Time To Catch Up

I know I said I would update the blog a couple weeks ago but what I didn't know was the sniffles and coughing would hit the RackRoom. Ashley and I started coughing and feeling yucky the week before Easter. Ashley went to the Doctor, she had a sinus infection and her blood pressure was way to high. So she is on a the dreaded diet, to see if she can help control the high blood pressure with a little weight loss. The Doctor said the over the counter meds she had taken could cause the blood pressure to elevated some. It's been three weeks and Ashley has lost 10 pounds. Since then we have recovered and been very busy here at The RackRoom, Ashley helped Alyssa & Travis with the Vacation Bible School workshop few weeks back. Rick has been working on the getting the pool ready for summer. Mama, Ashley & I went to Bristol to visit Kerrie & Jerry over spring break, we had a great trip with the Lady in the black box(GPS). The problem is Kerrie lives in Bristol, TN and works in Bristol,VA. and every time you crossed the state line the Lady in the black box would say recalculating and send us a different way than what we were going or wanted to go, it got on our nerves after a while, but we could not get where we wanted to go with out the Lady in the black box. Kerrie is still learning her way around and she was not much help getting us where we needed to be. You drive through neighborhoods to get anywhere and there are very few STOP signs, they have YIELD signs which was hard to get used to. Found a few Boutiques for Ashley, scrapbook stores for Mema. We just had a great time visiting with them and can't wait till I can go back, hope Rick can go next time but with his off days being in the middle of the week and mine on the weekends, just have to wait and see if we can work it out so we can go together.
