Turkey Trot

They have an annual Turkey Trot  fun run at my son's school- and this year we were all able to go!!  They do a little dance, run around a field and play music- it is all in the name of fun and physical fitness!!! 

J was so happy to see that we all came!!!  Then after the trot- we then took the kids up to Williams for a surprise on the Polar Express...... enjoy these pics so far.... more to come








I had baked a couple of Pumpkin pies.....

Surprise....


Rob's new Blue Suede Shoes...... this will go perfect with our eclectic ornaments we have acquired over the years..... Rob loved them

Exciting evacuation today

So there was a  milk truck that hit a tanker truck today on the Freeway right at I-10 and Chandler Blvd-  there was an explosion and both trucks started on fire- one with milk the other with fuel-  
It was a huge deal on the news-    Rob actually saw the accident after it happened in his rear view mirror and he called me.   I heard the explosion when it occurred, but didn't know at the time what it was.... well as the morning went on..  they evacuated the area school, hotels restaurants- whatever was in a 1 mile radius of the accident

We got a call for O's school and I went to pick him up-  one of the many benefits of being at home- I was able to still work and he was so very good while I was working!!!   


Here are some recent photos with the Gus clan

End of October.....2011

Another month of 2011 to a close, man, this year has gone by fast.

Of course this year, we went out trick or treating and the weather was pretty good- not too hot, and not too cold-  when it was all said and done, the boys were a little sweaty with their masks on- but they didn't care.   They were more concerned with their "loot"

So here are some pictures of Batman and Optimus Prime!!!

So, onto my next discussion......  I am a part of Facebook... and there are at times, some very interesting comments noted people, some that really piss me off, and other that are just down right weird..... that is the beauty of social media.... but after getting into some "heated" exchange of words or seeing other peoples debates,  I am not too forth coming......   Not that I don't have my opinion- there is no lacking in that dept. , but sometimes I am just not in the mood, or feel "up to " write some long ass note or put my 2 cents in..... But here, I can do whatever I want on this thing!!!

So here goes,        ok, so the Duggars are having their 20th child??  really, do you really think you  need to populate the world anymore-  time to put a cork in it- or tie it off

This Penn state issue with coach and the so called sexual abuse of a 10 yr old boy - makes me feel sick-  once again, let's cover something up and then it comes all out later on after we have put these people on some pedestal( Coach, assisted coach)  for the ones who were told about the abuse and did nothing, or half assed it and didn't follow up on the reports, shame on you--just as much!!!!

Dr Murray conviction- first off, I agree with this verdict.... but let's not forget the drug addict is also to blame...... oh, yes, it is a disease, and who knows how he got into the Propofol- but wow- everyone wants to go after the Dr-  Now, do not take this the wrong way, he did provide, order the meds, and supply him ( and also had some questionable actions going on) but what about the pharmacists- or pharmacy or supplier - who was questioning this?? Isnt a little strange for 1 dr to get this amount- I really do not know the particulars on this- so not sure how this all went down- but where did this Dr GET the stuff from and was this questioned?????
AS Nurses and Doctors, upon getting your degree you do take an oath and promise to uphold your actions........  I hope the Dr does get his medical license taken away- but of course he has 4, ( in 4 different states) hopefully, he will not get to practice in any of them.

   By the way, for those of you who do not know, Michael Jackson's Thriller ALBUM was the first one I bought when I was a kid..... I was/am a  fan of his music..... such a waste and shame....... all I am going to remember is his stupored,  slurred speech caught on the dr's  I-Phone       Well
 I guess that is all my ranting for now!!!




PS-  I did get a really nice complement from a pt. today- she said I was very motivating, and positive and that made her very positive and motivated about her health and well being-  WOW, I Can really  make a difference from my chair! 

  Oh wait- I have to watch Parenthood- so pics will come-  I have to devote some serious time for my  year 2000 compueter to download, so I will post next, the pics!!
