So my second attempt at a new blog. Last time my computer froze on me while it tried to save. So here we go. A lot has happened in the the last four months or so with some highs and some lows. To start out, my mother came to me and told me that they had found some cancerous cells in her uterus back in Oct. I believe. She told me that they had talked and planned to do a full hesterectomy. Which is fine for the most part but my mom didn't take the best care of herself. She does now, but leading up to the surgery I wasn't sure if she'd make it. Let me tell you having the talk with your mom about power of attorney is one tough subject. I could care less if my dad up in died tomorrow, but my mom has been there for me when my son died and when I found my ex in bed with someone else. She didn't always have the answers but would alway listen to me or my sister. Well to make this short the surgery took longer than expected but she came out of it fine and there have been no signs of the cancerous cells. She's just started back to work and is glad to be out of the house and being usefull again.

In other family stuff, my sister came to me a few days after Thanksgiving to tell me she is pregnant. She has decided to keep the baby. I wish that she'd give it up for adoption, but she has said that she justcan't do that. I understand that it's not any easy choice. Most of the important choices in life never are. As for the father. He's a feal piece of work. He has at least two kids that I know of not including the one my sister is carring and he doesn't take care of either of them. My sister seems to be under the impreesion that this time it's going to be different. She says that they aren't together any more and that his only response to her telling him was "I guess you'd better qiut drinking" and walked away. Like I said a real piece of work. A class act. It took me some time but I've told her I don't agree with her choice but I will be supportive. I guess thats about the best I can do about that.

Now with some better news. I have donated my hair to Locks of Love. I did it for a number of reasons. One it's a good cause. You can read about them here. As well as a tribute of sorts to a friend whos sister died of cancer about two years ago. She fought cancer for about three years before she lost that fight. Then lastly for myself. It made me feel better about myself knowing that my hair was going to help some kid with cancer or lopecia areata feel better about themselves and feel just a bit more normal.

Me with hair.
Me with no hair.

Now what I'm really excited about is getting to go to Boston this March. I haven't go anywhere on vacation for a few years now and it's bout time. It's a trip for many reasons. First it will be St. Patty's day weekend and where better to be to celebrate than Boston. Not only will it be St. Patty's but I get to see my fav. band the Dropkick Murphys. It's so going to be a mad house. I can't wait. Then also my birthday just happens to be that following weekend. I'm getting two kick ass parties in one week. Well thats it for now.
