Thank God Wheel is in town for 2 weekends cause I just couldn't make it all the way down to SeaWorld last weekend. It was bad enough that I had to rush through work just to try to beat Elena home from her cruise before she saw the bathroom without me being there to see her reaction. Well I can say it MIGHT be the happiest I have ever seen her. She actually had tears in her eyes. I think she was more excited to see the bathroom than to see me after a week. :-)
Anyway, she absolutely loves it and wouldn't change a thing.
So this Saturday is the Wheel of Fortune thing, after work. Katie that was really funny how you wrote your comment like a puzzle, witty!
In other news I have some absolutely horrific news which I wasn't going to share until we know for sure but my mom found a lump in her other breast a week ago. She went to the doctor and he felt it too but said it's not necessarily cancer, blah blah blah. She has a mammogram scheduled for Tuesday and now Tuesday can't come fast enough. Nobody knows except me and my dad. She wasn't even going to tell us until after Tuesday but the other day she called me while I was in Goodwill with Elena and I could tell in her voice something wasn't right. So when I asked what was wrong she told me and made me swear not to tell my bros and sisters. I nearly broke down in GW and poor Elena thought someone was dead from the way I was crying.
Anyway, my mom is really kinda having a positive attitude about the whole thing and trying not to think about it(yeah right). I spent most of the day with her today and she's been pretty good. She has already scoped out a surgeon and an oncologist since her last time with this she was in NY, so she wanted to get a jump on finding good doctors here. This really fuckin sucks. I sit here and try to figure out why these things keep happening to good people, but that is time wasted.
So keep my mom in your thoughts please and I'll let you know on Tuesday what comes of her test. Love you guys!

Love you.

aye - yai - yai!!! "wheel of life" is right!!!
sometimes i get so cranky about this whole booby thing! i guess men can get breast cancer, too, but what a blow - these things that have societally come to set us apart as a gender (well, two of many) - the very thing admired by the opposite sex (atleast in our society) can be so very DANGEROUS - and yet, we have no real control - no way to consciously protect ourselves...
stay positive - maybe it'll be benign - and if it's not - she's a survivor (so much easier to say when you're not actually in the situation - hope it doesn't come off as too cliched)...
anyway, like krames - i've got two good ears for listening & a couple of shoulders for crying...
we LOVE you - we're sending good booby ju-ju your mama's way!!
That totally sucks. I remember when you were going through the first round, I really hope there isn't a second. I have double and triple crossed my fingers and toes for both of you.
On a Wheel note, glad you liked my comment, good luck!!!!!
