Things Happen in 3's

Let's see, start with the positive or negative....Well I'll start with the negative and end on a positive note.  Just when you think things can't get any worse, they do and they always happen in threes!

2 things occured today that I won't get in to but they were not so great.  One thing was minor, but still it hurt me and then the second event was worse but still not as bad as the 3rd event of the day.  One of my mom's close Jazzercise friends was murdered in her sleep last night.  Her husband killed her and then himself.  This is a friend that I saw a few months ago and one that my mom did things with frequently.  I saw her at Cindy's 31 Party in January and she asked me when we were going to start our family and couldn't wait to see our future babies.  In fact, every time I saw her she always asked about that.  Now she will never have the chance to meet our future family.  It is so sad to think that someone you love (her husband) could do that to you. My mom is devastated and shocked at the same time.  She just saw her Monday night and everything was fine.  How can someone kill someone else and no one has any clue they are that messed up?  He left a suicide note and blamed it on financial reasons.  I couldn't even imagine this happening to me or one my close friends.  This was a pretty crappy day!

And now the positive note...Roxanne came over to help make all of the many desserts for tomorrow night and was there when I got the call about my mom's friend.  She was very supportive and I am thankful she was there, as Renato is not this week.  We managed to bake lots of desserts for tomorrow night and enjoyed some yummy pizza rolls in the process.  At least my night had some good to it.
