We are having a good time in KY. We have had a good time getting to know Sierra. We are sad to have to see her go. MRS. Dickerson and I took the baby's to the petting Zoo. Ryleigh liked the hamsters. They had monkeys, Zebras, camels and a lot of other different animals. I wish we would have brought some bread or carrots for all of the animals. Dee and his Dad went to the race track to bet some horses. We head for home bright and early in the morning. That is if Dustin will sleep for us tonight. He has woken up every night that we have been here and wanted to stay up. I don't get it. Ryleigh loves her older sister. She keeps asking where she is. OH yeah! One of the major reasons for the trip this time I took a test for the post office to be a carrier. I don't know how I did. We will see what happens in the next three weeks.

I had my job interview. I was the first to go. I have never had to go in front of a board. They ask you lots of questions about what you can do to help improve there unit. And questions about your job. I did pretty good on all of those. Anyway to make a long story even longer I did not get the job this time around. They are having a couple more openings in December. So I will try again. This time I will know what to expect. Ryleigh and Dustin are up to the usual stuff. Playing and fighting each other. We hope that in the next week we can go up to KY. I have a test that I am signed up for with the US postal service. It is not a full time job it is a substitute position. But it would get my foot in the door to a federal job. Dee is out golfing this morning. He likes to go before it gets to hot. Yesterday He took Ryleigh. He said that she asked a lot of questions. But she is going through that phase. The batteries on my camera died so I have to go get more so Here are a few older pictures.

What a weekend. I am supposed to be enjoying my first weekend off with my family since training. But Thursday morning I went to get a pedicure, and my foot started to hurt that night. I went for a run and I took off my shoe and my toe was swollen. So I took some medication thought it would help. Then went to bed to see if I could sleep it off. That night we made the decision that I needed to go to the ER so I did. The DR. Said that it was infected and I got antibiotics and pain killers. The pain killers have had me sleeping like crazy. I think this is the most I have slept in my life. But it helps with the pain. Monday I have a follow up. They will tell me if I need to take off my toe nail. I will not be a very happy person if they have to take my toe nail. So wish my nail good luck. Ryleigh Dustin Dee and I went for a walk last night the kids got a chance to play at the park. I limped around the block. Yesterday Dee took his tests to see if he was certified to teach. He does not feel very good about the test but we will see what happens.

It has been a while since my last blog, but I have a good excuse. I have been in Wisconsin doing some military training. It was a long week. The weather was great though I think one day it got over 80 degrees. That was one of the only days we had to be in gas masks and chemical suits. That was hot. While I was gone Dee had his share of excitement. Sierra arrived I got to see he for about a second gave her a hug. Then we both went to sleep. Dustin is telling us when he needs to go to the bathroom. Not every time, but he is close enough for a 20 month old. Ryleigh is going through a phase that she feels like she needs to tell us when she has to go. So I guess that she does it so she gets the good girl like Dustin gets the good boy when he goes. We got tickets to go to Nevada in July. But I have to change them because they are making us do a four day training exercise. I applied for an active duty position on the base. It looks good for me because I am the only female that applied. Sorry I have no photos to post I am at work. But I will catch up with my blog later.
