I took the cue from my sister (and her blog) to 1. start blogging again, and 2. start sweeping once again.
I'm not saying I'm over mourning the loss of my mother, but (at this point) it feels right doing two things I enjoyed. I still don't know about my web site; however, I am tinkering with the thought of putting my blog on there (with the links to my past works still up), so people know that yes I am still around; however, I no longer have the heart to update anything Princess Maker related unless something epic is announced.
So what have I been doing? About every two weeks I spend a few days with Dad and the dogs. We (Dad and I as Sammy and Buddy could care less) watch movies and various TV stuff Dad recorded. Our big show right now is Jeopardy. At times Dad gives me this "How in the world did you know that?" look, and I say that something stick in my mind better than others. Spelling and math I'm a goner, but Pop Culture, Music, History, and Countries and I'm there.
Anyway other than that same old same old around here. Sometimes I like that, and other times I want to scream and then take a nap. Then again I like naps, so a nap with no screaming is a good day. :)
Still playing FFXI and FFXIV though XI is getting less attention. Still working on leveling my sub jobs to 50 before going back to my fave job Ranger. In FFXIV it's the Summer celebration thing going on: Bikinis, Bombs, and Burns.
Okay I can't think of anything else to type about in here, but here's hoping there will be more to come. I may not type every day, but here's hoping I can at least have something to say once a week.

So Like Yeah....
Heck, I don't know if I'm going truly express my feelings in this post. Plus I think this is one more hurdle I need to go over.
As you may have noticed my last post was during the Thanksgiving holiday, and how much of a wonderful time we all had as a family. We were also getting ready for Christmas, and we started to make plans. Nothing major, but they were plans just the same.
December third Mom goes into the hospital; however, to say that my Mom is a bad a patient is in fact an understatement. She wanted out as soon as went in. One doctor noticed she has swelling in her feet and wanted her to take a nuclear stress test, but being the stubborn woman didn't want any part of it.
Yeah I'm still scratching my head over that since she basically taken care of my sister and I through out our childhood as we went in and out of Scottish Rite Hospital in Dallas. Not to mention my Dad's heart attack, double bypass, just to name a few in the years of their marriage. That's all I'm going to say cause if I keeping thinking about it my blood will boil...again.
Seeing that the doctors couldn't do anything she was released from the hospital. One of the many things she did while back home was ask Dad if her sister Evie was still alive. My Aunt Evie died on Jan 25th, 2010.
On Dec 6th after I had woken up from my nap I called Mom and Dad to check up on Mom. Even though I wasn't able to speak with her, I told Dad to tell her that I loved her. Dad said she heard me and said that she loved me too.
Later that afternoon my mother Leah had a massive heart attack. The paramedics were able to get a pulse; however, we did not know how long her brain was without oxygen. At the hospital tests were ran, but there was no brain activity; therefore, on Dec 10th Dad, Lisa, and myself decided it time to say goodbye and have her taken off life support.
Her funeral was held on the 17th with wonderful family and friends to support us.
Christmas and New Years came and went, and we are doing our best to make it through the days and weeks and months ahead.
Lisa and I were not the only ones to lose a mother. My brother in law Stevie lost his mother Grace a few weeks later. Lisa and Mia flew with Stevie to England. My poor sweet niece lost two grandmothers in a span of just a little over one month (if that).
So like yeah I don't know what else to talk about. I don't know if I'll make another post (I surely hope so). I might have post about things I miss about Mom or staying with Dad. Who knows?
I just need to get over this hurdle. Oh, I also don't plan on proof reading this, so please bear with me.
Thank you.
