Okay....here's the latest scoop...

Clint is for sure coming home...yippee! He will be here Friday!!!!!! YOWZA! :)

Dareck got a job! He is a dishwasher at Cosmo's diner. He started last night. He is so cool! :)
He is doing well......trying to finish his Junior year....he still has some work to do.....

I will be graduating in a mere 11 days....HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!! I am beyond excited, happy, nervous, scared.....I have started applying to jobs.....eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek! With my graduation comes visits from friends and family! My wonderful friend, Suzanna Rosana Banana is coming allllllllllll the way from OK to see me; My bestest friend, Chandra is coming from NC and now.....yes, it is true..............MY MOMA is coming to see me GRADUATE! More amazing than that is that it was my DAD's suggestion! THANKS POP! You are THE best Daddy ever! I am so excited to see my peeps. Denita, Jen, and Jaci..will not be the same without you girls. Hope you can come.

Randy graduates April 27th in Great Lakes, ILL. I have talked to him. yahoo! He is doing GREAT! He will have to ship out within two hours after Graduation to go to CA. I am not too happy about that, but very excited for him as I know he is anxious to get to CA. and get into BUDS. Me, Dareck, and Chandra are still planning to go see him graduate and I will soak up every moment I have with my sweet Randy J. And you KNOW I will post pics ASAP!

Sadly, my sweet Charlie Bell has taken a turn for the worse and I am not quite sure how much time he has left with us. If he does not go on his own, I might be forced to help him. I appreciate everyone's prayers and support. We still need them so keep them coming. Life will not be the same without him here with me. I love him so much. And Lady Bug will surely miss her man. She is doing great, by the way!

I better get going. Even though I just have ELEVEN days left of school....I have lots of homework to do!!!

Take care. Hope this finds you all well and HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! ENJOY the ADVENTURE! God Bless and Happy Easter week.

Love, Kat & Crew ;)

ps...thanks to all of you who have written Randy. He really appreciates it and so does his Moma!! :)

Hello everyone!

Just wanted to update you on a few things....

I finally got a REAL letter from Randy. He is doing well. He is adjusting to life as a BOOTER! How nastalgic it was to receive a letter from my son on the same paper I used to get letters from his Dad on...18 years ago! I cannot believe he is 20, and in boot camp! His address has changed tho, so please make a note of it: Everything is the same except the 3401 Sailor Drive is now 3405 Sailor Drive. He should be graduating April 27th so I am counting the days till I can see my boy again....39 days in case you were wondering!! ;)

Clint is doing great in Kansas. He SHOULD be getting to come home for Easter.....we are praying they allow the leave. If that is the case then we have 18 days till we can be together again...woohoo!

Dareck is fabulous! : ) He was diagnosed with Narcolepsy so we are making adjustments with medications trying to find what works best for him. He has not found a job yet but hopes to soon. He and I went riding on the 4wheeler and dirt bike yesterday...ALL ALONE...we had a blast and did very well for ourselves! Who needs Clint and Randy??? (we do!) But now we know we can manage them on our own. Dareck had his first wipe out.....it was right in front of me and it scared me to death, but he survived it without any broken bones. He is a little sore today but he says it was worth it. It was sleeting (yes we were riding in the sleet) tho so the sharp corner he took was a little slippery. We had a great weekend together...we went to the movies, to dinner, shopping, riding, watched movies...thanks for taking such good care of your ole Maja, Baby Boy! :) He is finishing up his JUNIOR year..I cannot imagine HIM graduating NEXT year...oh my...I might have to be committed!

I will be GRADUATING in a wee 24 days!!!!!!!!! I cannot believe it! April 12th is the BIG DAY! So far, Dareck, Chandra and Suzanna are coming...my Mom MAY come, not sure yet. Clint will just miss it, as will Randy, but they will be with me in spirit. :>)

Pugs are super. Precious as ever....I love those little guys!

Hope this finds you all well and happy! :) Love to each of you. Thanks for all of your prayers. Keep them up! We always need them. And thanks for the encouragement, the lunches, the pj parties, the calls and cards, the goodies, the margaritas, the visits.....not only for me and Dareck, but for Clint and Randy as well. It means so much to all of us. We appreciate your kindness and treasure your friendship and love.

God Bless,

Kathy (& the rest of the Waggonhead Crew).

CJ and Randy.....WE MISS YOU! HURRY HOME!
