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..

Sonora Weekend Quick Books Training (Moose)

Just getting home on Thursday night from our camping trip in Northern CA., needed to get packed up and leaving for Sonora Friday morning (May 30th) at 9:30am for Quick Books training for the Moose.
The GPS took us the scenic route, so the drive was about 4 and 1/2 hours.. Smile Tina was driving, Pam in the passenger seat and me in the back..
We drove pretty much straight to Sonora to the hotel, Inn of California. Nice place, clean, did have some issues with the internet and the toilet handle.. yep toilet handle..fell off, then got put on so we had to flush “up” instead of down.. oh well..We checked in our hotel, then we all decided to go to the Black Oak Casino to try our luck as well as to eat lunch.. we were starving by now.. Smile Lunch was ?? ok.. gambling wasn’t the best, so we didn’t stay long. Then we went over to the Moose met the bartender Barbara. Everyone was so nice..

Had a few drinks then back to the room (we kind of checked out that there was lots of shopping locally too). We had eaten lunch so late that none of us really wanted dinner.
We did stop at the local “Save Mart” to get some snacks and liquor.. As you see from the photos below, we were having fun shopping.. Smile check out the basket sign “Customer in Training”.. oh we were just having fun!!

We had fun sitting out on the walk way at the hotel.. Gorgeous evening.. We didn’t stay up late with the anticipation of our class in the morning about 8am! YICKS! I don’t think any of us really slept well.. With 3 women sleeping in the same room there was always someone up going potty.. and being in a strange bed..? You get the picture,,
We managed to get through the class that day.. We didn’t get done that day till about 5pm.. LONG DAY!
We went in and had a maybe 2/3  drink at the bar in them Moose.. Awe but then we decided to eat at Gus’ steak house.. Cheap dinner.. and it tasted pretty good too..And back to the hotel..

Oh Sunday’s day was early too.. We got to break for breakfast about 930am for about 1/2.. Great breakfast the Moose provided us.. uummm delicious!! Then back to class.. This was one long ass day! Heck I was nodding off several times.. Way too much information to try and comprehend in 2 days! But we did it.. Smile We were let out of class about 3pm that day.. So we didn’t even stop to have a cocktail at the bar in the Moose.. We went straight shopping!! Smile and we nearly shopped till we dropped.. What fun we all had..
That Sunday evening we sat out on the walk again, with feet up..
Picture is named “FEET”.. appropriate I believe..Smile

Had a couple of cocktails on the walkway as well as we ordered pizza.. awe, so nice to relax..

We started for home about 830am on Monday morning.. We stopped at Red Robin had a great lunch! Nice place (Woodland) and then we did a little shopping at Costco.. We had to be conservative due to we were running out of room in the car for storage.. Smile
It was a fun weekend with the girls!! Smile
