I have been so neglectful with my blog I think I need 30 lashes with a wet noodle.
Daughter Darla had a bit of a rough time after her surgery. She had the nausea for a few days and wasn't allow to come home until yesterday. She is feeling better though tired of course and dozes a lot. Has her Kindle loades and will have her laptop close to aide against boredom.
Cousin Mary is having a bit of a tough time with Jim passing. Some people just don't seem to understand giving her time. Calling and asking unnecessary questions etc. Though I know most mean well, questions like "how did he die" are totally wrong. I know she'll be okay. She is one strong lady and has a large loving family to help in anyway she needs us. It will just take time.
Been going through pictures again. Posted some, but they were nice ones. Came across some from weddings and graduations we attended in Florida some years ago. I think they would like them so I'm putting them aside for when they come for the family reunion this summer. Will go through more and see what I can find for others and bag and tag them too. There are, of course, people in them that are no longer with us, so I'm sure the families will appreciate them.
Well I guess I had better get back no good. You all behave now.
It sure has been a trying week for your family. It's good Mary has such a loving family to help her. Hope Darla gets well soon. I went through that hollowed out feeling and it is weird. Well for me ennaway. Tell her I wish her a speedy recovery so she can whip you with ah noodle ;-)
ReplyDeleteTake care.
My thoughts are with Mary. I know what she is going through. Sometimes the best thing is to be left alone for awhile. I am glad she has her family for backup.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for a speedy recovery for Darla!!
I can well imagine the awfulness of being asked such qur=estions. Even answering those regarding my brother Paul who passed a year ago last June was hard. Like, people...have mercy, will you?
ReplyDeleteBlessings on Mary and thank goodness she does have that wonderful family that all of you are. You know me, Terry..I really mean that. I think the world of you guys.
I will not behave. It's my day off. I just ran with sissors and I sneered at the F.B.I. warning at the begining of a dvd. Take that Federales!
ReplyDeleteI got a Kindle App for my i-touch but for some reason it's not letting me access any of the books we've purchased...it's making my puzzler sore. I pray that things improve for everyone, I know how difficult it is when a dear one passes and it's quite true that some just don't know what it's like though they can be well meaning. Have a good day my friend.
ReplyDeleteWhen my dad died, no one at my work said a thing. I would have given a million dollars if ANYBODY had asked how he died....why he died....when he died....or even acknowleged that he DID die. I guess different people handle grief different ways. I would have taken any interest at all to mean that that person cared about him and me. I found out later that our boss didn't bother to let anyone know and months passed before someone asked how my dad was doing with chemo.
