*sigh*

I am so ready to be able to blog something good. It seems lately everything has been bad. I feel like a negative nelly:/

Today was another hearing for Ana. I was teary eyed in the beginning, because when she came in, she actually looked up, caught my eye and gave me a big smile. It was an Ana smile :*) That was different. This is the first time she has actually made eye contact. Before, she was so drugged or whatever, she just shuffled in like a zombie, not looking at anyone or anything.

The prosecution is thinking about filing "special circumstances" on her murder charge. Special circumstances means that if she is convicted, she could get life in prison without the possibility of parole, or the death penalty. The death penalty. I can't even comprehend it. She doesn't need to be killed or locked away for the rest of her life. She needs HELP.

tuesday. like monday, only a day later.

Joseph got his hair cut today. When I get the film delveloped, I'll post before and after pictures. What a difference. He doesn't look so much like Jack Osbourne now;-) He hated people saying that, but he did look like him, especially with his fedora on.

I got mine cut too. Well, trimmed anyway. There will be no before and after pics of me ;-P

Joseph has been down the street all evening talking with the Krebs kids. Dane is back home again...I guess he got in today. He was home right after Scott's accident, but had to leave last Monday.

Joseph just came in. Flo wants to take them all to Taco Bell. Normally I would say no (it's after 9) but under the circumstances, I let him go. I think it is good for the kids to have someone to talk to about *normal* stuff right now, and Flo really loves him. We've joked about he and Theresa getting married.

Tomorrow he and I are off to Pismo Beach for a few days. After all that has happened lately, it is really important for us to spend time with Chris. Family is the most important thing. You never know when something can be taken away from you.

goodbye scott

Now there is another reason for me to mourn 9/11

Theresa's dad died this morning. He has been in a coma for 2 weeks, ever since he crashed his dirt bike.

Theresa told me tonight that she and her two older sisters, Lauren and Molly, were with him all morning. They got to talk to him, tell him they loved him, comfort him etc. When they told him it was ok if he went, he took a deep breath, let it out and was gone. She said it was like he was waiting for them to give him permission. I know that feeling, it was the same thing that my dad did.

Theresa said that it was peaceful, that he was at peace. She said she had never ever seen her dad so peaceful.

The funeral will most likely be next week.

Scott leaves behind his wife Florence, and kids, Shawna, Lauren, Molly, Dane, Theresa, Audrey and Helen. He also leaves behind one granddaughter.
