Our Ugly Life

So... it is almost my bedtime but I really wanted to blog tonight (my new thing to do...) about some uglies in our life right now. 1st off, my heart goes out to all of Ean's family because yesterday we lost his stepdad, Paul, to a heart attack! Lynetta, especially...we are praying for you. That God will give you the peace and direction to go in this time of trial and tribulation. The one thing I will always remember about Paul specifically is that when he 1st met me I drove him nuts cause I talked all the time. But then one day it occurred to him that he likes me and that I "grew" on him. Well, in a way he grew on me too! We love you Paul!

2nd ugly... 1 Year ago today we adopted our sweet little Molly. Our hot collie. Well, I told you a few days ago that a lot has happened since October of 08 when I really started dropping off the face of the planet. The ugly in this little Story is...that we loss Molly on November 13th at 5:45pm to a hit and run on the Speedway out in front of our house. The good news is she didn't suffer the bad news, my Heart broke and I am still horribly sad even today. At nine months old, it didn't seem fair and I still have so much love for her!! She will always be with me, us, everyone she ever touched loved her. She was such a special little puppy. January 25th is Molly's birthday and we held a little visual in honor of her. She would be one and three months today if she was still here. But there is not a day that goes by that Sig and Havanna don't miss her, and it is sweet that they still visit her grave in our yard. Oh to be loved by her!

Ean and I are well. Tired but well. We are trying to be there for the family as much as possible but it is a weird spot to be in. We are numbed: plain and simple, and when I say we I mean he. It is gonna affect Ean more than I simply because of history. I just never got to know him like the rest of the family. But to lose a father impacts any ones life and I do not make light of that at all!

I can honestly say that life comes with good and ugly. Thank goodness it is not ugly every day. Because those good days get us through the ugly ones...even if we resort to staying in bed all day!

Love to everyone - and good night!
