Update: March 6th, 2016.
After a very very long year of learning to live a new life with my most recent handicap. I am getting movement in my arm!! :) It started the end of August and has been progressing, slowly. My issues with paranioia and depression are also getting better. I am confident that things will continue to progress. However, loosing a whole YEAR of my life is devastating to say the least. However, keeping a positive attitude for the most part has been a huge challenge, but I do it. I am grateful to all my family and friends that have been so encouraging and helpful. Thank you..

Weekend with family/friends in Petaluma

Rick was out on the lake fishing first thing Friday morning! Like the “crack” of dawn, 6 am!!! dang.. He was all over the place out there, we could see him from the deck going from place to place, trying to catch that “BIG” one! However seems like he was catching the “LITTLE” ones.. At least he didn’t get skunked.
Rick got in and Ev went down to get Rick and the boat.. They got the boat put away and Rick packed up and headed down to Petaluma. He had made arrangements to stay with our sister Kim for 2 nights. His first evening was spent with some long time friends Phil & Toni Brooks.
On Saturday night John & Kim hosted the family and some friends over for bb-q.. John is a great cook. He cooked a New York strip, with twice baked potatoes, broccoli w/cheese and corn on the cob! Everyone pitched in for hors d'oeuvres, lot and lots!! Probably didn’t even need dinner!
It was wonderful to visit with everyone. Nice to see faces that we hadn’t seen for awhile and catch up.
Sunday Morning we were invited over for omelets at Kim’s and Rick was making the omelets and Kim was doing everything else. We arrived about 9am.. Phil & Toni had already arrived, Lindsy and Chris also joined us..
Our omelets were made a different way than I had ever made them. Rick & Kim had cut up all the ingredients.. You know onion, pepper, tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese.. Rick was whipping up a couple of eggs in a cup and then each one of us had a small zip lock bag with our name on it. We were instructed to fill our zip locks with what we wanted in our omelets and then the egg went in on top, we got as much “air” out of the bag as possible, then tossed the bag into a pot of boiling water for about 15 minutes!! OMG! What a fantastic omelet that was!! Never had one like that before.. It was so cool. We also had bagels, fresh fruit, some champagne/oj for mimosas.. Everyone enjoyed their breakfast.. Lindsy, Chris and Colin headed for the “A”s” game.. We finished up said our good byes and we headed home..
Rick followed us till he got bored.. then he zoooomed by us and headed home.. We met at the house then headed for Robinsons Rancheria for a little “gamble” time.. Rick broke even and Ev & I made $172 on the dollar machine and out the door we went!! We had discussed that we would eat dinner in Lakeport at “TJ’s”, opened about 2 years ago.. It is decent and the atmosphere is pretty nice too.. especially for Lake County.. Smile We had  nice dinner and a few drinks.. Then headed home for a relaxing evening..
