Sad News From Home

I learned yesterday that my stepdad's father passed away on Thursday. As a result, I've been keeping my mom and stepdad in my thoughts for the past couple of days. I wish it were a simple matter to drive over and visit them as a show of support, but we've got the entire country between us. It stinks.

As for us: Amy's come down with a cold, and she's napping at the moment. She probably caught it from Maddie. Stephen is celebrating a renewed interest in Thomas the Tank Engine. As for me, I'm trying my hand at cooking lasagna (quite an adventure). We'll see how it turns out in about 45 minutes.

All for now...
