As most of you know, thanks to Mr.Monk- GPs for the poor Author Icon, my stepfather passed away Thursday morning. He was diagnosed with acute leukemia Saturday and went into the hospital Sunday night. The doctor at the hospital told my mother that this form of leukemia was like a tsunami or a volcano erupting, because it takes you quickly. The funeral was yesterday, The out-of-town relatives left today. My mother has dealt with everything extremely well. I'm proud of her. My grandmother is with her right now, but I believe she will be going home tomorrow. Mama acted like she was kind of ready for everybody to go home so things could settle down and she could deal with it on her own terms. She is a strong woman.

Thank you to Mr.Monk- GPs for the poor Author Icon for checking on me, and for the c-note from *Barbara Maria* Author Icon. You guys rock.

I have tomorrow off. I may have Tuesday and Wednesday off too, I think. I'm just going to rest, I think. I believe the kids and I are fixing to put on our pajamas and veg in front of the TV.

Nighty night.
