I'm sorry to hear about your loss!!
I've been looking to see who passed on, can someone fill me in?

jeh3v · Nov 9th, 2009, 01:36 PM

Thanks you guys. It's been a tough week but I'm just taking it one day at a time. My dad was diagnosed with lung and bone cancer about 15 months ago and given 6 months to live, so it was really a miracle that we had as much time with him as we did. The last three weeks he had been in severe pain and was basically bed ridden, so I'm very thankful that he isn't in pain anymore. He passed in his sleep peacefully in his own bed. He had a very strong faith so I know where he is right now

and that's comforting.

Thanks Wifey

I've been kind of throwing myself into working on the house this weekend and it has really come along. It took FOREVER to lay the floors, but they are almost all done, we just have to do the half bath. We ripped up all the linoleum and carpet and replaced it with laminate hardwood and I just love how it warms it up. I'll try to get some pictures of it later.

About the wall color, that's funny that you should call it cinnamon. I actually got the inspiration for the wall color from my Cinnamon Hippie that I adore so much

I will have to take a comparison picture and see how similar it is now that it's on the walls.

I am so sorry about your dad, my dad pass away from lung cancer and he was in so much pain and I will over heard my sister praying for God to take him and I didnt understand why she would pray for God to take him but the pain so so unbearable for him. Be strong and you and your family are in my thought and prayer.

jennalovesbags · Nov 9th, 2009, 02:23 PM

So sorry about your dad, J. Losing mine is my biggest fear.

oopsididitagain · Nov 9th, 2009, 03:59 PM

jeh3v, I've been praying for your family. I lost my dad to prostrate and throat cancer. He was 77.
I missed you.

ASingleMom · Nov 9th, 2009, 04:40 PM

jeh3v,

I am so sorry :( It's never easy.

My mother passed away in 2006 from metastatic lung cancer (went to brain, liver, bones, etc) and she is the reason I changed my focus from neurology to Radiation Oncology. I see it every day and it never gets any easier.

Hugs

Its good to see you back on the forum J! It sounds like you are keeping busy w/your house! Can't wait to see more pics after you have done more to it!

jeh3v · Nov 9th, 2009, 10:34 PM

Thanks you guys

Momofgirls, Asinglemom, and Oops, it makes me sad to hear stories about more people having to go through what I'm going through. Oops, my dad was 60.

S, I actually do have some more pics on my camera I can upload real quick, along with a new Coach purchase I need to post in my thread. Give me a quick second.

jeh3v · Nov 9th, 2009, 10:42 PM

Excuse the mess, still trying to get some things arranged. It's a process!

And here's a hallway pic of the new floors. We still have to put the shoe molding up of course. Man it was work getting them down. I'll have more pictures once we get more settled in. It's come a long way from white walls and nasty carpet!

oopsididitagain · Nov 10th, 2009, 12:00 AM

So pretty, J! I've always admired wooden flooring, it is warm and inviting. Your hard work is really paying off. Your house looks comfortable and calm.
Your dad was kind of young still. Both of my parents are gone now but they both lived to their mid seventies. I'm not sure of their faith so that is disheartening to me. I'm glad that your father had strong faith. You have solace in that.

meridee · Nov 10th, 2009, 01:09 AM

I absolutely love that everyone on here is so supportive of each other. The forum really is its own community.

wifeyb · Nov 10th, 2009, 07:38 AM

J it looks amazing! and im anxious to see this parker comparision with the wall!!! lol
speaking of i ALMOST won a yellow parker on ebay, but got outbid.....

jeh3v · Nov 10th, 2009, 10:50 AM

Oops, thank you!

I wanted to do earth tones but not make it boring, KWIM? I'm going to do accents of a burnt orange and cream for the living room. And yes he was pretty young but unfortunately cancer ravages the body and doesn't really care about age. Thank you as always for the kind words

Wifey, thanks! I'll try to get a comparison pic tonight...it was definitely where I got the idea!

I saw that crazy deal on Ebay and was mad I didn't get to bid! It was a steal!

It really is

It was comforting for me in a hard time to know that I had a whole group of supportive people from a million miles away sending warm thoughts and prayers.
