10/12/08

Two nights ago my cousin and I had a toast to the memory of Ruth Hamilton. One year ago, on October 12th 2008, She passed away in her sleep. Then for the first time in over 15 years, all 9 of her grandchildren were reunited for her funeral. It doesn't feel like it's been a year already. She was absolutely one of a kind. How many of you have grandmothers over 6' tall? She was quirky, active and really fun to be around. She was also a very strong person and a great role model. I'll keep her in my mind and in my heart forever.

We all miss you Nanny.

My goal is to ring in the new year with...

1. A Job--Check! (10/17/09) Hilton Banquet Server/bartender
2. An Apartment--Check! (10/26/09) Did one step better! 3 bedroom/2 bathroom HOUSE. Move in Nov 2.
3. A dog

...preferably in that order.
