Stream of consciousness

So I am trying my hand at this method of blogging. Lots of bloggers use this method of writing when they have a lot to say of a bunch of random thoughts. I imagine this is going to more like a glorified facebook status update. Some of these topics I may come back to and write a more in depth blog entry on one or more of these topics. So maybe this is a spring board for future posts, maybe not. But there are so many thoughts, and time sensitive things I want to share.

So Katy’s benefit at the Shannon Door was amazing!!! Jimmy and Kimmy Keys!!! Rocked the House!!! The Mulkern Family and the generous people of Jackson, NH. I renewed my faith in humanity.

My awesome husband graciously ok not so graciously stopped at a few outlets on the way home and I got some super adorable shoes at LL Bean for $4.49. I can’t wait to wear them tomorrow!!

Speaking of tomorrow… I will be taking Katy to her transplant clinic ALONE! Usually Mike and I both go, but it’s not very fair to Patrick and we don’t expect any real decisions to be made. Other than pulling the damn NG tube.

Mike will spend the time unpacking and organizing our house since it looks like a bomb went off… Looking forward to getting everything cleaned and organized before we head back to NH for the Murphy/Mulkern/ Riley invasion of Storyland! CAN NOT WAIT!!!!

Tomorrow evening Make a Wish is coming to plan our trip to Disney. Although the thought of seeing K & P enjoying Disney in such a magical way… the reason they are given this opportunity breaks my heart.

I completed my first year at Bay Path I finished with an A and B…not so happy with the B, but considering the session I had. I am actually pretty impressed with myself. It was a long, hard, emotional session. I am happy its behind me and am looking forward to the time off. Classes start back 9/18/10. Currently I am planning to go back…all of that depends on when Katy’s new ticker arrives.

So, that’s all for now! Let me know what you think about this style of blogging!

Keys for Katy!

WOW! Is all I can say! I am overwhelmed with emotions and I tried to keep myself it check… but at times it was nearly impossible. The generosity and kindness of strangers has renewed my faith in humanity.

Jimmy and Kim Keys are two people we have never met…yet, they feel like dear longtime friends. They loved on my sweet babies and took time out of there VERY packed schedule to squeeze in a show to benefit Katy,and our family. People that they have never met… they read about her on our cousins facebook page. They worked together to organize a never before Jimmy Keys Kid show!

Jimmy, is such a fabulous entertainer and all around GREAT guy he had no trouble winging it. He along with his wife Lady Gaga Kim Keys kept about 90 kids and their parents laughing, the entire time.

The Shannon Door was our host and they had candy and homemade cupcakes and lemonade for everyone. Auntie Tess baked over 100 cupcakes for our little Rock Star!!

When Jimmy sang K K K Katy the tears started rolling down my face.

Mike and are so very thankful to both Jimmy and Kim Keys and the gang at The Shannon Door

If you are interested in catching one of Jimmy’s amazing shows… I promise you won’t be disappointed. You can find his tour schedule at http://www.jimmykeys.com/show-dates.php
