Since there is rarely anyone following me on my blog, the Clyde Tigner and Family facebook page may become my new blog for our family members and friends.
With the arrival of Carolyn's two daughters into our home at the end of June, we have been exceptionally busy trying to get along around here and manage our family's activities better. While this may seem simple to some, it has become very difficult at times. With Gabriel around, we are certainly not ever bored!
We were pleasantly blessed with a visit from Faye, Karen, Sonny, and Kaylee from Sacramento at the beginning of July. While we could not provide them with enough activities because of our work schedules, we enjoyed their company while they were here. We went to Yellowstone, Big Judd's, and Reed's Dairy and Sonny enjoyed the Tautphus Park skateboard park. I took Karen to Love at First Bite and everyone to Great Harvest Bread.
We couldn't change the hot weather and the kids were getting bored and wanting to go back home to Sacramento, so they left about two days early.
We hope the next time they come, our home will be less crowded. I honestly don't know how anyone can stand living or staying in a home of this size containing 11 or more people, and with the situation we presently have can stand it for very long at all. But we were hoping they would stay for the full amount of time they had allotted.
I was sad to see them leave us early, but glad to have them with us. We had more exciting things planned, but we just couldn't make it happen this time.
On a positive note, both of my eyes had cataracts removed and toric lenses implanted prior to July, and I now am driving around, for the first time in my life, without glasses - legally!
Unfortunately we are trying to figure out what to do about some new glasses. I have worn glasses since I was 6 years of age. Now here I am always feeling like something is missing and wanting to put on glasses before I go out. But the price of new glasses is still very high - even with what Medicare allows - which is not very much, of course.
Well, I will see how this works out and whether I have better vision coverage than I had thought. We will go from there and hope I can get comfortable again. The thought of having to carry around reading glasses is scary - especially since I never could carry sunglasses around to attache to my glasses. I would always lose them in short order.
Claudia and I are both working. At this point in time Claudia is making more money than I am and working more hours to do that. We are both professional therapists, and she is definitely very good with what she does with kids with developmental disabilities.
Well, everyone please take care of yourselves and remember to find us on our facebook page: Clyde Tigner and Family
