So many "sad" or even "bad" things have happened.
A good family friend, that lives next my parents was diagnosed with cancer. Another friend of my moms passed away from cancer last week.
Recently, I've found myself annoyed with everyone saying "live each day like it's your last". Really? Honestly, If I KNEW when I was going to leave this place, I'd make dinner, watch a movie, cuddle with one child in each arm, kiss them good night, and go to sleep. Is that just me? But, I can see why certain people would say to do that, but I choose to live everday, normally.
I don't think everythings really hit me. I just know, and feel like everyones patience is being tried, tested, and questioned. But, everyones rooting for each other and coming together unbelieveably well. Interesting how a horrible illness, will pull people together. I'm glad it can do that, vs tear people apart. I'm hoping he does well, he's helped me out many times, and has been very good to my mom, while my dad is gone.
On a happier note, after we moved to Puyallup, with all the chaos, my diet did NOT change, but I somehow managed to gain a bunch of weight. Not a ton by normal standards, but enough to where I don't like it. So, we have our gym membership FINALLY set up, that literally costs us nothing, and I'll be aiming to get to 105. Go me, and I hope it freakin' works.
So sorry to hear about all the struggles around you... please give your mom a "hello" from me :) I didn't know you were in Puyallup.. my grandmother was born and raised there and I have been there once and LOVED it. If you meet any Britts, I'm related to them.
