This Week

It has been a busy week. The peach tree is blooming...Love this time of year. Lots of patients this week which are a good thing! I love my patients. I actually had someone who is traveling to the Dominican Republic and Haiti so I was able to share some things with him about the D.R. Yesterday was Rotary and we had a speaker from Make-A-Wish Foundation, which actually was founded in Phoenix. What a great organization! I am busy planning a fundraiser for our club, a Bowl-A-Thon. Will keep you posted on that! Today is Friday and I am meeting my friend Pat for lunch. Pat & I went to High School together. Later this afternoon, I am meeting Julie and we are going to see "Twilight". Should be a really fun day.

Dominican Republic Feb 2009

Just returned from a wonderful 8 day stay in the Dominican Republic where Julie was a bridesmaid and I was a guest at Jessi's wedding. Jessi was Julie's roommate at Grand Canyon University and I became Jessi's #2 Mom. I was totally treated like one of the family. We shared a house with Jessi's Mom and Dad and Grandma & Grandpa and got to participate in the wedding preparations. We visited the school where Jessi is a nurse and got to have the food that the children had. I have to say that when I saw what the kids were eating, I thought "boy I am glad we are not eating here!" But low and behold, we got to have lunch there too and I have to admit, it was pretty good. I will post some pictures to help describe the beauty of that country and also the beautiful bride and wedding.
