Still new

Well, I figured I should write again - the blog thing is still new and I'm excited to do it. I figured out what to blog about - this morning I got up and as I'm walking downstairs I smell the candle I was burning last night....And ALL NIGHT. Yes ladies, I forgot to blow them out. I had lite the one in the bathroom (I ususally keep tea lights in there because they have a shorter burn time) but I had this candle I wanted to use up...Well it's almost gone. Thank goodness I saw it instead of my husband because if he had found it I would have gotten the lecture about 'what am I trying to do, burn the house down'. Like I do this stuff on purpose.
Tonite and tomorrow I'm doing something I don't want to do. One of the girls I coached when I was a cheerleader died. I coached cheerleading when Sarah was in 6th thru 8th grade and then Sarah cheered with her in high school. She was 22 on Christmas day. Her Mom found her dead in her bed on Friday morning. Can you believe it? They don't know the cause yet, they are doing an autopsy. My heart is breaking. This is the 4th kid Sarah's age that has died in the past year. So, just keep my friend Marge in your prayers and the she finds the strength to get thru this.
