Still waiting for the Tribe to send the check to Les Schwab for my brakes. They told me on Monday that it was going out on Tuesday from Wellpinit to Colville but so far it hasn't arrived. I am actually scared to drive my van because of the brakes but unfortunately it is my only transportation. I can't afford to pay the $475 myself. It's times like this that I am glad we are moving back to the Oregon coast this summer. With decent paying jobs, we won't have to rely on others to make ends meet.

Mom came home from the hospital after 10 days. She seems to be doing better but I still worry about her. I guess that's to be expected.

My brother-in-law has called my sister a few times and is well. He got to hear his little girl tell him "Bye-bye Daddy" over the phone and it made both him and my sister teary. Their daughter will be 1 on the 25th of this month.

CJ and I had our birthday last month. He turned 8 and I am now 30 (don't feel 30 though).

My 5th anniversary is coming up on the 25th. Hubby and I were wanting to go out to dinner in Spokane but it's not looking likely due to finances. We are probably just going to go to the Shanghai and sing that evening.

I am finally getting treatment for my arthritic knees. I am now in physical therapy (I call it physical torture!) and if that does not help I may be looking at surgery. I am getting to the point that I don't care if I end up having surgery. I am so tired of being in pain all the time.
