Pt. 1

For those who read this, you probably already know me and my family so i won't go too far into the past to get you up to date. Dad has been battling esophageal cancer for the past two years, beat it last Christmas and then found out there were some cancerous material on his tail bone into his lower back. He's been on more chemo to battle this and while it hasn't been as bad as the last round it is still strenuous and difficult. Yesterday he was admitted to the local hospital with SEVERE pain from his gal bladder and vomiting. The doctors are hopeful and so is mom so i'll try and remain positive but being so far from home ('bout a 7hr. drive to the D/FW area) is very difficult. There are times i wish i could move back home and help Mom take care of dad and the Grandparents and yet at the same time there are things going on here in MS. that keep me rooted. I want to do whats best for my family and keep the proverbial roof over our heads while Marie takes care of Xander and yet her having a job would certainly help ease the tightness. So what to do...

on the other hand, here's what's on my plate at the moment for those who want to keep tabs:

1. movie shoot next month, but part but plenty of background work.
2. Improv troupe getting it's second wind with good showing at Laughingstock.
   
3. Podcast series - Midweek Massacre - beginning next week.
4. Radio Theatre Troupe to begin next week.
5. Band is getting some exposure, finally due to open mic nights around the city. Demo cd is 1/2 done with more tightening this weekend.
6. Moving to new place week after next, upstairs jones!
