My brother

This has been a hard week for me and my family. My brother Bill has passed away from a very aggressive cancer. I am very upset for so many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that he was a very special person to so many, me included. He was a good brother, husband, son, uncle, policeman and he will be missed more than I ever thought possible. Would I want him back, no. He was suffering too much but will I miss him? Every second of every day for the rest of my life and I am feeling a pain that I never thought I would feel. This sucks!

Today is friday, April 11th and it is 10:37 p.m. I am very happy because my boss is due home from Iraq in just a few more days. He will only behome for 2 weeks but that is better than nothing and he will be safe for at least that long.
I am a grandma again, Dave and Heather have had a little baby boy. Benton David was born on the 28th of March at 3:41 p.m. MT. He was 22 1/2 in long and weighed 10# 13 oz. He is quite the little man. His brother and sister are in love and so are his mom and dad. He looks like quite a handful.

Easter is over and now the year (in Religious Ed.) will begin to wind down and summer will fill the time. Summer means a ton of cleaning for my office and then reading myself to begin again in September. It seems like a long time away but it truly goes by so fast that it will be here before we know it. I guess I should get all the rest I can now because I'm making myself tired! :)

Today is the first day of Triduum and Holy Week is almost over. Holy Week...the week that changed the world. I really am hoping that this will be a peaceful holiday season for one and all.

IRISH DANCE!!

Holy Week

This is Holy Week and will be a very busy one for me. I am hoping that it is a good week for all those people I know and the Easter Season ahead will be one filled with peace for all.

My first blog

Today I'm just finishing my homework for class and I'm getting ready to leave for good old Canada. I really love going to school in Windsor and I love even more that the class work isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I juest read my daughter-in-law's blog site about my beautiful and wonderful little miracle grandchildren and what they are up to so I'm feeling very good.
