July 2, 1981

Well, I guess it's about time I wrote some more!  So much has happened.  Time flies by so fast.  At the end of March, we bought us a car for $1500.00. (blue Celica) We were able to pay cash thanks to my working.  Amanda had a big birthday party on the 9th of April, and everyone came and had cake and ice cream. (I made her a cake in the shape of a rabbit) She is growing like a weed.  She is now almost 15 months.  At the end of April,  Diane quit tending and mom went back to work.  Also, Amanda got sick with Bronchitis, and I started getting very bad headaches.  Well needless to say, I quit work (furloughed)  May 15th.  Since then everything's been quite well, except Amanda has had diarrhea for about 3 weeks.  Next week she's going in for her 15 month check-up, and she will get her last shots.  On June 9, 10, 11, Amanda and I left for Lava Hot Springs for a vacation  with mom and dad and my family.  We had a good time, but, I'll never leave Roger like that again.  We missed each other too much. (He couldn't come because he had to work)  Last week we bought us a camper, and today (Thursday), were going with Linda & Bruce & family up Hardscrabble Canyon for the 4th of July weekend.  Roger has been working allot of overtime lately and 12 to 14 hour days are not uncommon.  He really hates his shift, and is hoping that in the next month he can get on straight nights.  I am doing fine.  I've only gained to 132 pounds in 6 months of pregnancy.  This baby is loved by all of us, but hardly ever noticed.  I have kept really busy this summer.  I have got a nice tan.  Amanda & I go to Como quite a bit.  She LOVES the water.  She's like a little fish.
