Let's Not Forget

Yeah, yeah. I know. It's been a while. Time just slips by so fast. Two grandkids are a handful to keep up with... they are an adorable handful though so it's okay. Oh, and there's the wedding. That's right. Offspring number one is tying the not in September and we couldn't be happier. And offspring number two? She's taken a job somewhere in the south. It's a city that starts with the letter A and ends with the letter A. We couldn't be happier for her either. All three are doing well.. what with good jobs, two babies, etc etc life really couldn't be better.

It couldn't be more full either. Busy.

Too busy.

I just wanted to pop in and say hi. Summer's coming and those of you who know me best know that will provide more time for blogs such as this...

Maybe I'll even be able to think of something to say.

Remember tomorrow.... May 4, 1970. Where were you then? I was just a young punk but I remember. Then in later years, I went to college on the very campus where this took place. It's sobering when one comes across the campus memorial and realizes what took place 40 years ago. Oh, and May 5th three years later brought the death of my father.

Gosh, May has sucked in the past.

But hey, if you have a minute, watch this..... and remember....some of us will probably never forget.





And one more thing before I go. Say a prayer for Steve and Kathy. Their 14 year old son died from brain cancer this past Friday. They're a sweet family and it tears me up that they've had to experience this. I'm hoping they find peace in the days to come. We were close to them back in the day when we all went to the same church and both our families hosted Chernobyl Children in the summers. Our two Chernobyl girls were good friends. Their son was a preschooler back then. I can remember when his mom was pregnant with him. He was a cute little guy... always had to wear his cowboy boots... even in the summer with shorts. LOL

RIP Mason. You'll be missed.

Okay.. over and out. I need to walk my dog aka "the pup."
