I had planned on doing a blog on Christmas things but some things have taken place with others that I needed to tell you about. On Monday, we received word that my cousin Chuck McGinnis, who became a Catholic Priest in June 2006 had a mild heart attack on Sunday. Reportedly, he had talked to a doctor about an acid reflux problem at an Advent Dinner in Charleston (WV), I believe and then did 2 masses and a baptism and then wasn't feeling well and went to the Hospital on Sunday. There was no immediate notification that this happened as a matter of fact, my mother went to get milk at Riesbeck's Monday night and asked an employee there who lives in my late maternal grandparents home if Chuck was coming in for Christmas and found out from his older sister Cheri, that he had his heart attack. He was to return home Friday. Word is that he will recuperate for 4 to 6 weeks at his parents home on Stone Church Road and will have Therapy at Wheeling Hospital during that time.

Meanwhile, in my last blog, I had shared the story of my annual visit to the home of Mary Kay and Mike Marshall last Saturday night. The one thing I didn't mention is that during the visit Lara had a small seizure. She had a checkup on Thursday. I am waiting word from Mary Kay on what is wrong. I phoned Thursday night and her son Jared had answered and did not find out anything as neither did Mary Kay.

The actual Christmas Day was quiet. My parents and I went to the Christmas Day Buffet for Dinner at Super Buffet in Woodsdale. If you have never been there and would like to visit any other day, stop by, they have a lot of stuff to eat.
