Rough Week

1. I just learned that you should never hit escape while trying to type up a blog. Suddenly everything is gone, and you can't get it back.

2. Jenna Saunders has Hodgkin's Disease, so she will be going through six months of chemotherapy. She's an incredibly tough girl, I know she'll do just fine, but it's still hard to think about.

3. A couple in my ward that I babysit for called Sunday night so I could watch the kids while they went to the hospital. She was about 24 weeks pregnant, and had really bad pains. Her last C-section (done nearly a year ago) wasn't holding, and her uterus burst, basically, so there was a big emergency, and the new baby was born live, but only for about 10 minutes. I'm glad I was there to help with the kids (I was there from 11 PM to 3 PM the next day), but it's tough to think about.

4. The Flames lost game seven. We were all SO CLOSE and the entire country was cheering for them, but we lost 2 to 1. Tampa Bay won't appreciate the Stanley Cup like we would, but they've got it anyway.

5. The weddings are coming up, and I can't be there! We all know this, and have known for a while, but it doesn't make it any easier as the big days draw near. I would like to see everyone (especially the babies!), but I can't. At least Mom and Dad and Emily and Clarissa are coming to see me next month.

So, in conclusion.. I'm kinda emotionally drained, and little things (like skirt measurements) really don't matter to me right now. (I will get to them eventually though, Mom.) I love you all though, and the rest of my life is going well... Jason and I are strong and healthy and staying afloat.

love,
mindy
