RIP Frank

This morning when the alarm went off at 5AM, I realized I had awakened with a migraine.  That is never a fun way to begin my day...never.  My normal attempts with sinus pills and ibuprofen didn't do the trick and I ended up having to take an actual migraine pill.  I'm happy to report it worked, but sadly, I really, really want to sleep and since I'm working today that is not an option.

After taking a quick shower for the day, I checked my computer for any information I might need for the day.  I was stunned to receive an email from my cousin letting me know her brother died.  This is a first-cousin to my dad, and he was only in his late 60's.  They had just buried his mother-in-law yesterday, and he suffered a heart attack last night and passed away.  It was such a shock, and my heart breaks for his wife.  Growing up, I was very close to this particular branch of the family, although as time has passed, I've become much closer to his siblings.  This turned out to be a really rough start to my day!  It was so unexpected and such a shock...you just never know in life.  My prayers are being sent up to his family!
