ES and his SO have been here the last two nights. What a relief it is to have company. Methinks the isolation factor up here really is reaching critical. Still holding steady, though. I hope. Prayers...

Am I settling in to the new routine? Still not quite sure what that routine will be, but this Sunday evening finds me feeling like I can handle whatever routine settles in from here. The business end...

I was woke from a gentle sleep by a text stream from hubs and the DIL. The DIL was discharged from the psych hospital yesterday. Details unavailable and not that interesting, anyway. The DIL remains...

YS woke me from a long nap last evening to let me know he was his children back to the home front. He is hoping to tend kid-hostile hospital business for his wife today. As is the characteristic of...

Brothers seem to be the theme of the week. My own big brother's death. My two middle-aged sons knocking out windows. Random tales of brotherly disputes seem to be everywhere, well swirled with random...

I am frequently spooked by the too many similarities between YS and Hubs. It plays holy hell on my Incest Survivor Syndrome. It is a simple fact that YS looks more like that cute neighbor I married...

A tenant found in multiple theologies is that the Cosmic Powers donae give you more than their faith in you says you can handle. Yesterday evening, as hubs and I were fielding the myriad of details...

No amount of skepticism has been able to reason me out of the notion that what I can perceive with my physical senses is all there is to the world. Shoot. I don't even have words to describe my...

Big Bro's death and the DIL's attempted suicide happening on the same day is a pretty wicked twist. In yesterday's skype sessions with his son, YS looked dangerously close to a psychotic break,...

Guess the proverbial other foot is falling. My big brother died yesterday at 64 or 65 years old. Forgot to ask what delivered the fatal blow, but I am not sure I value that bit of information much....

The daughter-in-law attempted suicide today. The details are still vague. YS is currently chasing her through the harrowing halls of ER aftermath. GS (3) is with me 190 miles north of the domestic...

Yesterday started on an intense note in the in-law house. Lots of groaning muscles in all parties. Even GS. He was a mobile oil slick by the time I dragged him to the "rain bath" (shower) on Friday...
-
Yesterday's rough start grew in to an incredibly productive day. The other brother and his family showed up and tackled the attic with us while fielding a hefty list of etceteras. I am tempted to...

It was, naturally enough, easier to start from the urban homestead. All of the players could coordinate on fairly short time schedules. Adding 3 and 5 hour drives to the starting point complicates...

Time to get serious about emptying the in-law house. A contract has been signed for the sale of the property with a March 1st closing date. It ain't over 'till its over, but. . . It is time. I spent...
