Still Here!

I'm here, just been very busy...sorry for the long delay in posts.

I start school on Tuesday, so I'm looking forward to that. My book for the class came yesterday and I'm very excited to get started. I can't wait to get my degree! It will be a while though. ;o)

I have also been busy watching all the Election "stuff" on TV and am VERY excited about McCain's pick as VP. She is an amazing woman and I think the two of them can do great things for this country.

You may have also noticed that September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness month. Last night the networks aired a special called "Stand Up 2 Cancer". It was awesome! I wish they would have mentioned Ovarian Cancer, but I know they couldn't mention all of them. It was hard to watch because it reminded me of my mother so much and others that I know fighting the fight. Cancer strikes 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women...Every 60 seconds, someone dies of cancer...Every week, 10,000 American's lose their battle. Please help if you can, and visit www.standup2cancer.org and make a pledge. Together we can put an end to cancer deaths. They have come so far and are SO close to a cure. You never know who it's going to strike, your wife, mother, son or daughter, husband, or you. Please take a stand against cancer.

I miss my mom so much. I cried myself to sleep last night because I miss hearing her voice, seeing her smile, and knowing that she was just a phone call away. I do talk to her and I know she can hear me, It's hard when I can't hear her though. I know I'm going to continue to have these days and I need to. I have to grieve, I can't keep it in.

Please pray for a friend/reader of my blog, Nat, as she continues to fight the fight of Ovarian Cancer. Her scan after treatments came back with some bad news, but she is seeking a trial treatment and I am praying that it will do the trick.

I hope you all have a great weekend and I will post as soon as I can!
