She died the night after Christmas, at 12:05. I'm still kinda in shock. Uncle Brian seems to be doing okay. When my dad (his brother) called him back, he was able to laugh about things. (My dad is good at cheering people up.) I pray for his life continuing with peace and joy.

March tenth--that's Pisces. The same as George Harrison! *LOL* I had a great Christmas. Together, Kestrel and I got ELEVEN new Neil Young CDs! We're both in heaven. We hadn't heard any of them before--oh, except for Sleeps With Angels. It's an amazing album. There's this one song called "Change Your Mind" which is 14 minutes long! It's about someone REALLY hooked on some drug--probably heroin, it's the most addictive--and the singer is trying to make them 'change their mind'. The first verse and chorus go:
When you get weak
And you need to test your will
Life's complete
But there's somethin' missin' still
Distracting you from this
Must be the one you love
Must be the one who's magic touch
Can change your mind
Don't let another day go by
Without the magic touch

Distracting you (Change your mind)
Supporting you (Change your mind)
Embracing you (Change your mind)
Convincing you (Change your mind)

Wow. He's just incredible.
Love, Chris

She's ok. She turned right at a red light without stopping first. A van hit her and she needed 3 staples in her head. She totalled her car and now that she doesn't have a way of transportation she has to quit her job, but thats all actually considered good news when you think about how much worse it could have been. Especially with her condition. Anyway, I'm terribly sorry about your aunt. We've recieved bad news in our house hold having our enemy be cancer as well. My mums cousin, who also was her room mate in college and a bridesmaid at my parents wedding is dying of cancer. Her name is Diane. She's 44 and the cancer is completely spread throughout her body - even in her lungs. They've given her the most powerful dose of chemo out there - so strong that she can only go through it once without having it kill her. Even with this chemo they only give her a 5-15% chance of surviving the cancer. That news is sad enough in its self, but she also has a severely handicapped son whose 16 or 17 and in a wheel chair. He'll be dependant on others for life. She also has a son in 5th grade. It's good that your uncle Brian is handling it so well. I'm sure it helps to know he has his brother and family right there for him through this all.
Haha, so is George a Picses or is his birthday march 10th too? Wow, I'm shocked that someone around my age knows their beatle trivia better than I do! Well now I have to get you on something.... ok, what's the beatles longest recorded song and how long is it?
Ahhh I g2g to moniques i'll talk to you later. That songs sounds awesome by the way. I have more to tell you but it'll have to wait!
Love Always,
Theresa

...cousin twice removed, or whatever she is! My Mom's cousin, an intelligent but very depressed woman, hanged herself on New Year's day in the barn. She left no note.

Hmm, I dunno when George's birthday is, but he's a Pisces.

OMG, that's DREADFUL about your sister...she sure seems to have bad luck. Gurg. Bad time of year.

I had the BEST RIDING LESSON IN THE UNIVERSE today! OMG, I died, I really did! I got to trot over cross-rails it was SO EXCITING! The first step to jumping, I'm just so dying with excitement. One time, after I went over the first cross-rail, Stinker got excited and started cantering! And she just about JUMPED the second one! YAHOOOO!

And what's more, Mary Kay (my instructor) was in a really good mood cause she's a grandmother! (She's 59, I think.) Her first grandchild, a girl, was born last night. I'm so happy for her.

Anyway, cya later, lotsa hugz,
