We recently went to Arkansas to visit Robert's family. His mother had a stroke and we were checking in on that situation. We went over Memorial weekend--I have pictures and will post some later. We visited some cemeteries that his family were buried in. I remember going to the cemetery on time as a child. This is the first time in my adult life that I have went to a cemetery on Memorial weekend. It was a touching event for me. I had never met any of the people that we "visited", still in some weird way felt connected to them. We did get the chance to go to the old farm house and look around the place. I learned many stories and tales of Ms. Ruby's childhood. She grew up in Neosho, Mo. It is a REALLY small town just inside the Missouri line. I hope that from here on out I will be able to pay respect to my loved ones that have passed on during this time. Just a little thought I had and wanted to share.

Update Needed!
Lara said that I needed to post something on here--I feel like nothing is going on in our lives--so what to post. I have pics that I need to put on here--but will have to do that another time. Robert and I are leaving on Wednesday morning to visit his family in Arkansas. I am excited to go and see them. His mother had a stroke about 6 weeks ago--she is recovering fine and no damage done to any organs so that is good. We feel like we need to just go visit anyway. The last time we went was at Thanksgiving--so it is time.
That is about all that is going on in our lives. Robert and I work and work to pay bills! I am sure that is the way it is with everyone--sometimes I wonder if there is more to life.......or I just am on the wrong road. Oh well--I will deal with what I have--as I am sure everyone else is as well. I hope all is well with everyone and will post more later--

I got this from Melissa's blog. This is so weird to me-all of these tests that you can take on the internet and they seem to peg you right off--so weird!

Julie Radomski
Well, I am sitting here at work very sad--my dear friend and boss Julie had a massive heart attack and passed away last night around 11:30pm. As some of you know she just buried her husband on the 5th of January. She was struggling with his death and she seemed to be more and more depressed as the days went by. I know she got all of her personal stuff in order . I just went and witnessed her will last Tuesday. I am still in shock and wish it was not real. I got home from the hospital at 2am. The guys at Haven House are not sure that it is real and are very sad that Ms. Julie is not coming back. The funeral will be on Friday and the visitation on Thursday. We will take the guys to the funeral home for the visitation. I just felt I needed to write this down--I am sorry to share this with everyone but this is good or me. She always called herself Robert's 2nd wife. We would joke around all the time about that. She went to Mardi Gras with us this year and we had a great time. She will truly be missed.
