New from the Heringers
Well this year has been to say the least unusual, a new high for gas prices and then a record drop in gas prices. Here in Kentucky the gas situation has improved in the last few weeks.
(This is Lady right after we got her)
Tom’s health has been up and down this year, between a sprained ankle and diabetes he has had enough. Cyndi was diagnosed with a cyst on her spine, but the doctor does not want to operate because it could cause more problems then it would help. Also it is thought that the cyst would go away on its own, which we think it did, although she is still sleeping in a recliner.
We have adopted a new dog to replace our much loved “Baby”, her name is Lady Girl and she is a handful. We got her when she was three months old and she is now six months. She looks a lot like one of the dogs in Homeward Bound, the one that Michael J. Fox provided the voice over for.
We have had very few real hot days this summer, but were made up for by being on the humid side.
Hurricane Hanna hit the Florida area where Cyndi’s aunt lives, but everything turned out OK!
(This is a recent picture of Lady)
Larry is having “teen” problems it seems that they are in such a big hurry to grow up, that they forget to enjoy the moment of being young. Please keep him and his family in prayer.
Samantha is back in school and spent her birthday this year with Tim in San Diego, CA.
Peter is still working for Kroger’s and notices that the teens who are working with him have no pride in the quality of their work.
If you have any news, pictures or articles to submit please let us know. This includes birth announcements, weddings and anniversaries.
Hopefully we will be able to get back to you next month until then God Bless!

Vacations? Staying at home
 It has been a couple of months since we sent a newsletter, but we have been sick off and on for the last 6 weeks or so. Most of us are planning stay at home vacations this year. We now actually shop for gas for the car, the way we do for the grocery store. A few cents really is a big thing now. Here this week gas is right around $3.87, which is a little low from what it was. Found this neat little gas price website. This makes planning any driving a mater of good planning and a lot of prayer. It also makes the distances seem so much farther away. We do enjoy hearing from all of our friends and family even if it is via the internet.
What Is New?
We have changed the look of the newsletter since our last edition. We have also changed the look of the website. If you have not visited in a while please take a look.
Also do not forget to pay a visit to our family tree site at this point many of you are already registered or have received an invitation. You can also down load the family tree maker at this site. If you email me I will send a zip that contains the gedcom file information that I have up to this time. Make any changes and email it back to me. I will then merge it to the existing information.

Happening this month
 Cyndi and I have been doing as well as can be expected. Of course there are little things like Cynd's back problems coming back. So far she has been unable to take the MRI that is necessary to diagnose the problem. The first time on the table she was experiencing back pain so bad that she was unable to continue with the test. We are hoping that she will be able to have the MRI done later this week, this one is done standing. Hopefully it will not take 30 minutes. If it does then they will have to put her in the hospital where they can sedate her. The doctor thinks that she might be having another ruptured disk, we hope that they are wrong. The Osteo Arthritis in her hands are still flaring up on occassion. This last time she got by it without having to use steriods. The RSD in her legs and feet is still an issue, it is a long term problem.
Tom still has kidney stones, apparently they are not real big and are not causing anthing more then just some discomfort. He is still doing websites both for our family and for the church. He also has another ministry site, that he spends some time working on. This along with numerious posts to his WordPress blogs.
Peter is still busy at work (he works for Kroeger). Those of you in California will know it better as Foods Co and Ralph's. The mother company is Kroegers. He is real nice to have around when we need something heavy picked up.
Sam and Tim are still busy with work and school in Virginia
Larry and April are doing well as is the case with all the kids.
Tommy is still living in California.
Latest Events
We have been taking pictures around the Lexington area to share on the website, be watching for this. We also have a new type of picture gallery on the website. It is in folders and you will need to click on them to see what is inside the folders. We are adding to these all the time, so keep coming back. If you know of any pictures that you would like to see, please ask us. It is possible that we have pictures that some of you have not seen.
Cyndi's family is having a reunion in May.

Some very interesting things have happened since our last newsletter. Tom has been diagnosed with kidney stones. Now I know why dad seemed to be in such excruciating pain. The CAT scan found them on both sides. Now not only do I have to limit my intake of fat and sugar, but calcium as well. This diet sucks all the good things I use to like I can not have. This leaves only the things that I do not like. I have the letter that dad sent to all of us in 1973 or 74.
Cyndi is still experiencing a lot of pain, but this time it is in her hands. The last flare up of arthritis was so bad that any movement of her hand hurt. The doctor put her on steriods and it seemed to help, but you can not take them all the time. It seems that most of her problems have to do with nerves. We are looking into some way that we can have an excersize program.
Peter is looking forward to an oppurtunity to become a department manager in his store. The man that is the manager of the dairy section is going into the store management program. Peter found out that when he came back to the store, he and the man that got the grocery managers job were the only ones to apply.
Samanthas husband Tim is traveling a lot. Visit times website sometime: http://web.mac.com/eodtim69/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html he gets around a lot.
Larry and April are busy with kids and work
Tommy is doing well in California. Any of you when you are in the area can call on him.

For those who are not aware, Lexington, KY is the horse capitol of the world. You do not have to go very far out of town to find horses. Keenland is one of if not the largest of the horse auction locations in the state, if not in the whole country. Celebrities come here to by thourough breeds. Man O War is buried here and we actually have a cemetary for horses. The amount of money that flows through here during September, during auction time, of every year is unbelievable. We live right down the street from one of the horse van operations in the city of Lexington.
Tommy is still living with his mom in California and working full time.Samantha's husband Tim is out of the military and working in the private sector. We are real glad to have him back and out of harms way. His new job has him traveling a lot. Sam is looking forward to going to school full time this coming April.
Larry and his wife April are still living in Florida and they have a new baby our 6th grand child. Asline Anastasia Heringer is such a long name in a family with long names. She is a beautiful little girl and we are so proud of her. Larry is working a lot in Florida, with several teaching jobs and some property he owns and manages.
Spring seems so far away, but it really is only three months or so from us now. Februrary brings Valentines day and remember to keep our friendships and family close to heart.
We are looking forward to visiting Cyndi's family in Florida this coming Easter week. That is if the Lord makes it possible for us to do it.
For future editions of this newsletter if you have any news that you would like included in the next letter, get it to us by the 15th of the month. The 20th of each month we will email the letter.
