Actually, I don't like day
It reminds me of the stuff I don't have in my daily life, like a who loves me.
I left home yesterday to come to the city, so I could avoid the annual Valentine's Day dinner and dance our little community has. And, I'm not going back home until the offending day is over. Besides, I see the Orthopaedic Surgeon on monday, so I can see why my foot isn't healing as fast as I want it to. It's still swollen, and my surgery was November 29/04
My oldest daughter, Rebecca, was admitted to hospital yesterday, with type 1 Diabetes. She wasn't presenting with any symptoms, but a routine urinalysis showed high sugar, so further tests were done. She found out a few days ago, but didn't tell me until yesterday. Unfortunately I was the last person she told, and she swore all others to secrecy, so I feel slighted as well as terribly worried.
Jim-Bob had to be put down on thursday, as both of his back legs snapped off. The frostbite was just too much for his little limbs. I haven't felt like eating, and have had terrible nightmares since, so I look like death warmed over.
I am going to a Symphony concert tonight. My kids' Dad is the guest artist, and we have great seats. I'm taking my 5 boys, my Mom, my Aunt, and me. The van will be full.
Tabitha couldn't go because she didn't have a sitter, and Rebecca is now in the hospital, so she can't go either.
I'm trying hard to NOT think about Mr. O this weekend, but the more I try to NOT think about him, the more I miss him
Well, everyone take care.

Stupid Smelly Sappy Hearts Day to you too!
Yeah! I agree with that sentiment and always have.
One of the early *bad signs capitalism!

Sad day for your troubles
Losing Jim-Bob must of be very hard since he was your buddy.

Best wishes to your daughter taking proper care of herself with her new diagnosis. Sounds like you have more going on before sunrise than I will before a week of sunsets

Catching up on your life Karen, its hard reading at times. To find a friend who helped you to grieve and then to lose him like that, is heart breaking.
