you imagine?? 60 years with the same person?! I have to say, I love my
grandparents with all of my heart and if I could have half the marriage they
have had, I would be beyond lucky. I just spent this last weekend in Seattle
and it was bittersweet. The sweet being the time I spent with my family,
friends, and being home. The bitter being the fact that I had to clean up my
condo in which my renters totally trashed. It boggles my mind how some people
live...really..my mind just can't wrap around the fact that people can reside
in absolute filth. I scrubbed for two days and with the help of my sister and
friend...it still isn't done. Now comes the hard decision to sell or try and
rent again...seems like an easy choice. SELL right?! Well, like everyone else
in this economy, my place has dropped value like a rock going to the bottom of
the pool! Well, I get back up here to ANC thinking at least I'm back home, I
can rest a bit right? NO...this week has been so filled with angst, worry, and
tragedy that I feel sick. We lost Ted Stevens in a plane crash and the whole
state is in an uproar. Not to mention people in this office are crying and
sobbing all day long. To add to the misery, one of our well loved and respected
pilots here at Alaska Airlines was the one flying the plane and he also
perished. This man's daughter whom I think is near my age, just lost her
husband in the C-17 crash and now her dad in this separate crash. It's
absolutely heartbreaking and I can't even imagine what this family must be
going through.
Well, we're almost done with this week and I can't wait...I need a little break
from reality I think..time to check out!
