Whew! What a Week

Hulloa, m'dears. You've probably noticed my absence in the bloggy world this past week. If not, I assure you, my feelings aren't hurt. . . too bad. :]
But to explain, it's not been overly busy. I've just had one of those weeks. My awesome, profound brain things have been rather few these passing days and when I sit down to do a normal post, nothing comes. Hence, no Names or A+A. :[
Also, I'm requesting your prayers. For the past two weeks, my grandfather (mother's side) has been struggling with his health. Long story short, he was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and prescribed medicine to help with that. But last Saturday, he was taken to the Emergency Room at UT Medical Center with a sugar level of 580+ and a yellow tint to his skin. More tests were run and we were told he has a mass on his pancreas. He underwent a biopsy yesterday and came through just fine (Praise God!), expecting to come home later this evening. So, now we are simply waiting for the results. They haven't said anything yet, but I get the impression that we are looking at pancreatic cancer. But God is in control, no matter the outcome.
If you have any down time, please remember him and my family. His name is Milton, he's 68 years old and in better shape than any of us! :D We just, still need him here.
---------------------
On another note, I'm taking this entire week off of blogging. So, it will most likely be Monday or later before you hear from me again. I'll still be in touch via contact form and comments, just no posts. Might even have a small surprise to reveal by then. . . :]
Thank you in advance, my friends! Love you all!
