Another Wednesday

Another Wednesday has come and gone. In my office we like to call this humpday, the day in the middle of the week that means we are almost done! It is also a day to eat junk at 3 p.m. We haven't done this in awhile but I think I am going to try to start this again in the new year. It really lifts the office spirits when we are so stressed.

This Wednesday was like no other I have experienced in a long time. It started out with snow at 2 a.m. and sleet to follow, then the 5:30 a.m. phone call from school saying there is a 2 hour delay. Thankfully my mom was able to go into work late and put Maddy on the bus, so I could get into tht office on time. Robby had no school today. The roads were treacherous!

Later in the morning I had a funeral to attend for a close family friend whose grandfather passed away last week. Grandpere was the best grandfather you could ask for. I have so many fond memories of him when I was young. His grandaughter Robin and I grew up next to eachother and our families used to be close. But the good Lord took her mother and my father and time slipped on. I still see her every now and then and she was even in my wedding but as I said before time got the best of us. Not anymore though, I will not let time take away anything from me anymore.
We don't get much time. In fact we don't even know how much time we have here, so to lose touch is a terrible thing. My New Years resolution is to not lose touch anymore. I want to reconnect with our old exchange student Gema and many other friends.

Madison is doing very well. We studied hard tonight for her social studies test on Friday. Wow that brought back many memories! I used to be just like her, cry if I got frustrated. She did very well though and is so smart. I think she will get an A on the test! I am also starting her enrollement into prep for first Holy Communion. So that will make Tuesdays for the next 6 months crazy!!

Robby is well, sleeping now finally. As for Dr. appts none right now. Hopefully a trip to Shriners next week for new braces. Not really many other updates on him, still eating like a bird but no significant weight loss which is good. He'll eat when he is hungary.

And me, well I was a crazy lady earlier in the week and really let loose on some people, banks and government officials. But that is over now and today church helped to calm my tempered soul. I cried today. Sad for alot of things but really sad because death is very real to me and very scary. I know I should stay positive and trust in the doctors about Robby but ultimatley it is His decision when it is our time and I don't like the not knowing when. Death isn't fair. But I know that even though someone is gone it doesn't mean you stop loving them. It has been 8 years since cancer took my daddy and everyday I still love him. Death didn't take my love for him away. It just took his body. Dad is still looking down on me and still loving me no matter what. Death can't seperate us spritually only physically.

Oh and on a medical note - my MRI of my pituatary gland was clear, no tumor. Go figure. Maybe I moved in the last one (that's what my mom thinks happened!) Still no results on the Mito testing of the muscle biopsy and still the pain/pins and needles feeling is there even now as I type this. I am praying the doctors figure it out soon.
Or maybe it is time to just give my health to Him. If I let it go and give it to Him the answers will be sure to come.
