family and buy a plane ticket from Phoenix to Tulsa to be with her. To make a long story short after crazy hail storms, tornado warnings, ER visit(s), and lots of tests we found out she had myasthenia gravis. Thanks to my persistence (if I don't say so myself) and an amazingly smart and intuitive GI Dr. she got the diagnosis and could finally be on medication to help her! The medical world is so frustrating! Every person needs a medical advocate who can help them weed through the bureaucracy of medicine.
4) Let's move ahead...May. I feel like I should have a lot to say about May. After all it was my little Charlie's sixth birthday, mine and Eric's thirty-third birthday. Grandma Dyer and Grandma Jans birthday. Baby Weston was born (super exciting for us). Maybe I'll come back and elaborate more on May later.
5) July was a good month. Jacob turned thirteen. I have a teenager! Seems a little impossible, but I guess it's true. I want to write a separate blog about Jacob. He deserves his very own.
July Eric, me, my parents, and brother Jesse all went to Maui for our friend Jessica Daumens wedding. We used our timeshare and were able to stay in a very large three bedroom two bath condo on the beach with the whole family. Amazing, amazing, amazing! Glad I'd been hitting the gym.
6) Cerner
Cerner is a word I've become very familiar with the past six months. A word that's allowed me to travel, see new places, meet new people, foster new friendships, and grow my knowledge in this ever changing, complex, crazy world of technology.
Cerner has taken me to:
Manatee Florida (didn't I blog about this?)
Washington DC (I wanted to blog about this)
Las Vegas (Boring and I mean that)
Wellington Florida
Wellington Florida
and Lord willing in a few weeks back to
DC!
