Yesterday we just missed getting walloped by a tornado. We had winds stronger than I have seen here for years. We lost half of one of our big oak trees. The power went out around 3 in the afternoon and just came on around 2 this afternoon. I went out and bought a 7000 watt generator which insures two things. 1. We will never be without power again. 2. We will never lose power again. Murphy's Law you know.. :D
Believe it or not, I didn't see one second of the game last night. Remember I had no power? If I had gone to a bar to watch it I probably wouldn't have been able to get back in the house.... :D The Penguins should be back again next year. They have a great young team... Actually we had a pretty good time playing Cody's favorite board game Monopoly.
I have to take him in to get his blood checked in tomorrow. Hopefully he won't need any blood. Next week he has all of his scans and tests. We are praying for a clean slate. That way he can begin his antibody treatments.
If you are looking for a new gift idea or something nice for yourself, check out the BOP etching link to the right of my blog. It is the big fund raiser for our group this year. They have some pretty nice ideas.
God is calling another angel... Stop in and give a kind word or two..

About Me
- Deck Ape
- I grew up, ah, got older in Ford City Pa. A small town 45 minutes up the Allegheny River from Pittsburgh. Growing up a true 70's child I really thought that the Steelers were suppose to win the Super Bowl every year. :D Being the free spirit that I am I couldn't wait to get out on my own, so I joined the Navy. I flew out to the Philippines and met my boat the USS John Paul Jones DDG32. From there we sailed back to the states and spent most of the rest of my tour between San Diego and Long Beach. Since getting out I married twice, had 6 children and lived in Groton CT, Pensacola FL, Germantown MD and now in Northern VA. I've been married to my wife Diane for 10 years now and have three energetic and loving children. My life reads like a fiction novel in many ways. Many ups and downs but I feel blessed to have this life. To some it may seem boring but it's all mine.. :D

Sounds like you folks had a storm
& a half.Never in a million years
could I have imagined that you were not able to see that game...
I think everyone is sorry that they
lost but they sure gave it a good try.Guess we will all have to hope
that 2009 is their year.Next is the Steelers turn to rattle our nerves. Hope and pray you'll be able to send us good news about Cody and his tests.I'll be checking
often. I just came up from washing
two loads of clothes & will be heading for bed.I did check out the
BOP etching link and there are some nice things that they make.
I'll have to decide and start saving up my pennies.
LOVE YOU ALL MUCH,
MOM
You guys should've came to my house! We had power! :)

Wow! I thought you had seen the game we didn't have any problem with power. I guess we were lucky. Quiet night at home, sounds nice! Have a good weekend! We'll be praying for Cody that the scans and test are clear.
