Weekend Update

Yesterday we attended the funeral of a family friend. He was in his early 70's, father of 2, grandfather of 4. Diagnosed with cancer less about 3 months ago, and died on New Years Day. Very sad. May he rest in peace. This is yet another example of that terrible disease. I urge everyone, no matter what their age, to get annual check ups at the doctor. Only if its caught early do we ever have a chance against it. Again, we showed up, paid our respects, and were out of there. T behaved very well.

In other news, the xmas tree comes down today. I hate taking it down. The only bright spot is that we don't have to wait until February for the next big "event". We're gearing up here for Inaugeration Day! Unfortunately, I won't be able to take off work. Upside is that I have a TV in my office. I suspect it will be on all day long. I think I'll be picking up some patriotic paper plates and some pastelitos. Its a party!
