This is the Great Adventure

Life is a HOOT!

Monday, Monday!

This weekend I finished up my grad class and all of the projects. That was a huge relief. It is so funny how your brain can’t really make sense of the written word during a time like this. I squeezed out what was in there to finish up and there wasn’t much left. I was able then to sleep like a baby come Sat. night and most of the day Sunday. I could not stay awake during the Cowboy game but I did manage to wake up with 2:17 left to go, so in reality I saw the whole game. It wasn’t pretty but it was a W!

After class, I went to lunch with some of the girls from class, then I went to do a little retail therapy. I went to Garden Ridge just to walk around mainly, bad time to go on Sat. afternoon but it was mentally relaxing. But then on the way back home I just happened to stop off at Grubb’s Nissan in Bedford. Well….guess what??? Yes. I did it…..I came home with a brick red…Tuscan Sun…to be exact….07 Maxima!!! It was so fun making the purchase. If you need a new or used car, go see the guys at Grubb’s. See Bill McKenzie or Wayne Rhew both of them are good guys and will take care of you. No, I didn’t get paid for that endorsement!!! I just owed Bill a mention since on the blog for March 14, 2007 he was mentioned but not by name!

This week starts the bill figuring out. Death certificates came in on Friday, so that enables me to get going on all the paperwork end. By the way, each death cert. costs $45 dollars and they recommend you get 7-10 of them. That is crazy! It takes a lot of money to leave this world. You guys need to be ready!

Katie and I have had over 1 million…well…maybe not that many… invites to Thanksgiving. We are starting to feel like just sitting here in our comfy sweats eating Boston Market sounds like a good plan.  If you have invited and we don’t attend don’t be offended. 

Sorry today is so random…I think this is my brain still on shut down mode. Anyway. I feel like Brad is still right here with me. I miss him and his cutting up and laughing but he is laughing his way in Heaven and how could I not wish that for him. Again…we will be ok. I know that now on this side of his death. Before I didn’t want to ponder this side too much but I think he would be proud of us.
