December

In case anyone is wondering we are still alive. I have been really bad at updating lately due to many reasons but mostly I guess I haven't felt like sitting infront of the computer much this last month. I've just been enjoying a beautiful start to winter.

And if anyone hasn't heard Theresa and I had a miscarrige around a couple weeks ago. It was painful both mentally and physically, especially for Theresa who spent quite a bit of time in the ER. We both want to thank our families and friends for their thoughts, prayers and kind words. It has made us stronger and there will be another opportunity. Theresa had a doctor appointment last week and everything checked out fine and we are happy for that.

Anyway, things have been steady for us. I've been working and spending alot of time in the woods which has been great. We have about 12-20" of snow depending on where you are. Temps have been remaining below freezing and usually in the teens. When you work in the woods in the winter cool temps are better otherwise it gets extremely slippery and very wet which makes you feel colder. We haven't had to break out the snowshoes yet in the area where we have been working but it is close to that time. Lakes are frozen over but with the heavy snows they are pretty slushy.

Theresa is laid off still and hanging out around the house trying to find stuff to do. She is still recovering and just taking it easy, which is hard for her.

We are getting ready for Christmas and it looks like we will be spending about 10 days down in the cities. That's about all for now, I'll try and update again soon. If not, Merry Christmas and Happy New Years.....
