Aren't things supposed to happen in 3's??

I hope so, cuz then I will be done!

1) Ben's tumor/surgery

2) Out of the blue, I get an email the other day from Ancestry.com saying they have info on my biological Father. So to see ALL the info it costs like $100, but they showed me enough to let me know that it was really him. So, I decide I am going to call a friend of mine who is a detective, just so happens he has someone at his desk that day with his laptop who can enter the name, DOB and "VOILA" there he is! However, he died in 1998. So, I send off for a copy of the death certificate and sure enough I get it in the mail today and it was for sure him. My Mom died Dec 20, 1996 and ???coincidence??? my Dad died Dec 20, 1998!!! How WEIRD is that?

I am pretty bummed that I never got to know him, he left when I was 2 and had limited contact with me until I was 5. He was a Police Officer and seemed to be a pretty upstanding guy, so how do you leave your child and never see them again?? Anyways, it says he moved straight from Ok to Las Vegas and owned/managed a trailer park and was a Surveylance Manager in a Casino. Pretty cool I guess. He went on to marry twice, so I am sure that I have other siblings somewhere. Do I really want to open that can of worms? Doubtful, I don't really get along with the two I have! LOL

and finally 3) My car is going haywire on me again and is in the shop! $1600 to fix it, do I fix it or trade it in? I am so tired of this dang thing! Nothing out there really jumps out at me and says "Buy Me!" I don't know.

WOW! That thing with your dad is weird. I would be like you kinda iffy on whether to look up siblings. I would always wonder though.

Hope you get your car things figured out too. How's the hubby?

Hey girl....hope all is well with you. Yeah, they say things happen in 3's! I hope your husband is doing well-still keeping you guys in my thoughts. I also hope the car thing works out-probably the last thing you need right now :) Yeah...I don't know what I would do in your situation with your Dad and the siblings. You have a good day and be good to yourself. ((HUGS)) Dede
