I'm taking a little different tone with today's blog post.  Readers of this site will notice I haven't posted since January 2nd, which is odd for me.  I was called away on a sad note.  A friend of mine whom I've known since I was five, had her husband unexpectedly pass away from a sudden heart attack, so I flew to be with her and her family.  Besides the usual sad, I'm honestly not sure how to put words to my emotions in a situation like this.  Since we were kids, we were always able to make the other feel better, but there's nothing I can do to make her hurt and pain go away.
