Last night the wife and I went to see "Reign of Fire". Not a bad movie. It was fairly suspenseful and the action was good. I predicted the ending halfway through. But, it was a good ending nonetheless. In the movie previews it insinuated that the dragons were highly intelligent. So, I expected there to be at least one scene where the "heroes" talk to the dragons. However, the movie portrayed the dragons as little more than cunning predators.

This week I've been doing some self analysis and I've found that I'm really not very optimistic of the future. I think it stems from the denial of our business loan. I'm not looking forward to very much. Except for Tess's big move and a possible settlement sometime next year. I hope whatever we get it's enough to start our business. Otherwise we're dead in the water. I could go for vocational retraining but, that's a long way off. It's hard because I'm the kind of person who always has his mind in the future. When I don't, I usually get depressed or aimless and ambitionless. Let's hope something works out instead.

I'm a bit worried about my wife because they found a lump in her breast during a medical exam today. Apparently, the nurse said the lump is movable which indicates that it is probably a cyst of some sort. She goes for a mammogram on Friday. I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. If it is something I'm sure we're catching it in the early stages. My wife has been sick for the past few weeks so I'm guessing that it has something to do with that instead of a tumor. We'll see for sure next week.

Had a nice weekend... Yesterday we took a drive to my Father's house to see my two sisters who came down for a visit from Washington. Both look very good and I was very pleased to see them. It had been several years. Also, my kids got to play with two of their cousins. They had a good time.

One of my sisters told me she quit smoking two years ago because of a wish my Mom made before she died. My mother died of lung cancer. I was so pleased with my sister for doing that. Smoking is an incedious habit.

This week I see the doctor again about my injury. I'm unsure of what he'll say. But, I'm hoping it'll be positive. At this point I may be on disability until November when the insurance physician clears me for work.
