Sleep Study... Sleep Study... Sleep Study...

Here is Soybean at his sleep study. Tarah sent this picture from her phone so technically this is her picture but I just couldn't help myself. Words can not tell you out there in blog land how much this little angel has melted my heart. They left around 9:30 ish and it was so quiet. I don't know how I am going to do it when they buy a home and take my little sweet angel away from me. (I know I sound a little psycho) He brings such a harmonious energy and spirit into this house I can almost imagine what it would be like to be in heaven.

Oh and as for the results of mine??? Still waiting. I wished I would of taken pictures it was so funny I just sat and giggled, I'm sure the Technician didn't see any humor as he was sticking probe like things in my head and arms and legs, on my face and jaws. Stuck a thing in my nose to measure your oxygen output. I looked like a science experiment. I just kept flashing back to Young Frankenstein.

I am sure he wanted to El ca bong me to shut me up from giggling. Then he left and shut out the light and then I heard from the heavens. "Okay Robbin, blink you eyes 5 times". What the heck, I'm thinking. Silence precedes and then once more, "blink your eyes 5 times please". So I look around the room to find the camera while of course blinking. I'm a little creeped out at this point, then I had to do other exercises like; look left, look right, look up, look down, etc. etc. etc.

How can someone sleep knowing that some stranger is watching them? How can someone

sleep knowing you are not in you bed? In your covers? In a smelly old

building with a next door neighbor doing the same thing? With no private bathroom.

I felt like I was in a hostel only I wasn't in Europe, I was in Murray, Utah. Dang! He went over

the buzzer rule of course and I rang it (twice) to go to the bathroom down the hall. I knew I shouldn't have drank that extra water, what the heck was I thinking and that can of Diet Coke.

He was a nice Dude Technician, very patient unhooking me each time I went to the bathroom.

Then I tried the "go to you special place" meditation, except I don't have a special place. Everyone in the world has one but me, so then I tried some other meditation like thinking of a song, but then I couldn't remember the words. I was not sleeping. Hummm! What next? I tried a breathing technique but that just made me dizzy. Oh and to make matters worse I was suppose to sleep on my back which I am a side sleeper. I finally started getting sleepy and I believe I feel asleep. Then promptly I heard him telling my neighbor it was time to get up.

Man they want you out of there as quickly as possibly, so 5:30 we were up and out the door.

So who knows if I even got REM sleep. Oh well I guess we shall know soon.

Been Awhile

Okay so it has been awhile since I have been on here and so I say to you all, so sorry... I will be catching you all up starting with this new year, but for now I will just do a little entry letting you know that tonight I am going at 9:30 to do a sleep study.

Yes, you heard me a lovely sleep study to see if I have sleep apnea and If I do? well I don't know how this will work because I can't handle anything put up to my face.

The dentist would like to knock me out with the hammer just to give me the gas stuff, I have to take anxiety meds just to go to him. With all my C-sections, they realized they had to put me out or sedate me first before I could let them but the oxygen mask on. I would go absolutely wacko if they tried to put it on, I thought I was suffocating so needless to say I am having a teny little tiny panic attack just thinking about it.

Isn't it interesting what you learn about someone.

Okay, I am signing off and I will let you know how it went. Hopefully I can sleep so they will be able to get an accurate study.

bye bye for now.....

peace out!

I am updating.... Sorry, Technical Difficulties

OH MAN I HAVEN'T UPDATED FOREVER

WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN???

Well, I will do a quick run through.

Megan Graduated. Got her braces off. Made Salt Lake Community College Dance Company and got a Liberal Arts Scholarship. We are so proud of you Meggie-Jean

Had a wonderful Fathers Day, we had a BBQ and played some games.

Went to Park City and had fun, but forgot to take the camera.

Kyle had a birthday, it was great. Forgot the camera.

Went to the No Doubt concert and me and my sister Lisa got a little carried away.

ROCK ON!!!

We had to eat at the Olive Garden.

Had a Berry Family Reunion. What is summer without a Family Reunion?

Mediterannean Cruise

HERE ARE SOME PICTURES FROM MY TRIP IT WAS FABULOUS.



The people in Turkey were so sweet. I wanted to buy things from every one of them. They love Americans. They are a beautiful people. We felt their warmth and friendliness.

The Croatians were wonderful as well. Reminded me like Midway or Heber Valley. We ate fresh figs and they were actually good. Had a traditional meal.

Greece was wonderful, we went to Santorini and Corfu - Santorini is the Volcano Island and desert like whereas Corfu is more tropical. We had a spectacular Greek meal on Corfu and the Baklava was mouth watering. Both had it own beauty I will have to find photos of Corfu.

The Italian I found were not nice people. That is all I will say about them. . .

Venice was beautiful. One day I will take my lover back there. He was serving our country while I was enjoying another.

This is St. Marks Square in Venice And of course the famous Gondola ride down the canal

Here we are looking down the Rialto Bridge and of course here is the city of Venice

This is Kusadisa, Turkey - Ephesus
We are standing in front of Roman ruins that are as old as 5 AD and older. Words can not describe the emotions that went through me

Baptistery at Mary's House (the mother or Jesus)

Santorini, Greece - For anyone that read Sisterhood of the Traveling pants or saw the

movie this should look familiar

Dubrovnik, Croatia - Beautiful country and wonderful people. Natalie and Mark, me and

my mom

I was practicing a Titanic event. Thank goodness we didn't have one

Me and my mom on the sail away

Where will our next venture take us. . . . .?

A PICTURE IS WORTH A 1000 WORDS

It was Megan's last Dance Concert and it was an emotional time for all of us. I remember back when I was hoping and praying that she would make Copperhills Dance Company when she was trying out. I know she was good and loved to dance. She was so motivated and had a passion for dancing.




Her Aunt Shari Woolsey

The Seniors honoring the team member

Isabella and my Sister and Mom, bless you for coming to all her concerts

A beautiful piece she choreographed



Me and my dancing Angel

MI FAMILIA, OUR SUPPORT SYSTEM WE LOVE YOU!

Anyone that knows her can testify to that. She can't go anywhere without breaking into a jig. We will be in Target, or a Theatre, restaurant, a Funeral anywhere you name it she will break into a dance and Yes, even at church down the hall as we are getting ready to go into sacrament meeting.

That is our Meggie. She has been devoted to dance, who else would be crazy enough to get up every morning at 5:30 sometimes earlier for three years to pound their body for 3 hours in the morning and sometimes 3 hours after school? Not a complaint but a big ol' smile on their face?

She was so deathly shy as a little girl and her older sister Tarah took dance from a place called Dance by Dee which taught interpretive dance. This was the perfect Dance class I was looking for. It was non-competitive and taught them dance skills, they didn't have to get all dressed up and look like 25 year old beauty pageant queens and feel massive pressure competing. So Megan wanted to take dance as well and that started her JOURNEY. My little shy girl wasn't shy anymore. . .

We owe allot to them and of course to Copperhills Dance Company. . .

We owe allot to our Family and Friends who have supported Megan. My Family came to every one of her performances throughout the years. She wishes to thank everyone for the support they have given her. She is so blessed to be loved by so many. Thank you.
