Well, so much has happened since I last posted on here. School is in full force. The boys are so busy and we are really looking forward to having a few days off over Thanksgiving break. Sam has a great part in the musical "Schoolhouse Rock Live". Remember that show? My favorite song is "I'm Just A Bill". The performances are this weekend and we're really looking forward to it.
My surgery went great last month. We had a few hiccups the week before...Thomas and my mom both had H1N1. Jeff had been laid off and of course got called back to work the day of my surgery. So, my dad watched Thomas and my friend Renee came up from Kalamazoo to take me to the hospital. The surgery was a success and I came home the next day. No pain involved, just a little soreness. I felt back to normal by the end of the week.
My grandpa passed away kind of unexpectedly on November 12. He was 84 and in the two weeks before his death he had kidney failure and was diagnosed with stage four lukemia. Luckily he was diagnosed while in the hospital and was never uncomfortable or in any pain. My mom was there with him the entire time and was able to say goodbye which was very comforting. Thomas, Jacob and I drove down to Kentucky for the funeral which was hard, but a very lovely service. My parents are still there taking care of business and putting his house on the market and should return home on Friday. It's been a heck of a few weeks!
We are looking forward to our family being together for Thanksgiving. I am thankful for all of my family, my health and my wonderful friends. I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday!
