“Upstate New Yorkers”
This was emailed to me today and I just had to post it… Too funny… “Upstate New Yorkers” If the speed limit on the highway is 55 — your going 80 — and everybody is passing you, you may live in upstate New York! If you have switched from heat to AC and back again in the same day, you may live in upstate New York. If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September to the end of May, you could live in upstate New York ! If you install security lights to your house and garage, [...] Read more »

I miss you Nana!
Today is my Grand Mothers (Nana) Birthday unfortunately she had passed on so I cannot call her and tell her how much I love her. She had passed on in 2005 and the time has not taken away my pain. She was not only a Grand Mother but a Mother and a friend. My Nana raised me while both of my parents held full time jobs. This is why it is so painful to me that I lost her. Nana, I know you are in a better place looking down on me and hope you and Gramps are with each [...] Read more »
Round Two for my Dad…
Well today is the day my Dad goes for surgery to help open up his arteries in his heart. He had to go to the hospital last week for tests and now he must return for the actual surgery.

If everything goes well this will be the end of his procedure, otherwise we have more to worry about. For now let’s just all hope everything goes well and he can [...] Read more »
