What can I say? It has been a few weeks from Hell, I guess. First off we got the bad news about my brother and sister-in-law. What a shock that was to my system. I think I am still a little dumbfounded by it, but what can I say. I don't live with them, and don't know what goes on behind closed doors, but I do feel pretty close to both of them. Which makes me believe that Chad is running from his own lies since he is sick of dealing with them. I love them both dearly and I can't even imagine Melissa out of my life. So, I am doing everything I can to let her know that I am not going anywhere. We can still be close regardless of the outcome of her marriage. I do hope my brother looks outside of his box and is willing to make efforts to change himself too. As that is where I see the change is needed the most. Keep your fingers crossed.
We also got some bad news about Luke's Dad. He is very sick and not sure what the future holds. He has cancer. I think he will be a trooper and make the best of what it is, but it is still a lot to take in. I am not sure how much the big guy thinks we can handle, but apparently we can handle a lot! So, say a little prayer and hopefully that will take us well into next year or years. :)
On a lighter note, we have our 6th anniversary on Sunday. We are heading to the Chanhassen Dinner theater on Saturday night to see the Producers. This is something that Luke has wanted to do for a few years and we just never did it. So, I finally broke down and got tickets. Thanks to my dear friend Trudy who got us a discount. I think this is something we are going to try and do more often as Luke does enjoy it. Hopefully it will be a good time.
