Well I will admit I didn't hold true and keep posting on here or myspace. In fact I've just been enjoying the weather with trips to Sandcastle and out of state. Oh well. This is also my first attempt at a mobile blog post. All of my computers are dead so my Google Android phone is the only thing I have. If this pans out, I'll try to post more often.Signing off for now,
Matt

My Aunt Stacey

Okay I’m gonna be brief, I know I said in my first post I’d try to post often, but obviously THAT won’t be happening. Ugh. Not like anyone reads this. But here’s an email my aunt Tammy just sent me in regards to my aunt Stacey… On the left, my aunt Stacey, on the right, my aunt Tammy.

Dear family and friends,
I am writing this email with GREAT sadness.  My best friend, my sister Stacey Jones, had a lung collapse about three weeks ago.  She has had exploratory surgery and it has been discovered that she has a cancerous tumor in her upper lobe of the left lung.  She will be having her lung removed this coming week.  Stacey is an amazing person, 25 years ago she was a St. Jude’s child at the age of 15 and was the only one in 1984 to beat a horrible bone cancer and have her leg amputated.  She is an inspiration to all and a hero to me.  She works Partylite at night and is an Electrical Engineer in the day.  She only has short term disability and her recovery will be long since they will be removing her lung.  She is single and has a child in college … She will be feeling this not only physically but also financially and emotionally.  I have put together the attached fundraiser to help her through these tough times.  If you could PLEASE pass it around to collect orders and/or order something yourself, your efforts and generosity are GREATLY appreciated.  50% profit will be raised and this matter is extremely urgent as we are trying to have this fundraiser finalized this Friday, April 24th so that Stacey doesn’t need any other worries on her plate except to fight hard and heal quickly.
Thanks in advance for your kindness.  Please let me know if you have any questions. 
Warm thoughts to you and your family,
Tammy

 

Now, I have the form for any orders you may want, please send me a Tweet via twitter (twitter.com/flamingblue8z), or email, which I’m not sure I want to directly post on here in case of bots. But it’s my username from here, at GMAIL dot COM. Please, any help is still help!

Thanks for your time.

And the saga continues (or begins)...

Welcome! You've ended up here for one reason or another. Why is that? Do YOU know? Followed a link I posted? Went through the random blog link? Let me know. I'm new to blogging (sorta), at least a more "professional" style blog. I've MySpace'd (2005-now), LiveJournal'd(?-2005), and even OpenDiary'd WAY back in 2001. So now, I'm moving up to Blogger. Mainly because I need to get things out every now and then, and this is the way to do it. Plus, I'm migrating a lot of things to Google's many wonderful services. I'm gonna try to keep this short this time, mainly cause I'm listening to podcasts, but I will probably post in here a few times a week. We'll see. Let me know what you think, go back (if you dare!) and find my blog on these sites... MySpace, naturally, has the most recent posts.
