First a few pics I found on Allies computer that I really liked. My bly looking angelic and then the boy looking like the rest of us when a camera is about and making a silly face with my cousins daughter Ella. The nest is probably the only pic of myself on this blog but I figured what the heck, I am what I am. The last is totally girls. love their silliness. Ok here is the latest news around here. Growing up we spent our summers at he mountain house with the grandparents and cousins and extended family and friends. I can tell you that the time spent out ther is time I will always chersih and that the memories are thick and can almost be tasted that is how good some of them are when I think hard enough. Many of those memories revolve around a local bar called The Barn. It was owned by a family that had spent their generations on the mountain as well. My earliest memories of the barn were as a young child going there to have coke in a glass bottle and chips and playing the jukebo...

whats new...

Here goes a month of blogging I should be doing but cant seem to either find the time or find the motivation to write. The latest stuff is I spent friday night at Lehigh Valley Hospital, yeeah a real blast from the past there. I was at school and felt fine. All of a sudden I had terrible nausea, sweating, hearburn, lightheadedness and thought I was going to pass out. It lasted about a minute and by that point I was in full blown panic mode and called Andy who immediately called the paramedics and I was in an als unit within ten minutes.

It took a good 30 minutes to get the initial workup stated at the hospital and then I think i was in panic attack mode so ther really was nothing I could do by that point.

And blew me a kiss and made her signature peace sign. I just spent the last 40 min reviewing the entries I made the past two years on this date. I am better than I was. I still have loss but it is getting better to deal with. I think I am forgetting some things. I am afraid I am forgetting how much I miss him. I dont want to forget... anything. Maybe just more comfortable with the constant discomfort. I explained to a friend it is like having a rock in your shoe, every time you take a step it pinches, you can kick it around in there and move it but it still hurts just in a different spot. Just when you forget you had a rock in your shoe, it hits your right in heel. Fucker that hurts,,, yeah I know. OK so here it is. Dad, Happy Birthday wherever you are. I hope you are hanging with some of your old cronies, maybe some lemon mer...
