Why do I feel like it's ground hogs day all over again?

Have you ever woken up and felt like you're living the same day all over again? If so, join the club! This past week was like Ground Hog's Day all over again! Last Sunday, my dad had his second heart attack in just five weeks. He had stints put in over two years ago and now his body is rejecting the stints. The doctors don't know why this is happening and instead of fixing the problem, they are just moving and/or placing more stints into his heart. What is wrong with this picture? If you put a band-aid on a gushing fire hydrant, it's eventually going to break!

On top of all this, it took the hospital three days to get him a room. Can you imagine being in ICU for three days! This is ridiculous! While I am no expert in this field, I'm very disappointed in the treatment my dad received. At any rate, they let him leave home on Wednesday and so far he's hanging in there!

The weather in Texas wasn't so great this week either. Although we need the rain, I'd rather be coaching my daughter's little league team! We're all a bunch of rookies and could really use the practice. We had to cancel practice two times this week because of the weather! Now, we're rolling into game season and I still have all of my players running into the outfit to wrestle for the ball! (LOL!)

On Friday, March 13th, the business adjacent to ours crumbled to the ground! It was unbelievable! The only reason our business and the many others in the same shopping center were not burned to the ground was because of Rene. They've determined the start of the fire was due to electrical issues and as of now all of the businesses around the fire are out of electricity. They're projecting we won't have any for at least two weeks!

John & I are in good spirits despite the adversity and emotional stress we've been through this week. We're doing fairly well and communicating better than ever! We're very thankful for the people we have in our lives and for everything we have!

2009 has been a tough year for us so far. My thinking is that it can and should only get better from here! We're strong and will pull through!
