QUICK UPDATE: I'll blog more for Friday. Went to visit Tammy in
the hospital today. She is looking and feeling great! Seriously it is
amazing what medicine can do (and a hot doctor of course - LOL).
Also, something else going on I can't talk about right now. It is
good though and not that big. :)  More Friday.

I've gotten some emails from you asking where Tammy Oakland
is...no she is NOT being stashed away. Check out her My Space and
you'll get everything you need! But I can tell you she is doing
GOOD!!

My woes seem to be over. Brought Steven to the park today and
was a little tired but we had some GREAT father-son time. I just
bought a basketball to get a little exercise when we make our trek
to the park and he likes to tell me to SHOOT and then when I make
it he says NICE. Though, he says NICE when I miss too! LOL.

Anyway I am shooting and he says "my turn" and just throws the
ball up. The shootaround ended when he scraped the heck out of
his knee and said "mama". I was like...walk it off boy!! Ha. We left
right after the injury.

















Things are going well at the station. Lots of busy work to fill the
day up. Tammy does a lot and I am just picking up some of the
pieces for her. I must say she is a very dedicated person and
sometimes I feel like I'm looking in the mirror...except she is a
blonde...with long hair...and, oh yeah, a girl. Ha ha.

I've noticed that people think I am really nice (truly they do!) and I
really take that to heart lately. See, I heard all of my mom's
friends/fellow employees talk about how great she was and it
REALLY made me change the way I approach life. I'm trying (said
trying) to not sweat the little stuff and get caught up in a lot of
things that will eat you up. Dig?

And the most upsetting thing for me...and please as my family I am
OK so relax...is that I can't look at pictures of her. I just can't. My
little brother has a picture of him and my mom up in his living room
and I am JEALOUS of that. I think that there is a long way to go. I
think of her all the time and miss her so much it hurts my heart to
no end. Sometimes my son Steven, or Adam, will do something that
reminds me of her and it makes me happy. I just know.























Well...now that I brought the room down. :) It's a picture but on my
website.

See you soon,
