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..

Swesey Christmas Party 2013

Another great Christmas Party!!
Phil & Toni arrived late this last week to help us do a few things to get ready for the party. They arrived Thursday afternoon in their 37’ Motorhome!! OMG that thing looked like a bus coming up the driveway.. Phil was very confident about getting it up and parking it.. I, on the other hand had some well, you know?? reservations! But, hey it was no problem and before you knew it, it was parked and we were ready to settle in..

Toni made some killer Turkey stew (soup) and brought fresh bread.. uummm.. delicious!
Everett’s friend Lee came up on Friday afternoon. Poor guy right after he got here he fell backward onto the concrete and busted his head open! Oh Lord! We got home right after he had done it. So Ev was putting wet cloths on. It wasn’t long and Ev and Lee were off to the ER.. When they got back Lee was bandaged up pretty well..No concussion, Thank God!
Lee of course didn’t sleep well at all that night, so in the mid afternoon before the party he thought he should get home.
He got home safe and sound..
In the meantime we were all working diligently to get all the finally touches done for the party. Kim (my sister) arrived early that afternoon so she was busy helping too.. This was the second year for our redneck bar in the garage with the karaoke machine all set up.. 
Toni set up some tables with their home grown Olive Oil and the beautiful pillow cases she does. She is a quilter, kind of tells you that they are gorgeous! Smile
Guests started arriving about 530pm a little early, but oh well.. Lets get the party going!! Everything looks great!

Party wrapped up about 1’30pm.. We put a few things away before retiring for the a absolutely wonderful evening!!
Sunday morning we all pitched in and got it all cleaned up and relaxed for the day.. Smile

Merry Christmas
