Thoughts/Prayers Needed =)

This is going to be a very difficult week, for a number of reasons - but the most important thing for me right now is to make sure I have some thoughts/prayers headed towards Texas.

The only woman who ever acted like a mother to me is having surgery on Thursday. She's had a number of health problems and I am going crazy because I can't be there with her and my dad.

Thoughts/prayers/chants/rain dances - whatever works for you...that'd be great.

If you can throw out something tiny for me too - I have a very big important day tomorrow and could use some positive energy to help me stay strong and do what I know I need to do - even though it's not what I want to do.

Thank you everyone!

Good thoughts coming your way Brandy.

2-16-2009 I got a promotion, that comes with a raise. Mom and Dad are visiting and we're going to Al's for pie to celebrate.
4-27-2009 Dad surprises me with a Lady Ugly Stick (an awesome fishing rod that is pink) and a 2nd Iowa Light Artillery Battery jacket. I'm a lucky girl!
5-30-2009 Kiddo turns five. It is hard to believe he is that old already, it seems like just yesterday he was being born. I was at peace for the first time on his birthday, what a nice feeling.
6-13&14 2009 A cannon live fire in Casper WY. We got third place and I got to see Devil's Tower for the first time, it was pretty awesome.
7-4-2009 Amelia the kitten comes to live with me and Liz. Talk about jealousy, Liz will adjust though.

Thanks everyone.

My 'big thing' went off without a hitch this morning. Strength wasn't even an issue, and I'm not sure how that makes me feel at this point.

Thanks again everyone!
