The Finished Race...

This morning, after a long and painful eight month battle with pancreatitis and it's complications, my mother, Anne Marie Zeringue White, passed away at the age of 54.  She left peacefully, with her husband and my father at her bedside holding her hand.  She is now resting in the arms of her Savior, surrounded by those who she loved who have gone before her, most significantly of all, her Mother who passed away when Mom was but 22 years old.

I am currently on vacation in Virginia, visiting old friends, some of whom are driving back with me tonight.  Services are tomorrow and Saturday.

Thank all of you for your prayers...

Blessings...

Summer Weddings and Vacations...

Well, what a busy summer so far.

School full time would be enough but of course I can't just keep things simple so I added a full time job, a mother in the hospital, three weddings in the space of a month and a half, one two week vacation, moving to Fort Worth, and eating....all before The middle of September.  I'm crazy...ok, hush now, I know we already knew that.

So, I just payed $400 for my first ever car repair on the new car...in preparation for driving to VA on Monday for wedding number 3.  And I got a new inspection sticker into the bargain.  All I can say is...Daddy made me do it. :-)  Daddy's are so smart sometimes...and it's driving so much smoother now.  Yeah, I know, I'm such a girl. :-)

Lyndsey's wedding was this past weekend...it was beautiful as always...pictures soon!

And then yesterday...Mom, who has been doing so well lately, had a seizure.  Turns out it's not anything like lesions on her brain but instead its metabolic issues which have yet to be explored and so they are going to give her some new pills.   Everything is well for now.

And I will get around to a real update soon...for now, must run!!!

Blessings!
