I am losing my mind

Brendan tells me a lot lately that I am losing my mind. Yesterday I was in the bathroom getting ready for work and Brendan was in there with me I had to ask him if he seen me put on deodarent cause I couldn't remember that I put it on like 30 seconds earlier. I ask him the same things over and over again cause I don't remember that I just barely asked. I know I always have the intention of asking, but I just can't remember if I actually did. But last night I realized that I am losing my mind. I look forward to Monday nights all week cause "The Bachelor" is on. I love this show. It comes on at a horrible time so I set the VCR to record it usually before I go to work just in case I don't make it home in time. (I know we still have to do it the old fashion way, but usually it is fine) Yesterday I forgot to set in the morning so I was kind of freaking out all day that I wouldn't make it home in time, but luckily I got home about 6:45 so when I got home I immediately set the VCR and went off to get dinner ready. We got kids in bed and were just waiting for the show to end recording so we could start watching it. It was a little after 9:00 when I started the show when I found out that I recorded two hours worth of THE ANTIQUE ROADSHOW. Not only was I pissed, but Brendan was pretty upset with me too. I did not sleep very good last night cause I could not believe that I would do something like that. I live for this show all week. I was telling everyone at work that I was so excited for tonight and that I had a date with Jason. Luckily though Nicole is coming to our rescue cause she is way into the show too and she records it. So Brendan called her to tell her to not erase it. We are going down there on Sunday so I am going to be on edge until then afraid that some how I am going to find out what happened last night. So if you watched it please don't let me know what happened. On a good note the reason why we are going to Nicole's house is cause it is just a stop on our way to Disneyland. It is one of my favorite places to go. We always have so much fun.

Ok so I was told I need to update since it has been awhile, but I have just been really busy lately for a couple of reasons. I have been wanting to write a post about my brother's wife's brother (hopefully that isn't confusing) but I just didn't really know what to put until today. This boy has been battling cancer for about a year and a half. He found out that he had bone cancer the june after he got out of high school. They started right away on chemo and then they removed the tumor from his hip. The next April he was supposed to be done with chemo and he was so looking forward to it cause chemo was pretty rough on him. He would get really sick, he couldn't eat cause his mouth would just be full of sores, and he lost a lot of weight. I think he maybe had a month left of his chemo when they found another tumor. This time it was in his lung. So he had to go through some more chemo and another surgery. Anyways this poor kid went through alot of different types of treatments and surgery this past year and a half and two weeks ago the doctors finally told him that they were so sorry but there was nothing else they could do. And sadly, he passed away today. I feel so sad for his family cause he will be deeply missed, but I know without a doubt he is in such a better place. A couple of days after the doctors had told them that there was nothing else they could do he was able to go through the temple and receive his own endowments. I guess he just loved it he was telling his family that there was only two times since he had cancer that he wasn't in pain. One time was when he was able to go deer hunting and he shot a deer and the other was when he was in the temple. He went through on a Thursday and the next day they were able to go to the Draper temple's open house and then the next day he went downhill from there. I know that Heavenly Father blessed him so that he could take care of those last few things while he was on this earth. These past few weeks had really made me realize what is important in life and how precious our families are. His family is such a close family with such a strong testimony that I know, that they know, they will see him again, and what a blessing that is to have that knowledge of eternal families.
