Happy Anniversary

It was my 34th wedding anniversary on Saturday, Dec. 12. Yippy Skippy. We made grilled cheese sandwiches and watched some dumb movie on TV. The weather sucked and we just didn't want to go out. At this rate, we may actually make it to 50!

Life Must Go On

My mother just called to let me know that my dad's brother had passed away this weekend. This makes the 3rd relative in 2 months. My Aunt Kathleen passes about two months ago and then my Uncle David passed about two weeks ago. They were from my mom's side. When I talked to my mom today, she said that my father is really afraid of dying. He will be turning 88 next month. It would be so sad to see him go, but on the other hand he would be with his family and my older brother Richard again. Free from this life's turmoil and trials. Death is a hard thing, sometimes a blessing, sometimes not. But a part of life that we must endore.

Thanksgiving

Well, I survived Thanksgiving! I hate holidays, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas. Since Tyler's death, I have a real hard time around this time of year. We went to my parent's house for Thanksgiving and actually had a decent time. The food was great, my brother Jon is a great cook. My sister was there and so was her son, Justin and his new wife (Susan I think). We really missed Stacey and Ryan, but both Holly and Danny had off of work so they both came. We went to a movie first, Old Dogs, and then had dinner. All in all, it was a liveable day. Now if Christmas would just go away.
