Bringing You Up To Speed

The news came on August 2nd, it is a game changer.

As often happens with life's larger events there is really nothing that can be done but ride it out with a positive attitude. And a positive attitude is exactly what I have. It could be so much worse, as a matter of fact in my case there is hardly anything at all. I am very lucky.

On to happier thoughts, we did take a mini vacation at the end of April to Geneva, OH. It really was quite nice. In May we concentrated on getting Don ready to run his last two marathons in his 50 state quest. At the end of May and early June Don and Rob flew out to Oregon and Washington to run the races. I am so proud of Don for fulfilling his quest, it was not all a walk in the park; some of those races were grueling. Later in June we bought a new car, another Impala and we love it. June ended with a trip to Cincinnati to see my favorite group, the Great Lake Swimmers in concert and they were great. On July 7, we celebrated our 35th anniversary. How sweet it is to spend those years with the one who stole my heart all those years ago. And now here we are into August, cross country season begins Monday. Our summer is essentially over.

That pretty well gets you up to speed on what has been happening in my world these last few months. Most of it was very good, as for the bit that isn't…

There is always hope.
