Saying So Long
A friend sent me the photo from above. I guess it kind of applies to last year and how we plan to live our life this year.
Looking forward to 2013 and what it has to offer.

Just one of those weeks!
Have you ever had a week that you just knew probably wouldn't go right? Apparently 2 times for shingles isn't enough for me - nope onto the 3rd time. I am trying the relaxation method to deal with the symptoms.
I have also signed up for a class for the paper. This class is very physical and mentally draining - what was I thinking? Added stress for the shingles.
AJ has had a busy week. Saturday he had two soccer games with a third planned for Sunday afternoon. Since it was Sweetest Day we offered to keep him overnight. He wanted to go to El Sombrero's for dinner (which he has eaten at since he was born). When we got home Jeff and AJ were going to kick the soccer ball around (like he hadn't done that all day). I noticed him touching his chest a few times so I called it quits for the night. Figured he needed his inhaler with the activity he had that day. He came in and complained that his chest hurt. Next he couldn't breathe. Gave him 4 puffs of the inhaler and he kept holding his chest and complaining his heart really, really hurt. He seemed to be struggling to breathe so I had him sit on my lap. It felt like his heart was beating out of his chest. I took his shirt off and saw that his body was covered with welts. After trying to check his pulse and I couldn't count that fast. I decided to call Mom and Dad.
Bottom line, AJ got to take his first ride via emergency squad to the hospital. Scared all of us. Spent 6 hours at Children and finally got to come home (once again - awesome if you have shingles).
Dr wants to check his heart tomorrow to make sure there is no permanent damage done. AJ is a fighter and we are very proud of him.
I am so glad that Jeff backed out of Crankenstein. I don't think either one of us was up for it this year. I guess the leg problem was a blessing after all.

Jeff found a way to squeeze his bike in the car and was able to get great riding in on Sunday. He said the countryside is beautiful and very hilly.
I think this course is a little harder on the brain than he expected. He is enjoying meeting new people and seeing a new place.
He returns on Friday and will have to rest :-) He as an old friend coming to town that is looking forward to torturing him on the bike next week.
I won't address more recent drama that has been copied and pasted to me in an email. I appreciate you also being angry, but honestly, we no longer give a shit. I am happy Jeff doesn't have a computer with him, he would blow a gasket and probably say somethings that he shouldn't
Addressing one issue - believe it or not, I don't think for Jeff - he thinks for himself. He askes me to make comments or answer something. I type it, read it and then send.
He has lost a couple of friends through all of this but realized maybe they weren't the friends he thought that the were.
So enough said .....

Vacation?
Jeff has been on vacation this week. The plan was to paint the trim on the house ...... my new car had a scratch on the hood which required a trip to the body shop. It has rained so the wood on the house has been too wet to paint. AJ started school this week. So.......Jeff has been at AJ's house every morning this week taking him to school and having lunch with him,
So what does them mean ----- lots of time on the bike training for upcoming events. When riding alone - you have nobody to depend on but yourself. He misses riding with Mark, but hopefully with quick healing, Mark will be back.
We will be heading to south for Thanksgiving, the plan is both of us to take our bikes while the rest enjoy the southern popular spots.
