It’s been a strange week. With a holiday smack in the middle, there’ve been two Mondays and two Fridays and two Saturdays. Weird. Our company allowed anyone who wanted to take a vacation this week to do so. We’ve been working w/ a half crew, but it’s been a lot quieter, for some reason.

An employee and friend lost her baby brother this week. This 43 year old man worked Tue morning, mowed the yard Tue afternoon, laid down for a nap Tue evening and never woke up. How very sad for this dear family. Another employee’s dad is on total life support and they are agonizing over the decision that could end his life. Been there, done that. Hurts terribly. (Note to self: Make a living will very soon. Note fo family: DNR)

On a lighter note......

Home-made strawberry ice cream….yum-yum. Laurie & crew came over Wed afternoon bearing a sweet gift. David (D’s dad) makes a mean ice cream. I’ve been rationing it and I’m already looking forward to the last installment tonight. It’s not helping my weight loss effort, but IT IS SOOOOO GOOD.

Look on my xanga site tomorrow for a few new pics.
