A few things!

First off, I ask for your prayers for some of my extended family. My grandmother's sister passed away yesterday. It was kind of a shock to us all, as she was seemingly healthy up until about a week ago. Last week she started having flu like symptoms and things got worse over the weekend. So, Monday they took her in to have tests run and found cancer in her liver and brain, and they believe it had probably spread to her bones. She didn't have any complaints prior to last week, so the fact that she was in very little pain was good. However, nobody expected her to only live 3 more days, and her husband is taking it pretty hard. The oncologist did tell her daughter that he would have only been able to suggest a hospice nurse because chemo isn't possible with cancer in the liver. So, God blessed her in the fact that she did not have a long, painful death. So please pray for my uncle and my dad's cousins as they deal with her death and life without her.
As a side note, not only was Aunt Dot my grandmother's sister, but her husband, my Uncle Ed was my grandfather's brother. So, sisters married brothers and their children are my dad's double first cousins. Pretty neat!

In other news, I found a dress for one of the weddings in March- at Target, so a great deal! I'll post a picture on Monday and hopefully I will have purchased another one by then!

I'm heading out of town shortly to visit my childhood best friend, Joy, and her husband and son for the weekend, so I apologize for not commenting on your blogs until Monday! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!

Oh, and Go Cocks! Beat the Dukes (I think this is Duquesne's mascot). Season opener tomorrow...Let's hope for a SWEEP! And I'm also pulling for the basketball team vs. Arkansas. We need this win!!
