Long time away again.

OK, so I've not posted for a bit. Not that I don't want to, just that life gets a bit long in the day. (do I hear violins playing for me?) I'm borrowing a car cuz my old wagon gave up the ghost. It broke a belt and the dealership guy said to drive it to the shop and they'd fix it. I did, they did, but in the process of the drive it overheated and wrecked something else (BIG!). So am driving an old lady car and as a concession to myself, have added my Grateful Dead teddy bear to the dash. Family members' various illnesses have complicated. We are now dealing with congestive heart failure, kidney failure, considerable edema, depression (them clinical, me simply moody), broken bones, lack of and curiously altered appetites and food problems.

Am getting my work done, but have little time for my therapeutic fun things like beating up innocent pieces of lumber and blogging this. The scion is doing well tho. He's a smart kid and does well in the few extracurricular activities that he chooses. His grades are great this term (A's across the board). I think that he's finally gotten the hang of (and the hankerin' to) do well in school.


More later.
