 Another Birth Announcement Open in new Window. (E)
We now have a granddaughter. Wrote a Limerick for my grandson 2 years ago, now one for her
Check it out. Wish I could post pictures of her.

Time for the Big Announcement. I'm not going to change my handle or anything like that. Son and Son's Girlfriend (How her parents knew to name her that, I'll never know) got Mom and me together last week and made an announcement. *Bottle* Yup. Mom and I are going to be grandparents! *Teddy* The baby is due in late March or early April *Shamrock* (around St. Pat's Day). Son and Son's Girlfriend (who has sworn to change her name to Daughter-in-Law when she and son get married) plan on getting married, but not sure when.
Congrats! I bet you can't wait.
Er...I just realised this is old news. So how's the babe doing? And how come you havent written in your notebook so I have something to read? Haha. Jk :^)
Congratulations to you and your family!

I'm a little late writing this. Please forgive me. it was 2 years ago this week that Jojo was diagnosed. hardly seems like it. Today, he is a vivacious, normal 9 year old who happens to have leukemia. He is in remission, and has at least a year of treatments to go. He must be tested for the rest of his life. But he is normally in good sprits, good health (as good as a leukemia patient can be). Thank you for all your continued thoughts and prayers. He's a fighter. He'll whip this.

Got to see Niece #1's (aka Goddaughter) sonogram. *BabyBoy* *Bottle* *PaciP* *Teddy* Baby is due Jan 26. My sister's (Aunt) 1st grandchild, my parents' 2nd great. (Uncle, who is actually younger than me and Aunt, is a grandpa.) Very proud of Niece #1. *Cool*

In loving memory of Paul, my father-in-law. Feb 6, 1930 - May 6, 2013. *Cry* He'll know what I mean by this: *Watch*
Sorry to hear of your loss and yet happy to hear that you have enjoyed a close family
What did you mean by this--*Watch* ? Or should I ask?
Dad  Author Icon
Paul knows.

I voted last Sunday. Talked to a lady today who asked if I voted. I said yes. She then asked if I'd voted right. What the hell did the damned fool expect me to say? No, I didn't vote for the right candidate? Oh, damn, maybe they'll let me vote again? Where the hell do we get these damned fool? We definitely get the government we deserve! Argh!
Dad  Author Icon
In that case, you are a better person than I am. I'd'a said something like, "If that how you feel, then you're damned right we don't need your vote!" Be glad you weren't in South Florida. Get in line at 6 PM, vote at 1 AM. Just proves when it comes to voting, we can really screw it up!
Lucky for us, it was just right , except when the air conditioner came on. So then later it was stuffy in such a little room with so many people inside and the air conditioner was off. Must be automatic.
We had about nine booths so we put three outside so people didn't have wait so long. There was a lot of provisional voters who dropped their ballots off.

My cute little cousin's daughter graduated from high school yesterday. My cute little cousin's DAUGHTER graduated from high school yesterday. Her DAUGHTER! My cute little cousin is just a little girl herself! How the hell did I get this damned old?????
I'm in the same boat. You reminded me of this song from fiddler on the roof. Don't listen to it tho' cuz it's depressing.

Jojo had a chemo treatment on Saturday. then they had to bust ass to go from Jacksonville to Daytona. He had a 15 minute meet-and-greet with JEFF GORDON!!! The boy was pickled tink. I didn't get to go. It almost made me wish I had leukemia. Then reality set in. I'd gladly change places with Jojo, but only so My Little Bubba didn't have to go thru the s*** he's going through.
Aww. That's so nice! I'm glad to hear he's doing all right, though.
I hope the chemo was successful.

Does he want to be a race-car driver now? Or is he a little older than that phase?
Dad  Author Icon
He doesn't know what he wants to do. Yeah, race car driver would be good. Probably a good 2000 other things, too. Yes, the chemo was successful. Thank you for asking.
