Of all the Charles in my life...my Dad was the first.

My Dad, Barb, Mary, Beth, Mike and Pat. We are all just a year apart, me being the oldest.
Thanks to everyone who has helped me worry about my Dad , click here for a link to his blog with his story and pictures. He received his new fancy shmancy pacemaker last night. All went well and he gets to go home today if he had a good night.
I have a lot of Charles in my life. My Dad (Charles Oliver Feigleson), my husband (Charles Jeffrey Zollinger), my father-in-law, (Charles Walters Zollinger), my nephew (Charles Jacob Allen), Jeff's son (Charles Matthew Zollinger), grandson (Charles Floyd Jones). Help me out if I forgot any. Charles comes with lots of nicknames. Chuck, Charley, Chucky.
We had planned to go to Boise this weekend to see the kids over there. However the weather is not great. It is snowing like crazy here. They predicted an inch here but it is coming down pretty hard.The tree branches are hanging low from the weight of it. We are going to go to Idaho Falls and see the Benjamin Button movie with Brad Pitt. Take the day off and be lazy. That rarely happens around here.
Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers. Thanks to my Dad for pulling through in his typical no nonsense manner and Barb for taking such wonderful care of him.

Sigh

Sorry my computer has been at the computer hospital for a while. I have it back and it is only moderately better. Life has been ....well challenging. I am thinking today maybe I need a very long break in what I do. Come to think of it I am not sure what I do. Seems like it is an uphill battle in many ways. So with all that said I remind myself of one of Jeff's famous sayings...

"you get to choose how you feel."

My Dad is in a ICU in Lodi California. I am back and forth on flying out there. I think he will be OK. He is having a pacemaker put in tomorrow. Dad has never been sick so it is kind of new territory. For tonight I have decided to stay home. Stressful all the same.

Sigh!
