Prayers are needed
This is going to be a very hard blog to write today. My cousin, Kathy, who is 42 years old, was diagnosed with liver cancer a week and a half ago. The doctors said the cancer was inoperable and a transplant was out of the question. Not good news. Yesterdays news was worse. The doctors have given her a week to live. How can this be?? Kathy is much too young to be taken away now. She has a daughter who is 12 or 13. I am not sure exactly how old. Kathy's dad died when he was 43 from cancer. Dawna and I are going to Butler hospital on Thursday to see Kathy and to probably say good bye to her. That will be so difficult to do. How do you say good bye to a 42 year old woman? I am at a loss for words here. Just please pray for her and her family. They need your prayers at this time. Thank you all so much.

Vacation time
Hi all! I am currently on vacation from the post office. It feels so good to have some time off. Give my feet a rest. They sure need it. I get 5 weeks vacation per year. Can't complain about that! I am working on my basement some this week. I have a steeler room upstairs, but, I am moving it to the basement. Dawna's son Randy is moving in with us around Thanksgiving, so he needs a bedroom upstairs. So, I am giving him my steelers room, and moving it to the basement. It is really a nice room in the basement. I am going to paint it, and decorate it with some nice Pittsburgh colors. Then I need to move all my Pittsburgh memorabilia down there, and maybe get a steelers rug. I have a recliner and a futon, along with a TV, and surround sound system. Should turn out to be a nice room when I am done.
Dawna and I went out to Breakfast this morning with her brother Denny and his wife Pam. They called this morning and invited us to join them. It was a nice way to start the day. think we might go to my Parents house tonight to use their Hot tub. That should help Dawna's back, and my feet. We used to have a hot tub, but, it kind of died on us. It would have cost us too much to have it repaired, so, we gave it away. Now, I wish we had it back. Oh well, guess we can use my parents hot tub for now.
Dinner is almost ready, so I will end this for now. Will post pictures of my new steeler room when it is completed. Have a great day everyone!
