Here I sit...

...with my mind a complete blank.  What to write, what to say.  I know you've all had those days.  We all post about now and again.    Do we have too much on our minds that it all goes fuzzy or not enough going on that it's hard to know where to start. 

The start of the racing season is upon us and hubby and Darla are anxiously waiting.  I like it but not to that extent.  I'm sure today will have the tv on watching the practices etc.  Guess if I want to watch anything I will either have to go to my room or find a video and take the laptop to my room.  Hmmm, seems I may spend much time in there today.  Reading I like to do in quiet so looks like the same place.  Maybe I should go shopping.  Though I don't know what for.  Nothing really desperately needed and not one for just wandering the stores.  What to do, what to do?

Been spending a great deal of time worrying and praying for my cousin Jim.  It's not looking too good.  They had to drain his lung as he has pneumonia.  They have him on a respirator.  You wonder sometimes why such wonderful people have to suffer so much. 

It's nice and sunny today but not very warm.  I'll still take the sun over gloomy, cloudy days anytime.

Well have I rambled on enough?  I think so.  You all have a good day.

  1. I am so sorry Jim is not improving the way we wish and pray he will. But we continue to do that, all of us who are your friends, and look for a better outcome. The waiting and the worry are so hard to deal with sometimes. xoxox

  2. It's hard not to feel the weight of concern for loved ones that are suffering. I realize that much of the last decade of my life was spent with relatives that were ill and eventually past on. The process of working through these things emotionally is a roller coaster ride. There's always hope though sometimes it doesn't seem like it. I have prayed for Jim and believe that things will turn around. Strength to you my friend.

  3. Prayers still in place for Jim. I hope he shows improvement soon.

  4. I do hope Jim does better, so difficult to watch loved ones suffer. Reading helps me take my mind off of things as I get absorbed in the book. Take care.

  5. Hi Terry, I hope Jim is soon on the mend, being ill is no joke, and pneumonia is one of the most worrying.
    Seems you have writers block, it happens to us all doesn't it, sometimes with me it's just a touch of laziness, and once I put other things aside and get going I can't stop.
    I'm trying to catch up with comments etc to-night, but television is good on a Sunday so I don't expect to get very far. be good to yourself. X

  6. It seems like you did a wonderful job posting for nothing to write about! lol That happens to me a lot. If I just sit down and start typing, something usually come to mind. It might not be interesting to others, but it ends up in my blog book, and that is what I am blogging for, anyhow. I have two books now for my children and grandchildren to reference once I am gone.

    It seems to me there is NEVER anything good on tv, so I usually end up on here hoping someone has posted a blog post. I usually find something that interest me,too. :) I pray Jim will recover quickly.

  7. When you get your puppy, would you consider letting it join the pet bloggers as Admiral and Katie belong?

  8. I always get ideas on what to write when I'm away from my computer. When I sit down in front I draw a blank. Then there's the time factor. Sometimes when all is done for the day it's nearly time for bed.
    It sure is tough watching a family member fighting for their lives. I can only hope Jim stabalizes. I've been there with both my parents.
