A Dark Day

Well, it happened. My aunt passed away yesterday. 10:50 p.m. on Saturday, September 13, 2008. As always said, she is in a better place, and her suffering is over. I just can't believe how fast it went. That's life I guess. It will just motivate me more for the next American Cancer Society Relay for Life Event!!!!!

Also, I don't know if I blogged since my idiotic klutz moment. I was at Grandma and Grandpa's Anniversary party taking the camera equipment out to the car, found an uneven spot in the ground and rolled my ankle. When I went to the ER on Sunday they said it was fractured in 3 places and casted it. The orthopedic specialist on Monday said no fractures, just a very severe high ankle sprain which is sometimes worse than a fracture because they can take longer to heal. Either way, I have the ridiculous boot, which I think i'm going to stop wearing and just suffer now. I wasn't even drunk, that is the sad part. Oh, by the way, crutches SUCK!!!

Aunt Carol, I will never forget you, I miss you, and I hope that heaven is everything you hoped it was! Little Carol...I am there for you if you should ever need it....just call me!

Oh Sweet Life

My favorite time of year has finally arrived....fall. Who would have guessed with the extremely HOT weather we had Labor Day weekend, but then the temperature dropped quite suddenly later this week. So anyway, the leaves are slowly starting to change colors. I should be really happy and excited about that, but yet...I'm not too happy an excited. I received news today that Aunt Carol isn't doing so well. She is currently in the hospital and will be coming home on Monday. The doctor has given her less than six months to live. They are also stopping on her chemo because it isn't working. I am very sad about that! I just don't understand why life has to be so cruel sometimes. I also sit back here in my chair while I type this and think to myself.....why did I have to be so stubborn for the last 10 years and not talk to her. To be honest, I can't even remember why I was mad in the first place and now I feel like I have to cram 10 years missed into the next six months. Ridiculous! I hate that about life. I know there are bigger plans for us, but still...what the hell is wrong with having the plan last a little longer here? Then again, who am I to ask such a silly question. It's God's plan...he can do whatever he wants and we love him for that! Keep praying...maybe there will be a miracle. Anyway, I'm gonna end this...I have to work at midnight, but right now I have a chance to go see Kamryn!
