A tough week

This week has been filled with many stressors. I found out on Tuesday that a co-worker/friend of mine has resigned his position. This is difficult for me because we work closely at least 3 days a week. It will be hard to replace him and with such a short amount of school left, it should be interesting.
Wednesday my mom had sugery on her shoulder. She is doing too much of course and needs to sit back and relax. She'll have a rough few weeks coming up and I hope that she is able to take care and allow herself to heal. My dad tries to take care of her, but she doesn't always allow that to happen.
Also late Tuesday night, a dear family friend passed away. Don was like a grandfather to my sister and I. Growing up we lived across the street from he and his wife Dorothy and they loved having us over and watching us play in the yard and the street! They always had time for Erin and I and would care for us like members of family. Don was a nature lover and I remember him showing me around his backyard filled with trees and glorious plants. Don and Dorothy loved each other and cared so much for others. He'll be missed.
