Tue: some news, good and bad

A friend of mine and a very dear friend of my mom's, told us this morn that she is leaving in about 2 weeks to move back to Texas. She is divorcing her abusive husband (which is good) but she is leaving . She has early altzheimer's and her memory is already going. poor poor lady... she is so sweet and we love her so much. i wish she didn't have to go. i told her that she has to stay at least till my birthday (Oct 5) and party with me or i'll be so mad. i told her that we will call her every several days to remind her since her memory lasts only a few minutes at a time. hopefully she'll forget that she is supposed to move. but i'm behind her 100% for the divorce, she deserves so much better than him! i think maybe we should get a video camera and tape us hangin out so that when she leaves, she can take a recording of us, hopefully some memories of us will stay with her and when she plays the tape, she will smile. We will miss her so much.  Got news back from the VA today that they have denied my apeal for the fibromyalgia claim. i'm, not giving up! those fuckin bastards! i'm apealing again, and if i have to go to DC and go to court over this, i will!!!!  in good news... the VA home laon guarantee has approved of the house to buy! yippee! yippee! i'm so excited about the move but dread the work of packing. pray it all goes well!also in good news, my car is now fixed and all problems seemed to have been solved. hope it stays that way. well God bless everyone here and thank you all for your support! you all rock!
