A quick update

I know that it has been a few weeks since I have been on and posted. The last 2 weeks have been so busy for me, at work and at home. We heard from all the grandbabies at Easter. Haley, Noah and Bethany are doing really well. Haley is enjoying school. Noah is Noah, talking up a storm and missing his Papa. When I was talking with him that is who he wanted. Imagine that? And his Papa is missing them all. Bethany is becoming mobile and is trying to walk. It is so hard to believe that she is going to be 1 year old in few weeks. Veronica (Bryan's wife) is ready to have Stephen any day now. So, we are really looking forward to our new grandson.
Skylar and Dalton are both doing well. That is my oldest son's children. Skylar will talk for just a few minutes at the time and then she is done with the phone. Dalton is sitting up and trying to crawl. Hard to believe that these babies are growing up so fast, but they are.
Work is work. I stay busy, busy, busy.
Momma is have a few good days here and there but overall she is doing okay. Daddy is not doing well at all but that is to be expected with COPD. I have been up there 4 days this week and when he breaths, I can hear him weezing.
Oh, there is going to be a documentary on HBO 2 beinging May 2, 2009 dealing with A.D. The ad was saying that "this is a battle that will be won, and that there are many new advances with this disease." I hope and pray that the doctors' are right. This is an awful disease that many. many people are living with. This is going to be a 4 part series. Maria Shriver will be on the first segment, then there is going to be a part dealing with caregivers and the other parts will be with doctors. I hope that everyone will be the chance to see this.
I hope that every is doing well. We finally got around to planting the garden this weekend. The rain has let up for now. We have gotten over 10 inches of rain in the last 2 weeks so needless to say, it is wet here. I could not believe how much seed has gone up especially corn. 9.00 dollars a pound.
Take care and have a great week...Peace, love and happiness

Taking a day off!!!

Yea, I needed a day off. I have not taken a day off of work since Dec. 8th except for the weekends and I stay so busy on the weekends until it seems like I work so I took the day off. And I doing anything productive? NO. I did feed the dogs this morning. David is out of town and left at 5 am and the dogs went back to sleep. Yea, they were inside last night due to the thunder storms and we were under a tornado watch. It was thundering, lightening and hailing in your neck of the woods. And I didn't have the heart to leave them in the yard with this weather. These dogs are like my kids so ....This happened Saturday and then again last night. Ella is just terrified of bad weather and was in my lap all night until I went to bed with a splitting headache.
Momma is having a few good days. I went by and seen them last night for a few hours and it was question after question. But that is the way that it is with Momma. Same questions in a row. All you can do is answer her. My sister called me last (Burkett's wife) and we had a wonderful, open and honest conversation about what is going on it her life. She is sad and lonely. I hope that one day she will find someone to love her. She is a wonderful person and has a heart of gold and she does not need to be alone. She is young. She has a lot to offer someone. I hope that she finds someone if nothing else to be a friend, someone to go to the movies with, have dinner with. No one deserves to be alone. She did tell me that she has spoken with my son (Noah's father) and that everything is well with the kids. I don't know that there is an emotion that I feel as of this moment but saddness, broken-hearted, missing them. My "two buddy" .....
Have a great week...peace, love and happiness.....
