Life has been very busy these days...and very sad at times. On Saturday one of my colleagues, Bobbi, lost her battle with cancer. It was a tough battle for her these past few months, and I know that she will be missed. Four of her family members work for Darrell, so he will join me at her service on Friday.

She hated having her picture taken, but I was able to snap this shot of her about 18 months ago prior to her cancer.
Knowing that Mom O. is fading away is difficult as well. It's been weighing on our minds a lot these days as we have been spending a considerable amount of time with her. In addition to her lung disease, she fell and broke her hip in two places. She is confined to a hospital bed as the doctors would not operate due to the serious risks involved. Her lung capacity is less than 10% now, and this recent fall doesn't help matters for her. However, she still really enjoys having company and maintains her sense of humor at times. I know that she isn't very comfortable due to her breathing and the pain as a result of the double break, but she continues to hang in there.
Here I am with Mom O.
After a recent visit to the hospice house, Cheryl, Mike, and I visited our local Cherry Berry.
It is SO yummy!!!
Don't you just love kids?!
Cute little red-headed Rachel was being a little shy when I snapped this photo while a very excited Luke came to show me his new tractor last week.
My first meeting with Jamison...what a doll!!

Someday I'd like to lay by the warm fireplace too!!
