Happy New Year!
2009 started very differently for us this year. I had to take Paul to the ER at midnight on the 1st but not before having to pull over twice so he could puke. They found 5 kidney stones in his kidneys. Poor guy was in a lot of pain until the numerous pain med injections took effect. This makes two ER visits for Paul since we have been married. We are now laying low at home while Paul enjoys a consistent vicadin trip until he can hopefully pass all the stones on his own and soon. 

Besides taking care of my Paulie, I was so excited that we got our furnace fixed today! Now I don't have to keep my scarf and jacket on inside anymore..yeah. It was hard getting on the plane in AZ following our fun quick holiday trip to come back to the arctic, I mean Michigan.  I am still working with the same social service agency and teaching dance at night and the past few days off have been wonderful. 

I have decided not to make any New Years resolutions this year and then maybe I could actually follow through with the ones I "make" every year..lol. Paul has told himself he isn't going to drink one soda the entire year...any bids on how long he will last? 

Best wishes to everyone in the new year!  Go Utes !!!!!
