What’s Happening

Friday, January 30th, 2004

Jan, 30th 2004
A nurse that works in ICU, 58 died in ICU. It was so sad. She was very nice. It has drained us all.
My Aunt went in for a biopsy, and her lung collapsed, but she is okay now.
My new puppy, Frisket’s son, LUCKY, opened his eyes and is precious.
They started remodeling at work, and that’s nice.
Brian got a job!!! It is 85% travel, but a good company!
Tena and Dale Floyd ( very loving couple who, took Charles into their home in his last days). We went out to eat Korean Food. It was good seeing them.
Fran is still visiting and cleaning constantly. I wish I had some of that drive.
Jodi is still working at Poliform, and working on the remodeling at the Oaks. She bought a new car, Jetta.
James still loves carpentry, and is remodeling the upstairs of his parents house in Athens. It has calico colored shag carpet- the results are amazing. He installed a shiny, wooden floor, with some help by Jimmy and Brian.

only in America

Sunday, January 4th, 2004

It is only in America that a person like myself, would have a website, a blog, to write about stuff I know. A partially educated person, a Bachelors degree from a State college( the south!). However, I started it, because my gifted son set it up when I went to Italy. I had all these photos. The thing is though, he knows the internet facinates me. I don’t have my little sister to talk to for hours, I am separated, and it has become a hobbie.***It has become therapeutic. ***I have thought there are others. I know, that would be great at this, they are so intelligent, and occassionally spill their guts about personal stuff or feelings, that I find fascinating. One is my Uncle Lamar and the other is father n Law Bill Quinn ( I guess they consider I am ex). James Kung would be fascinating to others, but I already know a lot about him. He is Chinese, grew up in Korea, living above a store. His Dad was a teacher, but I can’t imagine( he hardly ever speaks). His family moved here when he was 9. He was pretty isolated, with his parents at work all day in a Chinese Restaurant 324 days a year.However, he will talk your ear off if you get to know him. He is very competative, he beats everyone at ping pong, basketball, and can beat everyone at scrabble but my Dad. It seems that some people are born with more brain cells. However, growing up in rural south will educate you enough to get by, and to have plenty to write about. That will be another story.
