Life has taken a twist for me. I don't talk about my "real" life much in The Lounge since this site is meant to be a diversion from real life. I have a four year-old son, Tyler, and this week, he was diagnosed with cancer. He is responding well to chemotherapy, and we are all very hopeful for a full recovery. However, we have a long road ahead, and this site has become an afterthought in my mind. I'm sure I won't be updating for the next week or two, and after that, who knows...
I'm taking an optimistic approach, and at some point, I think life will resume some sense of normalcy. But that is a bit of a ways away. Until then, I'd like to thank all of my readers for indulging me the past year and a half. Tho we've never met, I consider many of you to be friends.
Wishing you all laughter, peace, and plenty of March Madness.
So long for now,

I went through 8 weeks of cancer treatment. During each visit, I walked through the ward that had the kids who were fighting cancer.
They were a constant inspiration to me. Their strength and dignity taught me many lessons.
I will pray for your son, your family and I will give thanks for the dedicated people who are taking care of him.

My thoughts are with you. As I watch my two kids zip around the house this weekend, I am even more thankful than usual. I will be thinking of you and look forward to things getting back to normal for you and your family.
