Hi all. Hope everyone is doing well. I haven't had much time to log-in lately, my new 3rd shift job and trying to sleep and take care of chores plus go watch my kids play sports during the day and evening is taking up most of my time (ironically, I took this job to get away from working weekends, but we've had to work at least one and sometimes both days almost every week since I've been at the new job). I hope to get back to posting a little more regularly eventually, but right now is not a good time...
Not a good time, because this week my wife was diagnosed with AML or acute myeloid leukemia. She's only 37. We are in a hospital in Pittsburgh, PA (to give all you Pennsylvania members an idea where we're at in the state) and she begins chemotherapy this evening. She will be here approximately 4 weeks, plus after that there will be assorted follow up visits, treatments, etc. I'm trying to keep it together emotionally, because we've been together about 16 years and our daughters are only 6 and 9 years old. Please send prayers, good thoughts, vibes, whatever it is you do our way.

Good luck with the interview Augi. I so wish the company that contacted me would call me in for an interview - like you I could be making 10k more a year.

Soooo sorry to hear about your wife Kerry. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
