Losing too many.

Getting ready for bed last night I checked my emails and any late breaking news to hear the sad news of Patrick Swayze losing his battle with cancer and the very young age of 57.  My goodness this year we have lost way too many people too early.  It is also a little scary as I am in the age bracket that a lot of them were, very scary.  It is just not right.  You know one of Patrick's big roles in the film world was filmed right here in Tulsa, The Outsiders.  You should read the book, also written by a Tulsan S.E. Hinton, and then watch the movie.

Not much to post today as I really don't have much time before I have to go workout, shower, work, hair done, painting class, pet store, grocery store, finally home to cook dinner.  I really hate work but it is a part of our lives and I must but my free time is getting limited again.  Really hate that.  I have got to try and find a niche to paint somewhere. 

Later my friends, so sorry this is just fluff and not much to verbalize about.  Maybe my mind will get it in gear this week.

Hard to believe he's gone. I'm only a year older. Scary.

Definitely a sad time. As another blogger said, one of his greatest accomplishments was probably his decades of marriage and commitment to one woman.

The Outsiders is a great book.
