Ozzfest 2010

Not a lot of words needed to explain just how phenomenally fun this day was for us! After almost a year of battling his cancer, my husband is feeling better, in remission and we enjoyed a day without kids, with good friends, listening to some of our favorite bands...and finding some new favorites.

This is Bob and I...as he would say at the end of the night "We rocked our faces off."

Black Label Society was awesome and the security kept the crowd surfers safe (mostly).

Well, if you know Bob, you also know his sense of humor is sometimes warped...but I thought it was funny and worth a place in my post.

Kay, myself and my rocker sister in law Brenda...

Saviours....a new favorite band.

New rock shoes and old rock shoes...my sis in law and a girl that I work with who we happened to run into while we were up there...which is crazy considering just how crowded the place was!

Saviours as they were closing their set.

Kay (right) and I hanging in the lawn before Ozzy came on...a bit tired and working up to a second wind.

Even the young came out...Bob caught a guitar pic from the BLS bassist...and gave it to her...

Unfortunately with the lights and my crummy camera....all I could do was get a fuzzy pic of Ozzy off the screen...but I assure you that was him and he kicked ass up there!

The rock apparel was worth taking pics of.

A very dedicated Ozzfest goer...the other side of his head said OZZ

Fist pumping.

Drowning Pool...let the bodies hit the floor.

Me, apparently being a bit goofy...must have been from too much head banging and too much time in the sun.

My husband and his sister.

Bob chilling out.

Drummer from Black label society.

The bassist from Black Label Society.

Brenda and I laughing about who knows what.

Stage for Black Label Society.

Zakk....

This guy looked like Gene Simmons...or at least we thought so. We got this pic with him and moments later the girls from the venue were walking around advertising $10.00 lawn seats for the Kiss Concert on September 3rd...it seemed like a sign to me...so I bought 3.

News, News and more news...

Well, no news is good news right?

Bob is back at work. HURRAY! Now to get caught up on some bills...but you know - that takes a little time but we are hacking away.

He saw the oncologist yesterday - good news - everything is still clear...he will be seen again in 2 months.

I put in my two weeks at Tom & Jerry's! Big hurray! Not that I didn't like the job - but working two jobs for 14 months and still trying to handle family issues is ridiculous.

On a sad note - We found out last night that my uncle Victor, who lives in Portugal died yesterday. His son came home and found him. Now the police are investigating it as a possible murder because there was someone seen running from the house and my uncle had trauma to the head; they think from a baseball bat.

My cousin is living here (his oldest son) with his wife and newborn daughter. His wife is also here to help with the new baby. His daughter and other son are there...his youngest son is who found him :(

My cousin Sonia apparently needed to be taken to the hospital and given tranquilizers because she is so beside herself and her blood pressure was becoming dangerously high.

I never met my uncle, but grew up with stories of him and even though we never spoke I certainly felt like I knew him.

My heart goes out to my family members and friends of the family who were so very close to him. It is indeed a sad day....

I spent the morning with my mother, who has desperately been trying to find a flight there in time for the funeral...however, the cheapest round trip flight she can find is just shy of $5,000.00 dollars.

I'm going to go clean house now...so many things to do on my only day off from either job this week.

God Bless!
