Day 3

This is day 3.  I know it does not seem like much, but it is the most days in a row I have posted.  I don't have much to say tonight (surprisingly).

Tonight, I ate dinner with my nephew (son of my sister who passed away last year).  We always have a good time and today was no different.  Today we discussed his 12 year old daughter and some challenges she has been presenting.  As importantly, we discussed our up coming depositions for the law suit filed by my sister's husband related to her death.  I explained the deposition and how it will go.  We discussed how horrible it is going to be.

The other side wants to take my deposition and, frankly, I don't know why.  Rationally, I understand they have to depose everybody who might have relevant information related to my sister's death.  Emotionally, though, I have no interest in sitting through some inane deposition with jack off lawyers and their various assistants and associates.  I don't think my nephew or the rest of the family have any idea who emotionally draining it could be to relive relationships with Veronica and her illness, the mistakes, and her ultimate death.  Not good to say the least.  I assume the depos will be soon, and I really want them to be finished.  not so much for me, but for my nephews, neice, and Veronica's sister.  Hopefully, this will be over soon.  It seems like, though, it is going on forever...

On a lighter note, the Cardinals won again.  Good game, good timely hitting, and great result.  This team has the chance to be very good (certainly better than the Cubs).  I am really looking forward to this season.  I never did follow up with anybody about the businessman's special, but I think I'm going on the 19th.  Need to make a decision.

Finally, we had the parent-teacher conference for our oldest today (she is in pre-school, so its not like its 9th grade conferences), but it was nice to hear positive things about our daughter.  She misses the cut-off for kindergarten by 2 months so she'll do "junior kindergarten" next year.  She likes to go to school, so we are doing all right so far.  Seems to me, as long as she likes to learn, then we can keep her on the right path, and by right path, I mean off the pole.

As I mentioned in my last post, I am going to end every one of these with something that made me smile, laugh, or just something positive.  Today, I had dinner with my nephew.  We always have a good time together, and, though we don't spend enough time together, it is always a great time to hang out with him.

That's all I have tonight.  I hope everybody sleeps well.

Be Easy.
