Part 1
Just for the record, I starting writing this post at 10pm on Jan 10, 2009. I'm not really ready to deal with this post, so I will probably take me a few days to finish it.
This past week I went to DC for training for my new job. It was a awesome week. I spent a lot of time with my sister and nieces. I plan to move there after my daughter graduates from high school and goes off to college. Sometimes I get really scared and freaked out about moving - that's when I know it's time for a visit. This visit was right on time. My timeline for moving is the fall - just in time for the birth of my new great-niece or nephew. How cool is that?
During this same week, my father was admitted to the hospital - on his 86th birthday - for fluid in his lungs. Yesterday we were told he has stage 4 lung cancer. How uncool is that?
I remind myself everyday how blessed I am to be 44 and still have both my parents, still married to each other - 60 years in March. Ok...time to stop - hurts too much.
