the weekend was so wonderful (and lovingly hot). you all know how awesome friday was at the boys show but what you don't know is how awesome going to lincoln was.
seeing my dad pick up my nephew ethan and carrying him into stake n shake, him bending down and picking up a remote, and him driving.... it's the simple things you know? he's doing well- better than well and my only worries now is how depressed he maybe at the moment. i think that could be a number of things- he gained some weight and most of all he got a letter from the donor's family.
i don't want to say much about the donor only that he was younger than me and his name was Kyle (i don't know much more than that anyway).
dad is okay. dad is dad. dad is here for a while and for once i'm not scared.
also this link is for my sister, it's to my flickr "my photo diary site"-

wow
thanks to doug i am having one of the best weekends in a very very long time.
friday we went to evanston to view a polaroid exhibit- then we went to world market and borders to hang.
saturday (yesterdays) so so fun!
doug took me to an estate sale, a craft show and to the international photobooth convention. the convention was awesome, we didn't stay long because we also went to see ian's dad in a play- but we were able to watch a video of how the photobooth works while you are standing there waiting for three minutes. it was awesome. also the photobooths were free and although i wanted to take a 100 strips like the family that was there driving everyone nuts.... we only walked a way with 6- because really that was enough.
sunday (today) we are having easter dinner with doug's mom and family. i'm excited to finally meet our new nephew (of amy. L) and hang out.
yup, it's been one awesome weekend- how about yours?

hi.
so i kinda left thing really bitter here.
things are still hard, shit still is happening but whatever... there's a lot that's good too.
calling my mom once a week has been a really good thing. even though it takes a lot of energy to call her once i do i never really wish i didn't. some day we'll get to the point were i will drive down to just spend a whole day with her.... well that's my goal.
dad had his first birthday with his new heart on the 13th (yeah.. friday the 13th. he loves pointing that out every time it happens). dad has been doing very well. i suppose he had a good week, my sisters took him out to eat on different nights and then mom took him out on his birthday- so he got 3 dinners for free he likes to say. he is a little moody from his medication but he is aware of it so he tries his hardest not to lash out.
i don't know what else to say.
