My Insanity

is slowly going away.
I hope to return to full sanity within a few weeks.

The nephews are both in school...well, except for the little one. He starts Kindergarten Tues ..has a day off Wed (which I've decided to make an adventure day and am taking off) and starts back full swing Thurs.
The oldest is in 2nd grade and hasn't said a word about school...so I have no idea if he's happy to be back or not.

Dad's health has been up and down...there were a few days when I thought he might end up at Duke University Hospital but he managed to get over the angina attacks. He's got a new Cardio specialist who's putting him through the paces, trying to find out what's going on with his angina attacks.

Granny's not doing all that great. She drove her car into the Marsh (her and Granddad Jewel live on the Intracostal waterway). Luckily it was low tide. How she managed to walk through razor sharp reeds and oyster beds without getting cut to shreds, I have no idea...all I know is that God's looking out for her. She spent a few days at my house and it was so hard to talk to her--she kept zoning out and was very obsessed with taking her meds. Mom says she'll come live with her, but I really believe she would be better at an Alzheimer's home--a place that deals with Alz victims exclusively. Say your prayers for her, if you pray. I appreciate it...if you do.

Al and I are still together... he's slowly recovering from his auto wreck. But the meds they have him on are really strong and I'm questioning the doctor's procedures--which Al doesn't like. I just want him well and to me if your meds make you feel sick afterwards--then they're the wrong meds. And my opinion is that Doctors are not Gods. They have opinions and ideas that are very human...and if their procedures don't work...then move on to another doctor.

As for me.. I'm doing ok. Not getting a chance to write much. Working too many hours at the studio, taking up dad's slack and trying to keep an eye on Granny and Al...plus watch the nephews...

is there any Sher time? No...not much but I keep hoping that there will be soon.

Take care..all..

I miss my blog friends.
Love ya.

I've been thinking about you and wondering about you.

I agree w/ the meds for Al. If he's getting sick from it, doesn't sound like the right stuff.

I will keep your grandmother in my thoughts and prayers. Altho I don't pray as often as I should...

I hope they find out what ailing ur father. I can imagine how stressful that is.

Stay well dear. :)
