Awards and other things

Got the word that my operation was a success and I'm cancer free now. Yea! Now I can think about getting my other heart artery cleared out. Plan to wait until fall if that is all right with my doctors.

My keyboard quit a couple of days ago. There is a pop up on my desktop the lets me type letters using my mouse. So wasn't totally off the computer. I bought a kb yesterday. Not all that happy with it. I really liked the one I had but it was really old...a lot older than my computer.

Hailey got an award yesterday evening for her flower class...it is an ROP class...which means Regional Occupational Program...and is a state program run through the highschools to teach young people skills that can lead to careers in the work place. The Grossmont High School District held the award ceremony for ROP students district wide that were considered the best in their classes. There are 12 High Schools in the district. We met Hailey's teacher and she is a super nice person. She sat at our table. Hailey's class works on flower arrangements for outside projects like charity events and weddings and funerals too. That gives them more flowers to work with and experience with doing commercial work. They made the flower arrangements for the tables at the awards. She got to take home the flowers from our table...not the ones she did in class though.

Good news all around. Is Hailey planning to get a job doing flower arrangements when she graduates high school?

Keyboards all feel different. I think after you use the new one for a short time, you'll like it better.
