Getting on with the week here...

Been kind of a long week here what with all the events that have happened.

Aaron's funeral was yesterday and there were great words spoken by all in celebration of his life. The Lufkin High School Jam Band, a loose group of about 40 members who play tunes that the students themselves have arranged played at the cemetery. It was about as close to a New Orleans style jazz funeral as you can get in this town.

I have been on my new rotation at Nacogdoches Medical Center so in addition to my thoughts and prayers being in other places I have been getting to know new people and patients. Seems everyday I have fallen asleep early feeling very tired only to wake early. I am really getting enough sleep, but the extra morning hours makes it seem like I am not. Been kind of a long pull here, rotations, weekend work including the extra day I put in at my job, I still have to work this weekend before I have a weekend off.

Maybe we can start to get back to the things we have left unattended over the past week while we mourned and supported the friends and family of Aaron.
