I caught him up on mom and how she is doing and about a big decision I have had to make about her. She loves it where she is at but has deteriorated both physically and mentally to the point that if she even gets a little under the weather she needs more care than where she lives can provide and I live to far away to go over there all the time plus I work. Also since Ken died moms finances went to only her ss and what was left of her anuity which is almost gone now. not enough to cover food and rent so I have come out of retirement to help her out and it is getting too much...so... today I am going to have to tell her that she is going to need to move to a group home or care center. I am praying for the right words to say. It is not easy getting old...for either parent or child.
Just to catch you up...Jon is doing fine health wise. The business is hanging in there..had a couple of close calls this summer but we got through them and the business is beginning to progress forward a little bit now. Yeah. I am still working 2 days a week..probably forever. I broke my left leg and tore the miniscus in my right knee somehow last spring just walking down the hall in our house and twisting my leg wierd. I walked on it for 2 months before the insurance would pay for an MRI and by the time they did it and found out it was broken , it was almost healed by then(wouldn't you know). It must not have been a bad break but it hurt like crazy for almost the whole 2 months. I have a high pain tolerance thank goodness.
Jonathan is thinking about getting his engineering degree and loves working at Rathion. Carrie Sue is taking a medical secretary course so she can type medical stuff at home for an in home job.
Tabitha is 3, Jonathan is 18 months and just started walking, we were worried he was so late but I guess we shouldn't have he is now of course getting into everything. His eyes stayed blue and he has sandy hair. Really strange for a Woolston. But he looks and acts just like his Grampa (Jon)I will post pictures next time.
Brian is working as a pipefitter. Ashlee was working at The children's place ( clothing store) but got layed off this last week because of slow business so she is looking for something again. They are in their own apartment for now.They are doing ok but have their ups and downs. They both have a lot of growing up to do.
Well gotta go and take mom to get her hair done. Hope to get back here again before too much time slips by.
