thanks Haz - its atrange - i dont feel too bad at the moment but i am not sure how i will feel later
2:47 am
Haz1558

I think any funeral where the death is unexpected has an air of unreality about it - the kind of feeling that this can't and shouldn't be happening. I suppose you feel a responsibility for helping to support your sister through this. You can't anticipate how you're going to feel.

4:46 am
ursh

Here we get a free trial pair of disposable contacts to see how it goes - must go and get organised
4:46 am
ursh

but the tri focals sounds promising - note to self - get bum into gear!!
4:47 am
mrpresident

4:47 am
mrpresident

luv ya ursh!! you will do well with tri-focals

Do you need me to do / bring anything...besides watch the house?

I think high school graduation is such a huge transition. Kids leave the know world of schooling and venture out into adult living.

i might try to head down there this weekend.
im terrible with visiting people in the hospital, but i know i probably should.
and at the very least, i could take mom out to lunch and/or help her run errands or clean the house or something. im sure shes been neglecting basic stuff to be at the hospital with him.
10:21 am
Judi

I'm sure she'd be greatly appreciative of anything you do, Eva.

today i have no crossys tidbit but a nice happy story if you are all patient while i post it..it is about half a page...
12:52 pm
crosshair

Today while going to a oncology appt,i saw something I would share with my babble friends. Please excuse the grammar,punctuation and any other errors i may make as this is a bit of beauty I am sharing and not a university entrance exam lol...For the last week or so we have had lots of rain in this area and as a result of that the trees are in full bloom and the grass lush and healthy. We were driving along a bit of highway that was wide open on our left and along range of small grassy hillocks of about 15 feet in height on our right that carried on for about 2 miles or so.......
12:53 pm
crosshair

Today is our first sunny day in a while and although bright wish sunlight it is also very windy(i would hazard a guess at 50 mph crosswinds) but a fine day for all that. We were relishing the crisp clean air and the sunshine and I was enjoying the way it brought the colour of fire in to my wifes long hair and and a smile to her face as she held my hand in encouragement and in anticipation of a clean bill of health....
12:53 pm
crosshair

Land and sea are friendly adversaries of old,the one being permanence at rest and permanence in motion,one standing firm while the other seeks to gain a foothold and chip away at the other,but today I saw land change its look and just for a moment or two flatter its old adversary the sea.....
12:54 pm
crosshair

The wind as I said was coming from the west and cutting across our bow as it were and striking upon the grassy hills in such a way that the wife and I smiled and laughed in delight at the effect it had on the tall and vibrant grass. The wind was making the tall grass bend over and ripple in light and dark greens in a pattern much like waves dancing upon the ocean .Watching it shimmer and dance across the hill like that made the illusion so real that I almost expected to hear the green waves crash on some unseen shore over the other side of the hill. Even the odd bright dandelion among the grass joined in the mirage,dancing in delight like a small startled saffron fish. W watched a moment longer as the green waves of grass whipped back and forth and the dandelion fish dove for a moment only to surface again to soak up the sun and we drove on..
12:54 pm

A camera we did not have and would of done it no justice,a video camera we do not own,so this for you is a snapshot taken my my minds eye and written down here to share with you
