So, Who do YOU know?
I got a call today . . . . . A friend (ex-sister in law) was sent home from the hospital to be on hospice. She is a vibrant, caring 39 year old woman (mother to an 8 year old girl, wife, friend, boss, co-worker - all the aspects a woman can be) who was diagnosed on August 16, 2011 with colon cancer.

What is that SMELL????
Ok, I work with some weird stuff but I just had to move some test samples from the oven to cool and they smelled bad! It reminded me of a horse barn and not in the good clean smell of a horse barn but more in the stall shoveling duties of the barn. Considering that the fluid is a hydraulic oil, that's a very weird…

SCARRY DREAMS
Last night I received a wake up call in the form of a terrified scream from my son. I went in to check on him and he held on tight and would not let go when I got to his crib. I rocked him and snuggled him and he went back to sleep peacefully. Since he can't tell me I think that he had a bad dream. It made me wonder what…
