Well old friend, its been a while.

I have insomnia and an upset stomach, so I figured this was a good time to get the things on my head and out on “paper”.

For the last few weeks, I have consumed myself with this military charity.  We are having our inaugural Salsa Festival this June in a small town just north of LA.  I was giving my dad all my ideas, and then realized that I should get credit for my work!  So now I’m on the board of directors for a non-profit, and I can do work from home when I feel well enough.  And trying to stop me when I feel good is no easy feat.  I have accomplished so much in a short amount of time, it makes me feel good about myself again, in regards to the working world.  Of course nobody gets paid, but the gratification is wonderful.

We had a small fundraiser tonight for the bigger fundraiser in June, and I didn’t really realize how much I had invested myself into this project.  With two days left, I had only 4 RSVP’s from 500+ people I invited through FB.  It was a beer tasting with an awesome dinner and great prizes.  Almost everybody left with something.  We had great donors.  But it shocked me to see that only FOUR people said they would come.  Even if this weren’t for charity, I would come for a $20 beer tasting! LOL I need to get over myself and be happy we had a good fun night last night.

I have also been in massive amounts of pain.  Right now I have the Butrans patch, Dilaudid and Soma with Zofran to help everything go down.  Its a miracle drug.  But I’m passed out most of the time, and it seems as if I’m going in to get an epidural every week lately.  I’ve had my back and my neck done, and going in for my back again.  Its not bad because they put me under and I get great rest!  haha

And we are finally in the new house, which I love.  It feels more like home than the ranch did.  The ranch was a great property.  This is a great house, and have beautiful flowers and great fruit trees, berries, everything!

And this double black thumb is so glad we have a gardner!
