Good News

The eye doctor called yesterday. Camie's CT-scan came back clear. No tumors, no nothing. Well, the brain was there, but you know what I mean. So the doc wants to see her later this week to take another look at her eyes and see what the next step will be. Very good news, though.

Gonna drive up to Eureka tomorrow. My brother and his fiance are to be married on Thursday, so I'm gonna drive up and stand in as a witness/bestman, then drive back home Thursday night. I'm excited not just to see my brother, but to take pictures!!! Mwwaahahaha! There's some stunning countryside along Highway 101. It doesn't hug the coast like Highway 1 does, but as you get closer to Eureka, it does go right near the coast. The mountains along that stretch are just majestic. The redwoods are awesome. And I see the weather should be clear for those two days. If my dad feels up to it, he's going to come along. It just depends on how long he thinks he can sit in the car, what with his hip-replacement.

So, I'll talk to you again probably Saturday. Be safe everyone.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter folks. Or as they used to call it waaaaaaaaaaay back in the beginning... Resurrection Day.

I just got back from the kids' mom's house, where I had the most yummy Easter dinner with Cathy, Dan, and the kids. For those of you who don't know, Cathy is my x-wife (kids' mom), and Dan is her boyfriend. I am so glad we are all able to get along as well as we do. It's been such a blessing for all of us to be able to sit down to dinner and have a good conversation without fighting. They've both been very gracious and included me in their holiday dinner plans, even though they don't have to. Whether they feel sorry for me being alone, or they just want to make sure the kids have everyone there for holidays, it's been really nice, and, if they ever read this, I just wanted to say a public thanks.

Besides, Cathy has always been a real good cook, and if I had to suffer the cooking of my own hands ALL the time, I'd be really sad.
