I am doing pretty well. I have a lot to look forwards this year;my oldest nephew(who lives in Oklahoma City) is graduating from high school which is a big deal. Then, he'll be going to college in the fall(an even bigger deal.) He's applied to a bunch of different places-a few places on the West Coast(USD-University of San Diego) among them, and then some places closer to where he lives(The University Of Arkansas which would be a easy drive when he wants to come home for weekends and holidays.)

My niece is in a relationship, for quite a while(and, because of timing and the like) I only just got to meet him the other day.I approved, of course. :)

It's coming up on a year since my dad got his cancer(and a year since he had his surgery, in April). I honestly have to say that I am relieved that he is doing so well, but it doesn't mean that I don't still worry about him.

Honestly? I feel like I have gotten a lot out of talking to someone a couple times a month.Especially when I feel like I've had a rough time of it(which I definitely did at Christmas-I LOVE Christmas, but we had so many people visiting I felt overwhelmed more than once
