My blog. Personal thoughts, anecdotes, and musings.
We went up to see my parents tonight and we cooked hot dogs and bratwurst on the grill. It was pretty cold but the food cooked up pretty fast. I worry about Mom because she tries to do too much too soon, and I just want her to be more careful. I’ve only got one set of parents, and I’d like them to be around for awhile yet. I’m pretty excited about Neal and Sara’s wedding.
“Everything Happens To Me” (Chet Baker) One of the coolest tunes ever. Chet sings so soft and mellow, and his delivery of this great song is just perfect. It’s the song for anyone who just feels like nothing ever goes right for them, especially love. “I” (dada) This song has incredible harmonies and neat guitar overlays. dada is probably my favorite rock band, and this would be my favorite song.
Neal and Sara got engaged tonight. We’re all excited about their upcoming wedding.
There’s so much going on right now. I started working on a new program that will let administrators know when servers are unavailable. I plan to get it working and start selling it. The problem is that I don’t have a lot of time to spend on it because I have some web stuff going on as well. The new designs I’m working on are almost done, and I’ve set a goal for myself this weekend.
Mom’s out of surgery. They found quite a bit of lymphoma in both ovaries, and some on her colon. They removed all the lymphoma they could find, but they also found an unknown mass in the uterous. It could be a fibroid tumor, or it could be much much worse. I don’t want to think about that, so I won’t. The surgeon said they would know more within two weeks, so we are all back to the waiting game.

Mom will have her surgury tomorrow (Friday) and they plan to do a biopsy during the operation. I visited Mom in the hospital this afternoon and she was doing well, but she said that she was in a bit of pain. I want to be there tomorrow but I don’t know if I should skip work just to sit in a waiting room for three hours. I am nervous that if somethign doesn’t go right, I won’t be there, but then what could I do anyway?
Mom’s back in the hospital again, and just like always I haven’t quite figured out how to deal with it. I kept myself busy tonight with work projects, and I have a splitting headache, but I don’t think I want to sleep. I’ll probably sit in bed for a few hours before I get some sleep. Since she’s going to have her surgury sooner than she’d hoped, she’ll probably miss the walk on the 6th, which means a lot to her.
Wow. All I can say is that I don’t remember a day where the wind kept going like that. According to some reports, we had some wind gusts over 50 miles per hour around here yesterday. A couple of trees near me were taken down, and I don’t mean little trees. I mean big trees. Ana’s sandbox is flooded because I had to bring the lid in the house. It blew away a few times yesterday, along with the neighbor’s trash can.
We were without power for several hours last night, but it was odd because our area really didn’t get much. I looked outside last night and I could see the sky filled with lightening flashes, but none of them were anywhere near where we lived. We did get some rain though. That should help with the dust and ashes that has become my back yard.
