So I know I have updated in a while, but here goes. They found Jason's body Friday morning. He had fallen into the creek, and the current swept him away, and he got caught under some logs. His body was found about 9:30. He was under water for about 15 hours, and I couldn't imagine seeing him, as they brought him up out of the water. The viewing was Monday night, it was nice. I couldn't cry there, because I wanted to be strong for everyone else. But on my way to Jessica's I bawled like a little baby. Tuesday was the funeral, it was a very beautiful service, and it was packed. The first song they played was Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy, because that was Jason's favorite. The second song they played was Angels Among Us, and everyone lost it. There wasn't a dry face in the crowd. But he is in a better place now, and he is peaceful. Chris can't seem to win for losing. His mom has been dying of cancer for a while, and they sent her home from the hospital Monday, and that night after the viewing was over, and everyone went to see her for the last time, she too passed away. Chris lost his son and mother in less then a week. I can only imagine what he is going through. But he has a strong support group, and he will make it through.

As for myself, I have been doing well. I have settled some battles with old friends, and put everything behind me. Life is way to short, to bicker over nothing. I know no one is promised tomorrow, and I would hate myself, if someone I cared about passed away, and I didn't tell them I cared, or that our last words were words of hate.

I am going to go now. I am still a little sad, and not really up to posting in this. But I will post again soon.
