Rough Week

The first week of April was so nice Jeff and I had the week off and we got to spend some quality time with the kids. I am always so grateful for the time that I get to spend with them, and LOVE every moment. So on Monday morning, my first day back to work, my good friend from the office Sandy called me on my cell phone before I got to work. I though what's wrong why am I getting a phone call from her before I even arrived to work. Well, Sandy told me that our dear friend Barbara's husband John passed away that morning. So she needed her home number so that she could get details of just what happened. Sandy called Barbara and did not get an answer. I sent her a text message when I got to work telling her that I just heard what happened and to make sure she was ok. So that was Monday. On Wednesday morning I get to work and receive an e-mail that states Steve McCann's passing. I think to myself Holy Shit this can not be right, but it was real. Steve is one of my good friends here at the office. He is our IT guy. He is also one the kindest most thoughtful people that I know. We had a meeting to talk about what has happened and were told that there are people to talk to if we need it. So all week my heart is breaking for Barbara and her family for their loss of their husband and father and also for Steve's family for the loss of shuch a great man. Things like this make me think and wonder if I do enough in my life right now to show just how much that I care for the people in my life. I want to know if I do pass on that I can say "Yeah, I have done what God has asked of me and helped others in need and treated people the way they should have been treated." I know that I am the harshest judge of myself. I know that I do a lot of positive things. It's just at times like this your stop and think am I doing enough.  I have made some goals to make myself a little better and move forward in life instead of sitting in limbo doing nothing. I want to make sure that I leave my imprint. Any how, that was my week last week. Thanks for letting me share this experience with you. Read the next two posts. They are happy and fun :)
