Looking up!

I just lost everything I wrote! Well, Sara and I went to the Canucks game on Thursday, Canucks won 5-3, we were wearing lucky jerseys! Thanks for the great time and laughs, Sara! I love you!

Danna, here is Sara's new blog address http://babyjericho.blogspot.com/2007/01/mish-mash.html. Her and the baby are doing great.

I sprained my ankle at work Sunday night. I left after my shift and was walking to my car, it was slippery outside and I slipped on the pavement rolling my ankle. I was lying on the frozen ground yelling for help, but no one heard me. I called my friend who was working the night shift and she got me a wheelchair and brought me to emerge. Thanks, Debbie! I sat in emerge with my mom til 4am without seeing a Doctor. So we left and I went to a walkin clinic in the morning. It's just a sprain, but my toes and foot are nicely bruised, I'll post some photos, but they are taken with my cell phone so the quality is not good.

On Monday is my first scuba diving lesson, I've always wanted to try scuba and so I decided to now, before I go on a cruise in March. I have two and a half chapters left to read before Monday, will have to crack down on myself to get it done. I bought my own personal gear, mask, fins, boots, snorkel. I had to rinse out the mask with toothpaste to get the film off. I wanted to try out all my gear first before the class, but then I sprained my ankle and also got a tattoo and it needed to heal first. Anyway, so Monday is just a lesson and Tuesday we go in the pool, then we have three more classes and the weekend of the 17th we do four open water ocean dives, I'm very excited, I just have to be very careful not to twist my ankle the wrong way. The cruise I am going on is with a friend of mine who I work with at Langley, she's an RN and a certified scuba diver, so we want to do some dies in the Caribbean. The cruise is to the Southern Caribbean, we leave from Fort Lauderdale and go to PRINCESS CAYS, ST THOMAS, DOMINICA, BARBADOS, ISLA MARGARITA and CURACAO. It's 10 days and we'll be in Curacao for my 28th birthday! I'm really looking forward to it, relaxing, snorkeling, scuba, suntan, swimming, food, woohoo!

Ok and last but not least an update on Rob and I. I just got off the phone with my mom and she said she just told her sisters that Rob and I were not going to work it out, but that has changed. We both have gone back and forth and have been unsure and confused, but our final decision is to go to counseling and try to make it work. I don't want to make a decision and six months down the road regret it because we didn't even try, it's going to take a lot of hard work and commitment from both of us, but I'm hoping that now that we've made this decision we can really stick to it and commit wholeheartedly. Your continued prayers and support are very much appreciated.

Scuba diving sounds like so much fun! and the cruise...I'm jealous... haven't been on a cruise before:) You'll have to let us know how it goes! Take good care of your ankle and I'm glad things are going well for you! (Thanks for the link to baby Jericho...I wanted to see how she and the babe were doing)

Last year my husband and I went to the Caribbean. One of our favorite excursions was a catamaran ride and then snorkelling off the boat at Buck Island. It was an excursion offered at our stop in St. Thomas. There was also a scuba excursion offered at the same destination. We saw some great fish and there is a shipwreck there. I would totally recommend that excursion if you have a chance.
