Dropping like flies...

It seems that way to me. My friends and family are vanishing and I am stuck in my house in CO with no way to do anything about it. Today is my friend Aaron's funeral. I wish I could go, he was a really funny guy, everyone should have met him at least once. I talked to our friend Kelly last night, who was his best friend, he sounded great on the phone. He said it just didn't feel real yet, it happened so fast and it's just not real until you go to the funeral for something so tragic. So my heart and mind are with them today. Kelly said he would give everyone hugs for me. Him and his wife are supposed to come visit this summer with their kids. They Mike & I 's best friends from home. Kelly is Mike's BF and my ex.....and Brooke is one of my go friends from homt too, our kids are the same age and we all get along so great, I can't wait to see them all!!

OK that was a random rant, but I am trying to see the best of things this week, which is hard.

This morning, I got a phone call from My SIL Tatum telling me that Mike's Gma "Bubby" is in the hospital. She had a heart attack last night, so they brought her in....supposedly she wasn't feeling well for a few days before that, but they made her go to work so they could pay their bills....don't get me started on Mike's family. Anyways, she is now in the ICU, on a ventilator and they don't give her a good prognosis. She is 80 years old, I knew this day would come someday...but besides my SIL Tatum, Bubby was the only other one I really liked on that side. She lived with us on and off over the years and was always working her ass off. She lived with us out here in CO for awhile, she drove me nuts sometimes, but I loved her. She was always a good conversation, had amazing stories to tell, would tell me about my husband when he was a little guy and how much our kids were like him.
I really hope she makes it, but maybe won't be able to work anymore or his family will continue to take advantage of her.
Pray for her today, she is a strong old woman, this is her 4th heartattack so we shall see if she pulls through.

Seriously, is this week over yet?!?!?!?

I just want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
