Labor Day

Labor Day, you can all thank my beautiful mother for having this day off, as 51 years ago today I was born. They said ,"we must make this a National Holiday". So today as I awoke to snow, dogs farting in bed and the smell of Steve's cooking I say to you all, Have a great day. Make each day count. Life is great. Thanks for all the love from our family and friends. ChowBella

More fun

The last few weeks have been a blast. Jet blast that is. I was working one night and had not been on the ramp for awhile, a 757 came in and I was about to chalk the wheels, I must have been a bit close to the engine. I felt intense heat (you know the kind, like when Steve walks in the room, hubba bubba). Next thing I know my feet are off the ground and I'm doing the Moon walk minus the ground. Luckily my former Seal training reminded me, when all else fails protect the head. So as I complete (it would have won me Gold, in the Jet Blast Olympics), I begin to be blasted back towards Earth. I said to myself "tarmac hard! protect, the noggin," so I used my Incredible Hulk arm and landed full force on my arm, . I felt pain with, heat from the engine, was sure I had broken ribs, but flying 50 feet in the air will do that. My first thought was, I do hope someone has videotaped this, as I could use the $50,000 on America's Funniest. But alas, no one saw me, I got myself up and somehow managed to get to my car, I had a fellow friend drive, and then to keep me conscious, I asked him about his first relationship, and his first kiss. Hum no comments on that. Was in the horsepistal (that's what we call it in Wyoming) 4 days.

Parker Family Reunion

Last weekend we spent at Steve's wonderful sisters (Suzy) house, Im pretty sure, she will go straight to Heaven when she dies, hopefully she will visit me DownUnder! By the way all his family is awesome!
