| Our Robot partial put together... |
Week six-or also referred to week ZERO-and we still do not have a functional robot...its making me nervous because our scrimmage is 60 hours away (Feb 15, 2014). AND...school is canceled for tomorrow (2/13/14) because we are expected to receive 10-12 inches of snow. Because everything is canceled, we can not get into the school to build our robot!!

Stephen got the 3000lb carpets moved from Windsor Locks High School to Suffield High School for the scrimmage...half the battle is over. The next three days will be crazy!! Tonight we probably will be at the school until midnight! Build Build Build!!!

This week was also a very sad week...One of our dear friends Justin Conover didn't wake up yesterday morning 2/11/14 and they took him to the emergency room. He had a tumor the size of an orange removed from his head. Justin is recovering wonderfully from the surgery but the tests came back on the tumor and its cancerous and will grow back. He's been given 8-10 months to live.
Also my dear friend Anna Sadlowski's mother passed away...This is what was posted.

| Anna and her family |
It's been a whirlwind of emotions for my sister Anna and I over the last two days. Our mom passed away on Tuesday morning at home peacefully and we know our lives are never going to be the same. It was terrible to get such news and to be ...stuck in mid-GA with that ice storm coming. I looked into flights and finally decided to go west of the storm and take our chances driving home. Luckily, we made it straight through safely and had the opportunity to make arrangements for my mom. My sister and I would like to thank everyone for the kind words, thoughts, and prayers. Although we have taken a hit to our immediate family it is very comforting that our extended families, work families, and friends have been there for us the entire way. It's been a long day and will look at everything with fresh eyes tomorrow after a good night's rest. Her arrangements will be in the Post Tribune tomorrow but I will list them here...
A Memorial Gathering will be held on Saturday, February 15th, 2014 from 2pm-6pm at Calumet Park Funeral Chapel, 7535 Taft Street, Merrillville, IN 46410. Burial to be held privately by the family.

Our mom was a big champion of helping with local animal shelters so in lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to your local animal shelter on her behalf.
We look forward to visiting with family and friends and exchanging great stories for our mom, Miriam, who will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
A special thanks again to everyone who has expressed worry and concern for our family. We may have lost her earlier than ever expected but we gain the comfort that she's watching over us.
All the sad news just put things into perspective. I surely gave Stephen a huge hug when he got home from work today!!
