I can't believe he was that disrespectful, but then again, he did say he was homeless and was looking for a safe place to get clean off of methamphetamines and I believed him! He disappeared the same day my camera did.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;Thank you Andy for sending Beckie's clothes for mom.

Mom and I were planning to go over and meet our neighbors at Lake Wenatchee but I'm not sure if we'll make it or not.  Maybe in a while.....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;I talked to Danny, Uncle Jerry, and dad yesterday.  Dad's doing all right- his back has him one step away from a wheelchair.  He has advanced degenerative arthritis they didn't catch because the pain was assumed to be from chemo until it was stopped and the pain worstened- that's when they found the arthritis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;Uncles Larry and Jerry successfully turned 70 on the 21st of this month.  They are obnoxiously cute as usual!  I'm looking for a few pictures of them and will post them when I do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;Danny finally mentioned a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;girlfriend!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;  I wonder when I get to meet her!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;I think I'll watch those podcasts he's been wanting me to watch on relativity and special relativity- I think that's what they were about!  He's got some very curious questions about the sun and the amount of oxygen it contains and how he doesn't believe there's enough oxygen to keep the sun burning.....  Fascinating; anyone have input on that?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;Kim's working at Home Depot now and loving it!  I'm so glad she quit the Chevron!  They were about to use her all up with nothing left over for her family.  Way to go Kim!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;I, of course, still have not found my camera.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;JOSH VALENTINE SHOULD HAVE A SHARP BITE ON THE ASS COMING WHEN KHARMA CATCHES UP WITH HIM!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;I'm going to finish this posting in a new one because I'm having a problem with this stupid font sizing.

I'm going to download them here if I can.  That would be cool!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;If you like the flash header on top of this page, just click on the header itself and it'll take you to the website where they let you create your own flash headers for free!  Of course like any other free offer they also have some reasonably priced memberships to offer if you're interested. But if you do sign up through clicking on my header, I'll get credit!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;I had so much fun with the software that I wanted more.  The free membership gives you three headers to create and use at one time.  I think they made a huge difference on all my blogs, and I really need traffic to some of them!  Anyway, about the headers-- I decided to get the Silver Membership so I could create and use up to  25 at a time!  I've been creating since and having a great time doing it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;With Free Flash Headers you automatically get a coded link with an affiliate code built in, so when anyone uses your personalized link to go to their website and signs up, you get credit!  They explain it very thoroughly, so have a look if you want.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;...About My Dad...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Now that he's completely done with the chemotherapy, he's discovered his back pain (assumed to be chemo-related) is actually caused by severe degenerative disc disease in his lower spine.  He's now just one step away from a permanent wheelchair; he's become too weak to walk with it getting more painful by the day.  I'm scared for him- the one thing he had going for him more than anything had been his lack of pain.  But the degenerative arthritis got to him instead.  He's one tough man!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;I wish he had more family support.  He has his brothers Larry &amp;amp; Jerry and me, and he knows he has three granddaughters that love him very much and a grandson that's in the navy and would be over to see him if he could.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;It won't be too long now, I have a feeling.  He's been sounding so much weaker and I can tell when he's hurting.  I just don't want him to suffer!!  I am very thankful for these opportunities I've had, being able to talk with him repeatedly knowing I'm talking to a sober man and that it's really my dad.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;I'll write more later.....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 102);font-family:verdana;" &gt;Until then, enjoy the pictures and comment for me.
