Offering special prayers for your parents. As you say, the results of this might mean *major* changes in their (and your) lives....do you have siblings?
And is your son and family safely settled in Washington state?
Off to get a few things I forgot at the store, while our sunshine and blue clouds and white fluffy coulds hold...BBL.
Oh, my. It HAS been two weeks(blush, blush) since I dashed off that hurried note to you. We got back the following Tues. and D. took the rest of the week off.
I've tried for the last three years to convince Mom and Dad to move here close. I wanted to get it decided and done while they (and I) were in relative good health and to avoid just this very scenario. Sigh. Needless to say, I wasn't successful. Mother considers my area somewhat...er...remote. She loves city in general and NO in particular so I stopped trying. This will be heart breaking for them and I fear, a blow from which they won't really ever recover(if the disaster does come to pass as predicted). I have a brother in Texas but he is not in a position to care for them when the time comes.
But on a better note, son#1 and family are settling into their new digs in Washington State. Grandchild #2 is due the end of next month. Grandchild #1 is still darling(of course)!
It's a beautiful day here, too but it looks like this monster will recurve close to us by tomorrow so I'd better get in gear and get the stuff off the deck & porches. Bbl
