Random Thoughts...

• feel so bad about the loss of young Kaitlan; makes me hate ARDS more. I feel usually that things happen for a reason, but in life, there is not a single good reason I can think of for something like this.
  
  learned I have low platelets, on top of some really high thyroid levels, and a low hemoglobin... still, I am going on vacation with more energy than I have had in the last year...
  
  The face on the site just diappeared! weird. I checked the site it came from and that site is down. At least I did not somehow make it diappear.
  
  my kids and I were sitting in the 'play room' watching TV when all of a sudden, the fireworks started. But for the first time ever, they were not just noise but pretty fireworks and we could sit on our couch and see them. how great is that? the day ended quite nicely after all.
