Good Monday Morning
Yes I am already up and mad as hell!!! One I cannot sleep, but two, I made a very huge post about ready to hit submit and we had a power failure....I am sure due to the high winds once again!
I am not going to sit here and try and remember everything I said for fear we will have another power outage! Maybe on Tuesday I will try again...or later today...who knows.
Please if you do nothing else today....give Vicki M your support...she needs all of us to get her through saying goodbye again. Mike and all the other soliders really give up a lot so we can have our freedom!!
Also my boys and their dad need prayers....my son's grandmother passed away today. Their dad might not even know yet as he was making his way back to Clearlake and it is a very long trek. I worry for their father because he is of weak mind...a very depressed person and paranoid. I do not know how he is going to get through this because he lived with his mother and my son's feel he is going to blame them for her dying while he was gone. Their dad has no one, but the boys now.
Please give up those prayers for Sue too....she has really gone through an ordeal with the kidney stones and I hope Sue that with the stent coming out today you will mend quickly!
Know that you all mean a lot to me....and I care!
Have a great day everyone!!!

Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations.
I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty,
believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.

That is for sure weird timing that the boys' dad's mom dies JUST when he leaves her for awhile... you know, I can't help but think that she may have somehow subconsciously CHOSEN a time when he was away in an effort to make it easier for him...
I hope he chooses to look at it that way, rather than to play "blame" games, or to live with guilt...So sorry to hear about this loss for your boys, Janine...
God bless your family as this loss is mourned...

My thoughts are with your family today, a really horrible situation that I pray turns out OK for everyone involved. I noticed someone mentioned wondering if she picked a time when he was away to pass, and I can say I totally believe that. Chris's Mom waited until her mom (Marcy) was there because she knew Marcy would want it that way, and Chris's other grandmother (Carmen) waited four days for me and Chris to leave her bedside (we literally lived at the hospital for almost a week!) to pass, Carmen left us within a few hours of us coming home to change and shower.
My thoughts are also with Vicki and her kids, she is such a strong woman, I cannot imagine having to say THAT goodbye over and over, I don't know if I could do it.
Wow...I know it has only been a few days but you guys are right, time flies once you get that surgery date! I am starting to get a little nervous and scared. I guess it all finally caught up to me! LOL
My fantabulous SP ordered me some chewable vitamins, so that is one less thing I have to do before surgery! Yay! Can't say how much of a help that is! Now I just need to grab a few canisters of protein powder and get the house in order. Oh, and get my head wrapped around it! LOL
Anyhow...Marcus has the day off from school so we are hanging out today, he asked if I would teach him to play Clue today. I think he might be a little young yet, but I'm gonna try!
I hope everyone has a great day, don't let "The Mondays" run you over!
