Sorry that I have been quiet as of late. On November 12, my mother had an orange sized tumor removed from her brain. The doctors got it all and it was benign. She is doing really good and is continuing to recover at home. I was in Texas from November 13 to November 18. We even sent a Red Cross message to my wife’s ship and she was able to meet us in Texas. We had as good of a time as possible in the situation. We saw a lot of family that we hadn’t seen in a long time and I even had time enough to get a new Texas Driver’s Lisence (my first horizontal lisence). Needless to say, I missed three and a half working days, so I have had some catching up to do to get up to date with all of my projects. I am now fully caught up and will be back to using some of my free time to post.
My main concern with this holiday weekend is not the 8 trillion communism proposal, but the Lone Star Showdown. Preparations have begun and I am at my office Marooned Out. Thank you all for supporting my family during this stressful time and Gig ‘Em Aggies!
WHOOP!

The Aggie game is my biggest worry too. And may God bless your mom.
I’m so glad to hear that your mom is doing well! Welcome back to life and blogging again.
As you can imagine, what occurred with your mother, my sister, was totally unexpected. It gave me pause to reflect on the precious nature of family. Seeing all joining together to spirit the tumor away was truly a reflection of the Howe/Thornton power to heal. Having your mother back at the helm of her boys is the next goal.
Now, with respect to Big 12 football, there is always next year for the Aggies, but this year Texas Tech is the Champion of all of Texas and half of Oklahoma. Wreck’em Tech!
