Blog Strike Over and Traffic School

Hello my darling friends who actually read my blog. I have returned to the world of blogging following a brief break. I hope you all have heard about the passing of my sweet sister Heather. I've posted her obituary below for those of you who were not able to get a copy. If I were talented enough to know how to add audio files, I would also post the talk I gave at her funeral, but that will have to wait for another day. I have so many wonderful friends who try to keep tabs on me. Sorry I am a little slow at returning phone calls. Just know that I have greatly appreciated all the warm thoughts and notes. As for me, I'm trying to get back to life, but it's a little harder than I thought it would be. Lucky for me I work with awesome people who have been very understanding.

So on a lighter note, I went to traffic school tonight. Can I say that it was sadly one of the most entertaining experiences of my life?? Seriously. The instructor was really funny. Despite the fact I got pulled over for going 37 in an area I genuinely thought was 40 mph. With 4 lanes of traffic, businesses and stop lights, I was suprised to learn it was only 30. Well, hope to not make that mistake again.
