The forecast said the weather would be beautiful this week but, so far, it has rained both days.  It has been a very hard week for my family and this weather is fitting to our mood.  Aunt Sara, my beautiful Aunt Sara, died unexpectedly over the weekend.  My initial post was going to include how her son, Jeff (Jeffrey as we call him), spoke at my church for a Veteran's Day service on Tuesday.  Jeff is a Brigadier General.  Aunt Sara and Uncle John were in attendance along with several other family members including my parents and Aunt Zell.  I will post pictures this weekend once we get through the initial shock and the funeral.  

Meanwhile, I just wanted to update everyone on where I've been.  Here is the picture and obituary of my beautiful Aunt Sara.  

November Is Here

The end of Daylight Savings Time really seems to have a negative effect on me.  I come home from work and struggle to get anything done around the house although, I do love waking up when it isn't "pitch black" outside.  The House passed a bill in North Carolina to get rid of DST.  As of this moment, it has stalled in the Senate.  Since I live on the State line and go to church in South Carolina....I'm not sure how I will maneuver being on 2 different clocks.  

Every night, I visit my parents and make sure they are eating and taking their pills.  Some nights I cook for them.  It is a lot of work but, I wouldn't do anything differently.  Many nights, this is the meal they choose to make for themselves.
