Y'all please forgive me - things around here have been a nightmare lately, and I simply have not have time to post or visit. LOTS going on, which I'll report later. In the meantime, watch this incredible video of one day of tornadoes in the US midwest.

And NO, we have not had a tornado at my house. I've just been snowed under with my sister's near-death illness and subsequent care issues; family drug abusers (again!); increasing foot pain and inability to find a doctor willing to take my case; increasing job drama; aging parent situation; and a heartbreaking decision that has kept me in emotional pain for two months now.
But I hope to be back with y'all in the next week!

I'm so sorry you've had to deal with all of that. In some ways, a tornado would be easier! Sending good wishes for peace, health and resolution!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry things are hectic and demanding in your life right now. Hope things get better soon And the video was amazing!
ReplyDeleteSorry about all the problems - be assured you are in my thoughts and prayers. Why do things like this happen to the nice people? I apologise too I have been away from BlogLand and my pals - my previous post to present one explains. I do hope all your problems are sorted out soon, particularly the health issues and the emotional one. Take care and hugs ~ Eddie
ReplyDeleteWow! The aging parent issues are more than enough. Hope things are looking up soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry that you're struggling with such painful situations. Please know that you're in my best thoughts. Wishing you the strength to get through your difficult stuff. Hugs to you, my friend.
ReplyDeleteEthelmae, I'm so sorry to hear that so much drama is hitting you at once. May God give wisdom, comfort and encouragement during these difficult days.
ReplyDeleteIf the emotional issue has anything to do with an aging parent maybe I can help you. I'm 60 and have had to deal with this issue 3 times in the last 10 years. If not, know that you are in my prayers and thoughts as you figure all these health and emotional issues out. (hug)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you were. Post when you are ready and until then good thoughts are coming your way.
ReplyDeleteThanks to you all! One issue at a time is enough, but when they all hit in the course of a couple of months, it's a bit ovrewhelming. And, I hate to admit it, but the worst is perhaps yet to come.
ReplyDeleteThere WILL be light at the end of the tunnel, though!
Rita, who are you? Clicking on your name gives no clues!
Hey there, Girl! Hope it all gets better for you. Take care of yourself and the family too!
ReplyDeleteHello my friend, so sorry for all that you are going through right now. Just take one day at a time, deep breaths and surround yourself with lots of people who love you. Sending big hugs and tons of prayers......:-)
ReplyDeleteHope all is getting better. Please keep me posted on how you're doing. Sorry you've been going through such a tough time :(. At least you have an amazing little one to look forward to very SOON!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap! You've certainly had more than your fair share of issues, and each alone can wear on you physically, mentally, and emotionally. I sure wish you could find a doctor who could help you with the foot issues without surgery! I especially hope, though, that the heart-breaking decision you've been trying to make the last two months doesn't have to do with getting rid of those two precious dogs...but somehow I think it is. (Are they still not being friends with Fred?)
ReplyDeleteThinking of you. (Linda...W2W)
Hugs all way from Wa State. Wish we could all do something for you. But we're here in Spirit and feel free to unload when you're ready.
ReplyDeleteHang in there! Blogging and reading blogs is the last thing I want to do when there's a crisis going on in the family!
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the crazy weather?
Sending hugs and prayers that things have settled down for you and you're feeling better.
