I guess I should do one more update

You know I guess there is another update that I should do here, I can't believe how long ago I actually started this blog, things where much different then, the first big change of course is that I am now a widower of course like I stated in my previous post my wife and best friend Sandi Donecker passed away on 11 March 2014.

Second change I guess would be the obvious, I'm no longer 45 I am now 48 and will be 49 in February but one thing that hasn't changed is I am still going to school, or at least I am planning on it. I finished school in San Diego as a Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselor and because I still have 21 weeks left in my 9/11 GI Bill I'm going to continue going to school, first updating what I did in San Diego with any requirements that Washington State requires above what California requires, then I plan on taking some Psychology classes to add to what I have already done.

And then there is our son, Jesiah who is now 8 years old and missing his mommy, so things have changed and it is a sad time in our lives right now, but Jesiah and I will be strong and make Sandi proud of her husband and son.

My Wife and Best Friend Sandi Donecker

Myself and my wife and best friend Sandi Donecker who passed away on March 11 2014 at the age of 38

Hello my friends, it has been a long time since I have posted anything here in my blogs under this e-mail address and today I am going to try and get a handle on my blogs, I have many of them and it's not going to be easy but that is my plan.

For those of you who have not heard, I have lost my best friend and my wife of 14 years Sandi Marie Donecker passed away on March 11, 2014, and I announced that on many of my other blogs but for awhile could not remember the password to get on this one, however I remembered today and just wanted to pass that on.

At this time we not totally sure what happened. The day of 10 March was actually a great day, Sandi and I had recently moved into our new apartment on March 1rst and we where making plans that day for how she wanted to decorate the house, that night we watched movies on Netflix and enjoyed a candle light dinner together, we fell asleep while watching the movies and then sometime through the night Sandi passed away, she had no pain and showed no sign of distress when I woke the next morning and found her, the coroner's best estimate is she passed away somewhere between 1 and 5 a.m. and it seems her heart just stopped beating.

So it's been a little over a month now, and I still have many periods where I find myself often crying uncontrollable, no hysterical just a weeping that I can't stop, Sandi was and always will be my best friend and she was a wonderful mother and I miss her so much, I actually yet can't write to much about her passing because the weeping will start again and once it starts it is almost impossible to stop it, most times  I just let it run it's course and eventually the tears will stop, sometimes it's 30 minutes or like today I know I was weeping a good two hours. It's just so hard waking up and suddenly remembering she is no longer sleeping by my side and never will again until the Lord calls me home to heaven as well.

Well thank you for stopping by, I know it has been a long time since I wrote here, I'm trying to get all my blogs in order, some I may let go to the wayside and others I will continue, at this time I have no plans to start a new one, well I take that back I have been thinking of starting a new one, just where I send Sandi a daily little message that hopefully may give someone else in my place some strength and inspiration.
