Good morning
Zeria had a lovely day yesterday, and thoroughly enjoyed herself. We had the treasure hunt, and then a swim in the river. And then they just wondered around the property entertaining themselves.
I'm told my youngest niece Ericka's favorite form of entertainment was to catch one of the chickens that was out, throw it up in the air and watch in fly back into the cage.
Somehow considering she's my brothers daughter this just doesn't suprise me. My brother...is full of it to say the least.
And I haven't broken my daughters heart yet by telling her Andria and Ericka are moving to Yakima on the first of August. *sigh* Its gonna be extremely hard on her. She knew it was probably coming, but ugh. I guess we'll be making more frequent trips over the mountains. My brother was fired from his job (unjustly) in April. Its a long story, but the short of it is his boss found out shortly after they hired him how bad my brothers diabetes was, and was unimpressed. So he came up with an extremely lame excuse to get rid of him. The irony in this is my brother had a good job, that he quit to take that one. So, after a couple months of looking he's got a paramedic job in Yakima compliments of my brother and sister. It isn't the fire/paramedic job he wanted. But it does do trauma (which his original job didn't), and its a job, which is the most important thing.
They will be temporarily renting their house out here, and renting a town-house there until they can come up with another plan. Man, my family has always lived an hour away from each other, and suddenly its not that way. Its gonna be a hard adjustment. At least my parents and I are still an hour away (for now.)
We had a nice date night last night. We drove to La Push and ate in the newly reopened restaurant there. The food was excellent and the prices extremely reasonable. We will be going back. Its got a to-die-for view after all.
I have no pictures as I mislayed my camera for most of the day yesterday.
