Wow! It's been a year and a half since my first and only post. Really dumb. So much has happened since the last post. The biggest happening being that since I posted last about my new grandson, he now has a baby sister! Amazing huh? Mila Nicole was born on October 26, 2011! She is such a pretty baby. Red hair and the most beautiful blue eyes! They are as pretty blue as Michael's eyes. The picture I'm posting is of her and Mersaydeez. Such pretty girls. Saydee loves her new cousin.
On the 2nd of December we had terrible winds come through here. Clocked at over 100 mph. I lost all the shingles on the north side of my roof and several off the south and several off the shed. My entire carport was blown away. If you've ever been to my home you know how long that was. You could park 4 cars under it end to end and still be covered. The awning on my back porch was also destroyed. Contractors will be here Monday to start repairs. Estimates for repairs are $13,000. At least no one in the park was hurt. Two homes were completely destroyed and power was out for 24 hours. That made for one very cold night, but me and Michael managed okay. They said the awnings would be done before Christmas and I guess they will do the roof in the spring when it is warmer. They did cover all the blank spots to keep out the weather.
The scariest thing to happen to us was around the first of July. That's when my son Cameron found out he had a massive tumor in his chest cavity. Turned out to be testicular cancer of all things. They determined that it was inoperable since part of it had wrapped itself around his aorta. He spent the summer going through radical chemo therapy. And yes my bald son lost his hair. Not quite noticeable on the top of his head but was very heartbreaking when his beard fell out! Needless to say he is now in remission. I guess we have to wait a while before he is officially 'cancer free' but there is no cancer in his body now. Prayer is a mighty powerful tool. He was surely blessed. And I'm sure his mom worked overtime in the angel duties. And Cameron's wife Naomi has been his great support through all of this. She is wonderful!
Well, Christmas is a week away and I hope everyone is well this Christmas season. I love Christmas time!
Love and merry Christmas to you all!
P.S. DON'T LOOK IN THE CLOSET!
