So, alot has happened since my last blog...

Our wedding plans have reached an abrubt hault due to the unexpected and tragic loss of my fiance's mother. She was only 54 and suffered a serious heart attack, my fiance is taking it really hard and I'm doing everything I can to be strong for her. Granted she has her good days, but then she has days like yesterday where all she does is cry. I've never been good at keeping my emotions in check, but I think I've done a pretty good job keeping them burried so I can be her shoulder to cry on, though at times it's just so that I have one to cry on, as well. Her mother, though overbearing at times was such an amazing woman, she saw the good in everyone and always but everybody else before her. For instance an hour before she died, despite having chest pains and a "sore" shoulder she was more worried about massaging her husband's stiff neck than her own problems. Sure she could've focused on hers and maybe she'd still be with us, but that just wasn't her nature. She's definitely going to be sorely missed.

I started on my left sleeve just before she passed and this week I finally got back to work on it. My artist, who I trust and have so much faith in drew me this picture of an angel resting her head on a pillar and inscribed on the pillar are the names of five friends that helped mold me into the person that I am, including my fiance's mother, and I'm so happy with the way that it's turning out.

On the 26th of this month I'm going to be racing a car that her mother bought 2 years ago for either her son or her other daughter's fiance to race, but neither of them have had the desire to. I know she would be so proud that someone is finally running it. So, if anyone's going to be in the Snydersville, PA area that night come show your support.
