Feeling Blessed and Refreshed

We are feeling very blessed to have such  great family and good friends.  We are also feeling very blessed by all we meet here in Hawaii, people are very friendly and helpful.  The VA Hospital and Tripler Medical Center have been wonderful and the care here is night and day from Texas and Las Vegas.  We haven't had any care really for two years with the exception of what little care we got in Oregon, which also was good.  They are very efficient here and on the ball.  They actually remember you from visit to visit and call to check up.  Our primary Doc's put in specialty consults and we have appointments all scheduled for neurology, cardiology, pulmonology, optical, podiatry, endoctural and nuclear medicine etc... Busy thru July and part of August, but getting it all done.  Our diabetic medications were changed as our diabetes is progressed after so many years that oral medication doesn't work any more to control it so insulin it is but good news is they use the pens here (piece of cake).  Getting on track.  Our car came this week on Monday  the 15th, and also our two boxes (one had out TV that were lost for three weeks came yesterday the 18th, only two days after we bought another TV.   Right!!!  Started doing Water Aerobics here in our Condo Bldg. which is fun and plus meeting people who live here.  Been working on a Web Site for Andrew as he is starting a small business here in Waikiki/Honolulu downtown area.  there are a lot of Condo's and older people plus people who work long hours with little time to do things. Check it out http://grocerydeliveryandhomerepairs.webs.com/  Still working out some of the details.  Plus I transferred my ministry license to Hawaii so I can perform marriages, baptism etc..... Here in Hawaii. Marriage falls under State rather than County Clerk here.  Our house is starting to look like somebody lives here now, we have gotten some furniture and needed items.  Dogs are great adapting to city life same as us, it is nice living in the center of things and having easy access.  Found a good Thai restaurant right next to our building -- which might not be a good thing!  Here are some pictures of our place and how it is coming along, we will take camera on our next walk and try to get some pic's around the hood.

Closing Out the Year

     We are glad indeed to be at the end of 2015.  not one of our better years for sure.  We just wondered aimlessly this past year making one bad decision after another.  It seems since we had to leave Las Vegas when Andrew became sick we have been lost.  Our life was completely changed in a 6-8 month period very dramatically. It was very overwhelming for us and we had made good friendships and lasting bonds with people there in our community.  That was suppose to be our forever home.  Since leaving Vegas we have been to California, Oregon, Corpus Christie TX, Hawaii, and back to Oregon again. I am almost certain that we are home in Oregon to stay.  We may go for a few months in winter someplace but plan to stay here. We simply don't have the energy or desire to go again. At any rate we hope this next year graces us with stability and helps us to find our perfect spot here on the Oregon Coast to land.  We are looking to buy something here.  We have a couple things we are consideri

Summer Season

     Well we are off to a great summer here on the Oregon Coast! It has been a busy month for us as we moved from Ft. Stevens south to Tillamook county Park.  We have been enjoying the change and the park here, and an opportunity presented itself for us to manage another RV park close by also in Tillamook ( Wilson River RV Park ).  The park came under new ownership and he was given our names as somebody who could be his managers of the park.  We met with him last week and accepted the position.  The park has been neglected for the last year as it was being held by the bank and a property management company was overseeing the park.  Nothing a little elbow grease and few repairs can't fix.  It is a prime location for fishing and hunting as it sits right on the river, and of course there is all the attractions of the coast and Tillamook here as well.  We are excited for the challenge of this new adventure. We will miss our friends at the county park but will be close still to BBQ and

Our Plans are like Jello Sometimes it just doesn't set!

 We had a change of plans, and came to California where we decided to sell the motor home.  We didn't expect it to sell in two days time.  We arrived to San Clemente on the 1st of December and sold motor home on 3rd.  We rented an apartment in the downtown (1 block over from Main Street Del Mar) area close to the beach.  We had a great holiday with some of the family and Shawn was home also.  We are enjoying being close to family and our new great grand baby is absolutely adorable.  She is the happiest baby I've ever seen.  We have gotten all our medical appointments under way and scheduled and it feels good to be in one place settled again.  We're enjoying walking the beach everyday and all the little shops and restaurants.  Don't miss the motor home it was a lot of stress for us and after Drew's stroke was just too much to handle.  We did enjoy our trips through the summer and made good use of it.  So now we are in San Clemente for at least a year we signed a leas
