It's a cold, and it seems to be a minor one at that. I'll sleep better tonight, and I'm sure that tomorrow will show even more improvement.
Our good news has not yet happened, although we have assurance that it is going to happen. So. We will see.
Got word that my youngest daughter will be coming home from the UK for a week before Christmas. Her grandfather's cancer has returned, and he's decided not to do treatment. So she and her brother will fly out to see their father and grandfather for a couple days. After they return home, the rest of the family will gather there for a few days. It is always a magical time to have all the grandchildren in one place, so I'm quite looking forward to that, especially just before Christmas.
Things do not look very promising for a relative here, either, one foot in this world, the other in the next. Tim and I were away when meals were requested for the family. My daughter is taking a meal over tomorrow. We will send soda and water along with her.
She will rest in the little cemetery across the road from us. Today, Tim watched as they selected her place. I still have not quite wrapped my head around the suddenness of it all, and I grieve for my nieces and nephew and their children as they wait.
We are within a week of elections, and I cannot wait for this to be done.
I am so sorry about those who are ill. Peace to your family.
ReplyDeleteDebby I am so sorry to hear your sad news. Bad news seem to come in bursts and unfortunately so often coincides with when you are feeling least able to deal with it. Virtual hugs and best wishes for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you recover from your cold quickly so that you can be out and about again as soon as possible.
ps. I love the Differences of Opinion poem. I work with someone like that - not the flat earth exactly, but definitely relating to conspiracy theories, health, politics etc.
