She definitely needs a hobby. Keeping busy but doing something she enjoys is very important. I can't wait to retire.

got a couple calls tonight my brother inlaw passed away today . He recently was in chemo and radiation treatment for throat cancer , and was going to have an mri before throat surgery last week . But he could not walk , so then took him to the hospital and had to have emergency back surgery . Now today his heart gave out , as I said to my sister who is mad at herself for not being there today , there is nothing you could have done differently and maybe it's a good thing you did not see it . my nephew with down syndrome and leukemia is not doing to good right now either . They went to philly last wed for consultation on research treatment and they are working on his blood now . hopefully they can treat it and find no issues . time will tell . for me these events just prove enjoy each day as you never know what can happen.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Had a great day at the auction. Sometimes you just never know what will happen. I'm a Smokey and the Bandit fan, so I got excited when this arrived.

I got 3 more years till retirement, unless they offer another early out.

I can't wait. But I really hope the wife finds something to do.

It was a pleasant surprise.

Sorry for your loss. Hope they find a treatment for the nephew.

Yet another snow day here but this should be the last one. Some thawing going on now & rain moving in for this evening should take care of the rest. Mike is going to take me to my exercise class in the truck to get me out of the house.

So sorry to hear of the difficulties! So true about enjoying each day. I keep a quote on my keyboard at work.
