Sunday

Well I slept in this morning. Got up and read the paper or at least the adds. We then took a neighbor to the airport and stopped at the Casino for about an hour as it didn't take long to lose my money. Carl sprayed the weeds in the yard and napped in his chair and I played on computer and just messed around. not much going on today so latter

Saturday

Well it is a wonderful Saturday here in Sunny AZ. We are so sorry to here about all the bad weather that is happening up northern MN. Hope the water doesn't get to high and put any one out of their homes. The Ohio Nordins are visiting AZ. and are staying with brother Ron in Queen Creek. Julie Nordin is down also and is here for her Mom's Birthday and it was yesterday. Our friend Harry's Daughter in law will be here on Tues April the 7 and they plan on leaving on the 11th and we are sure going to miss him. We are fixing dinner for him tonight. All is fine here and Carl is taking a nap in his chair. I think we have to get rid of our reclining chairs for they must be crused for as soon as we sat in them and lean back our eyes goes shut and our mouth drops open and we start to snore so I think there is a problem.

Mesa, AZ.

Sat. night and all is well at #3 Nordins place. We went to Brother Ron's House and had pizza and fruit and salad and desert and everything was so good.
We had our annual garage sale here in Sun Land where we live and we went out for about an hour and spent two dollars. I think there is something
wrong with me as that is all I found. I love to garage sale but I don't need any thing. Harry came over this evening and we watched the Suns play
ball and then switched to dancing with the stars and I was surprised that he watched that show so goes to show you what you can enjoy at
93 years young. Well guess I will hush and watch the news so till next time

Here again

It has been a busy day again and we are getting ready to go to the AZ. Opry and dinner. We plan on leaving about 5p.m. I made peanut Brittle for Harry
and Candy and had Breakfast for them before they left on their journey for the day. They were off to see some friends in Surprise. We had a southern
breakfast of Biscuits and Sausage gravy and eggs and of course Grapefruit picked fresh from our tree in the back yard. Well they just called and are
safe back at Harry's and she didn't even kill him.
        Talked to Jake our Grandson today and he wasn't feeling good and had stayed home from school. He will be glad when spring break gets here as
he and his Mother are going down to Mo. to see her Dad. Sure wish they were coming here maybe next year.
       The weather is 82 now and the sun is shinning and it is wonderful how could we ask for more. the only thing we could ask for more is that everyone
be as happy as we are. Good weather and Good Friends and Family and Good Health as far as we know, now that is a little bit of Heaven.

fun with Heidi. We love just spending time with her. She has grown into such a wonderful young adult and so much fun but we are lucky as all of our kids are
great and we love to spend time with them. Well have a fabulous day.

then came home and Heidi went Swimming and Allyson had a flat tire and Carl went to help her and then she came over for a while and it is all ways so good
to see her. Then Helen and Gerald came over and we had cookies from the market and Margie Rolls and if you haven't had a Margie Roll then you haven't had
a good roll. Heidi went and met Jake for dinner and she took Carl's truck and he lived over it. Ha We have fun about him and his truck.

Hello

Well here it is Thursday and Carl had to work to day but I had the day off of my jobs as I had to go to the Doctor. I have been having some little times that I
just didn't feel right so went to Dr. yesterday and she sent me to a Cardiologist and now I have to have these test down but I am waiting till our company is
gone. My blood pressure was up and he changed my meds. So now I have to go through the deal with Carl as it will be ever time I move he will say are
you alright and you can't tease him about it for he will get all pouty. Enough about that it is a wonderful day here and Margie was the one that took me to the
Dr. and we went to Breakfast at McDonald s and we had a blast. We giggled all the while and I think that is what life is all about. I read the Kids Blog. and
Baby Nordins and sure do enjoy that as it keeps us up to date on what is going on in life and their mimds.

A wonderful day in AZ.

I hope everyone is fine today and I know some of you are having ruff weather but here in Sunny Az. we are about 85 and the breeze is blowing some so it is
just wonderful or as I like to say our little bit of Heaven. Daughter# 3 Heidi is coming down this Fri. for a week and we are really looking forward to it. We
are going down to the Military Base in Tuscon and stay a couple of days and go to Tombstone and down to Bisbee they are neat towns and will be lots of
fun as Heidi is so much fun to be with. We will have dinner here on Thursday as there are some friends and family that wants to see her so we are having Mexican
night and maybe she will help me cook as she is a real good cook.
We went up to Canyon Lake for dinner last Friday night with some friends and the place was packed and the service was not so good and we had just been there on Valentine Day as our Niece Allyson took us out for dinner and it was packed and the service was great and of course the food is always great. I think
that is my favorite place to go. The drive up is wonderful and once there you can dine in or outside and I love to be outside.
Well guess I will get back to work and clean some more on My Pig Pen and wake up Carl from his Nap.
