Update

Hey all its Andrew (again)

Not to much has been going on since the last blog... I cannot remember all the details kimberly gave on the shooting, but the update is that the shooter, his girlfriend are already dead, died within hours of the shooting (the shooter died on the scene), Cynthias brother is alive on machines but is brain dead... they have decided to donate his organs, so they ran an oxygen tube into him, im no doctor so im not sure of the exact reason but basically it will help the organs to survive. we heard that yesterday morning they were going to pull the plug on him, they said that he COULD breathe on his own but he could also very well just die... Its SO tragic, in the paper it explained why the shooter shot himself in the middle of the street a distance from the shooting... It said he was running after 2 of his friends, i can only assume it was because he was scared out of his mind and wanted help... but they refused to stop yelling back at him telling him to stop chacing them. And then it clicked with im what he had done and he had no one to lean on.

Beyond that tragic story kimberly and I have just been working away... As kimberly mentioned i was installing a microwave that mounts over their stove... im SO happy with it, it looks SO nice, and it feels good to know i didnt cut corners... all the screws are in plus i made a false bottom to cover up all the other holes in the bottom of the cabinet (the one it mounts to)... some from me and some from the previous microwave... it looks SO good and it fit PERFECTLY!! I was telling Tom (uncle) in an email about how that NEVER happens, i always measure 5 dozen times then cut and come up 1/2 an inch short on one side or dont make a straight cut and its tight on one side and not on the other... whats even more amazing is i took all the measurements up stairs and drew all the lines on the board up stairs then went down and cut ALL the holes at the same time then came up stairs and it fit in perfectly and snug on every side). I amazing what can i say... BUT...

Im not half as amazing as my beautiful wife. She works SO hard down in the store, she is a great motivator to help me shed some pounds... while i do have do deal with SO much of her mess, she she deals with my (tiny tiny (haha)) messes. And the best part about her is at the end of the day she still loves me even more than in the morning no matter how the day went... not to be cheasy but it reminds me of a line from a james taylor song "how sweet it is to be loved by you". It is so amazing to be loved by kimberly! I LOVE HER!

thanks for reading the blog... we are getting a bit better at staying current... speaking of which the weather is in the +... so we go from -49 last tuesday night to +5 to 10 today. BUT we have had a constant snow for the past like 3 days, im SO excited to get out on the snow machines, they are SO much fun to ride in deep snow!
