Good morning.
Corin - prayers for Nana headed up and out.
Off to get coffee...
I know I went and sat with my parents when one or other was having something done, like when my dad had a heart cath or when my mom had surgery on her hand.
Hello Ruthy! Was just wondering how you were...just the other day during the Easter weekend. Hadn't seen you in a while, our paths weren't crossing!
Good to see you!
God bless her fer that... I know what it's like to be alone in a hospital...
got Pain n Torture this mornin'... then come home and clear some timber fer an orchard fer mrsnad...
rosie: fluids (in the engine),u-joints, shocks/struts... good travel mug... tunes...
I put Margaret in charge o' tunes. Van already had a physical last week...we should be just about set! Probably pack stuff like beef jerky, nuts, carrot and celery sticks, apples...hm...dunno what else. We'll figure it out. Catch is that Margaret is working straight through 'til we leave, except Friday, when I'M working. So I gotta figure most stuff out on my own.
What kind of orchard?
I've always wanted a little plum tree orchard. Plum jelly is my favorite jelly and although dwarves don't need to know about such things, and I suspect Elves might know a bit too much, Rohirrim occasionally benefit from a prune or two!

I've been good, sis. Just haven't had much time to hang around in here lately. :-(
There are 21 payrolls due for today and several of them are very time-consuming, so I'd better get started if I want to get out of here by 6pm.
I'll be popping in and out all day.
i know what you mean...we're trying to finish up the school year...I think only about 4-5 more weeks to go! I'm not here as much as I used to be, either.
But I still find myself thinking about everyone. Wondering how they are!
Wardrobe malfunction?
Yes, the Pendemonium order came. I rather expect to get your boxes today, but you won't know until tomorrow since I won't be home before you leave.
You might consider getting a book you and Margaret would both like and taking turns driving and reading aloud. My family often does that on long car trips - in fact, a long trip home from Florida when I was eight introduced me to "The Hobbit" and the rest was history...
Prayers for Nana, Corin. That's a shame about the siblings.
Thanks for the prayers everyone.
Yes, it's a shame about the siblings. But it's not a surprise.
Of course not... it's a shame, but not a surprise.
How long is Nana going to be hospitalized to recover?

I can't read in the car. I get horribly ill. We may try getting some sort of book on tape - since she's coming back here, we could even check something out from the library.
We're really not sure. I'm sure there will be some rehab again. We just don't know how much.
She's got to stay until at least Saturday. I'm painting the bathroom on Friday.
Hello bentfeather. Long time no see. Thanks for gracing us with your lovely work this morning.
Ah, shame... yes, if the library has books on tape, get them. I tried that coming out but the library on that end was pathetic!
