Greetings,

OK, I know I have been hit and miss with journal entries this week.  It has just been a very hard week as I just keep coming up empty on what to write about.  I am excited, as this week is my last week of driver education here in Grand Forks.  Actually I only have 10 hours to go, not that I am counting!  I am so ready for my vacation to actually begin.  I want to get out and travel.  My lovely bride and myself of course do not have a plan set in stone, but we need to get away.  You can just tell, we need a break.  The only problem of course is neither one of us wants to be away from the spoiled rotten gassy dog for a long period of time.  Speaking of our wonderful spoiled rotten gassy dog, she has really been putting the gas in the word gassy lately!  I think she gets that from her mother! 

I am done with my latest round of shots, so I will have the next two weeks off.  I also received my appointment schedule for my next round of testing at Mayo, which of course was instant stress.  My biggest hope will be on my return I will of course have all good tests, but also I will now be able to return to Mayo every 6 months instead of every 3 months.  When I was there last time they told us that might be an option.  We will see.

I hope all of you have been keeping Brittany Dvorak in your thoughts and prayers.  She continues to battle and I am so proud of her and her family. 

Time to get to bed.   
 

God Bless all of you, Walk On.  Brian
