What takes me ten minutes back home on my pc takes me three hours here. I am not up to fighting this cruddy ancient pc any longer. It is sucking the lifeforce right out of me. I can feel my qi weakening.
So that means I must find other ways of communication to keep those who wish to know how this family situation is going in the know.
jane--how about smoke signals since you're already looking skyward? ; )
sailor--how's your telepathy?
wendy b.--vertical? hell woman I'm shooting for horizontal! = )
don't know much until after big fuss appt. later on today (Monday here already--booooo) so keep yer ears perked and eyes open for any flare guns or smoke signals.
Thank you to all on this board for the prayers for this ordeal I am in the midst of. I guess that is what families are--ordeals. Ugh. But do not take that ugh for lack of love and gratefulness for being where I am to be doing what little I can in this situation.

I wish you well. You've had more than your share of problems and deserve some good luck to come your way.

Damn damn damn damn damn. News on the family front is not good. Just frickity dammit.
This means I might be here indefinitely or have to fly back out here in the fall when they might possibly do surgery. It was a rough doc visit to attend with my parent. To see your own parent turn pale and break into a sweat when given the hard news is heartbreaking.
I'm doing all I can to be strong and deal with all these things that must be taken care of since my parent isn't able to do this stuff due to the injury. Hangin' on by a thread.
Just friggity fruckity fudge. This bites.
If I'm stuck out here past August I didn't bring my winter clothes and what fun that will be. I guess someone back home will be able to get my things into a box and FedEx or UPS them out here.
Damn. Really bummed about the health news for my family. Ugh. = (

You are a wonderful child to your parent.
It is hard.
This spring, I saw my mom turn from a fairly active, self-sufficient, independent person into a completely immobilized shadow of her self, suffering agonizing pain, unable to sit up, unable to read, unable to do much of anything. Thankfully, her vertebra fractures are healing and she is beginning to resume some normal functioning. It is scary and frustrating to see.
But you are wonderful to be so devoted and *present* both physically and emotionally. I hope you'll get the support you need through this.

Will write more when the mind clears and after some sleep.
I thank you for your words. I hope to get on another computer tomorrow that doesn't crash every other second and isn't virus filled like this one.
Thanks Noa.
