I’m still dealing with a scratchy throat and cough. This has been a very busy week at work and I’ve been pretty emotionally drained by the death of my son’s friend. I guess I just wasn’t ready to deal with the loss of another one of those guys. My son is going to be able to go to his funeral up in Ohio.

I am sorry to hear about the loss of your son's friend. Those times are never easy, but somehow we make it through. I am glad to hear that your throat is feeling better. With these drastic changes in weather here in Texas, it's no wonder we all aren't coming down with something. Just a couple of days ago in Houston it was 80, and this morning's low was in the 30's, go figure.
