Seasonal affective disorder (also called SAD) is a type of depression that follows the seasons. The most common type of SAD is called winter depression. It usually begins in late fall or early winter and normal mood returns in summer. A less common type of SAD, known as summer depression, usually begins in the late spring or early summer. SAD may be related to changes in the amount of daylight you get. (Just so you all know - John wrote this, not Becky)

Sleeping Beauty

I had a wonderful time on Saturday. I took Jackie & Summer; Ashley; Jamie & Lucy; Stefanie & Audree and Angela & her niece Madison to the Hale Theater in Gilbert to see a production of Sleeping Beauty. We had a great time! The girls all got princess crowns. The little girls wore their princess dresses. Lucy (who is 2) had a hard time sitting still before the show started, but once it got underway - she loved it! I only wish I had orange hair like one of the fairies :)

This is a picture of Josh & Jackie's kids praying for Grandpa while he was at the Emergency Room - so precious


On February 5th, John arrived home from work on his motorcycle. Kimber was here visiting so her car was in the driveway alongside of mine. John thought he could fit between the two cars, but was horribly mistaken. His left foot got caught in the wheel well of my car and he ultimately broke his foot. He some how made it to the house and we got him in a chair. We took off his shoe and put his foot in a bucket of ice water while I went across the street to get the neighbor to help me get John in to the car for our adventure to the ER. He actually lost consciousness four times before we got in the car. He turned grayish-green and was speaking non-sense. He swelled up pretty good. It turns out that he has a small fracture on the top of his foot, but he also messed up tendons and other stuff. He loves his crutches!!






So - I had a great morning! I went to the Desert Botanical Gardens today and saw the Chihuly Exhibit. It was really amazing. Thanks Sunny, Tammy, Ariel and Skylar for inviting me to come along!
