The Little Engine That Could

I know I've fallen off the face of the Earth lately but I promise you all I'm alive and fine.

Like rail cars tied together and pulled by a locomotive, my responsibilities have tied together to form a heavy load to pull. And just like The Little Engine That Could I am pulling my load hirer and hirer up the mountain until I eventually reach the crest and coast my way down.

I think I can.

With the help of some angels who have shifted the load and given me a push I know I can.

Life has been incredibly busy homework, VA visits, and some other mucky things. But never fear, I'm still finding time to have some fun. Recently I joined J.R. on a trip to Vail, Colorado for some lessons in snowboarding. I fell a ton, laughed a lot, and we both had a fantastic time. More pictures and writing about this will happen... someday.

Hey Josie, we are doing some carpet cleaning at the Fisher House and I was thinking about who was in what room and for some reason (not that you had dirty carpets) I thought of you. I also saw a fishing show- so that might have put you guys in my thoguhts. I hope all is well. If you get a chance e-mail me kate.deyermond@us.army.mil. I am glad to see that life on the other side is nice- but i miss you!
best, Kate
