Swimming Lesson #3

Catarina did really good at swimming lessons today. She got to swim with the big kids of her class. Normally she hangs with the little kids but because of her size, she is taller than most kids her age, they had her hang with the bigger kids. She swam under water for the first time today! Best of all, she didn't cry when class was over! YAY!

First one in the pool!

Change Is Good

So, I, LeAnn, have decided to make this our family blog instead of just mine. I am going to delete Catarina's blog since a 4 year old probably shouldn't have her own blog on the internet...at least that's what her grandma says.

Catarina is getting really big and strong. She started karate tonight with her cousins, Billy & AJ. I think she is going to take after her cousin Caralinda Colton. She really enjoyed it tonight, which was her first time going. She is also a really good swimmer. She goes to RCC, aka Momma's school, on Saturday mornings for her lessons. They are only 30 minutes long, but that's enough for a 4 year old.Dan continues to work hard at the prison. He doesn't DJ very often anymore but that's okay. One shift of overtime pays a lot more than a gig does. He has been taking really good care of our home and especially our lawns. We just put in our backyard and it looks totally awesome. His next project is to paint the swing set.

LeAnn is busy being a mom, a student, and a full-time employee. I keep busy with minor projects around the house as well. Tonight I replaced the guts of the master toilet tank...all by myself. I am pretty proud of the skills that I have learned and attained while being a new home owner. I even painted the wall behind the toilet, which did not get done during the original painting of the Pepto-Bismol pink bathroom. The next project is to do the bathroom floors in the master bathroom and Catarina's bathroom. Walls before - Pepto-Bismol Pink... YUKKY!!!

Walls after - Smoked Oyster- MUCH BETTER!

You computer geeks will get a kick out of this…

I feel so good about my self today. I knew something that a computer “expert” didn’t know. It was kinda funny. He said that I get a gold star for figuring out the problem. WOW!

The problem was that one of our brand new servers was shutting down after 10-15 minutes. Of course the few people involved couldn’t figure it out. So they start bouncing ideas off each other like turning off the screen saver and other things. So the guy gets off the phone and I ask if I can make a comment. I had him go to the power settings and there the problem was. The hard disk was set to turn off after 15 minutes. He now has all settings in there set to never and he was so happy that I was eavesdropping and thinking along with the experts. What a morning!

They still have a problem to fix, but they are on their own with that one…
