My Work.

    Well, I am kind of doing these blog entries in reverse order. Aunt Pat took us around and I was able to get a picture of the place I was going to work. The tallest building is the actual hospital. Any guesses on what floor Radiology is? Amanda, Ella, and I tried to go see my new boss but she was out sick.

This other picture I took so you could see the building I will be working in up close.

A Combination

Ella and I were enjoying ourselves while Amanda was making it possible for us to continue living, by working at her job at 'Learning is Fun'.
She was making more noise but when she saw the camera, she focused on it instead of talking more. The camera and I were safe, that time*. Later on she did end up slobbering on me. *(Notice the big bubble she blows, I had to protect the camera before the bubble became a slobber bomb.)

Ella enjoys flying. ...and Mommy and Daddy enjoy watching her fly!


Ella gets bored easy so we have to change things up pretty often.

Well there you have it. I have thrown out all my cards, 3 videos!

Stake Wide Cancellation

This past Saturday we got a call from a member of the Elder's Quorum Presidency. He told us that Church was cancelled on Sunday. Not only our Ward, but the entire Stake! Apparently 30 young women were "taken out" by the norovirus at Girl's Camp. Norovirus can be deadly to little ones because of dehydration. It consists of diarrhea, vomiting, etc.
Come to find out a friend, Sheri, saw the homecoming. She was leaving the Temple and noticed a horrific smell. She described it as smelling like dead fish or throw-up. Girls were laying on the ground, there were cleaning supplies in some of their hands. She didn't know what to make of it until we told her that we had a Stake-wide cancellation. That is when she told us the story.

Extended Family Walk

For those of who were not there, I have included this clip for you to enjoy. It really isn't much but some may enjoy it.

Ella Smiles

This is an attempt to catch Ella smiling. This has been brought about because of Mom Winston wanting to see her smile. (Sorry, it's not her biggest, but it's there!)

UPS Loader NO MORE!

I am pleased to type that I will longer longer be loading, or unloading, for UPS. In memory of my loading days I have posted the above picture. I honestly will miss loading. I enjoy the game Tetris and loading was just a life sized game of Tetris, except you felt the weight of the pieces! It was satisfying work to build a solid wall. There are many things I won't miss about loading. The rollers, the jams, boxes that would be broken and the contents falling out, and getting backed-up are a few.
I was asked a couple of weeks ago if I wanted to go pick-off on the Yellow Belt. It is on the opposite side of the building where I have been working. I will be separating boxes into 6 different trailers. During Peak Season, when I picked-off for the belt I loaded on, I separated boxes into 3 trailers.
I was able to pick-off on Thursday and Friday of last week to get some practice. This week I am on vacation, YEA! Next week I go back to picking-off. I will not get a raise increase, because I had already received it earlier, but it is a change.
