Ok It's been a while!

Seriously now...I know that it's been FOREVER since I've written on here. The summer flew by so fast and now I'm getting ready for winter. It doesn't seem possible November 1st is Saturday!!!!

Life has been very busy for me this year. Some days a little too busy even for me! The dance hall is going well and we're always trying to come up with new ideas to make it grow more. The Maine Country Music Hall of Fame is now in the lower level of the Spur. There are wonderful displays of Maine's own country music legends. Dad was just inducted as the newest Hall of Fame member this summer.

The banquet hall was very busy this summer with weddings. Hopefully it'll be even busier next year. We've got several bookings for next year already...hopefully this is a good sign!

The hockey world is still the same. Some days it doesn't seem like I can ever get the work done that needs to be done, but somehow I manage to pull things together at the last minute! Our old coach, Clem was in town a couple of weeks ago. It was so great to talk with him and catch up. He is a wonderful man and I have the utmost respect for him. He's coaching in Rimouski, Canada now. He was our coach for three years and took our team all the way to the Memorial Cup. It was great experience and he taught us all a lot.

The family is doing really well. It's so great to have my sister back home. The boys love running all over the place, and it's so fun to see everyone all together. This Christmas Buster and his wife Mandy will be coming home for Christmas. I believe this is the first Christmas in five years that we'll all be together. I'm looking forward to that!!

Courtney is doing great with her diabetes. That kid amazes me, seriously! She was bummed the other night because she was going to have a substitute nurse at school. She said that this nurse calls her mom whenever they take her blood sugar....even if it's good. I guess they took it one time and it was like 140 or something and the nurse said, "I better call your mom and tell her." Courtney said, "It's 140....it's fine....that's a good number." She knows so much about it and tells us when she's feeling low, etc. She's getting ready to get the pump which will help her I'm sure. No more needles, which will be a blessing. I'm just so impressed with her and her patience with this terrible disease. Hopefully they'll find a cure for this someday!!!

Well, hopefully I won't wait another 6 months to post something! haha!
