My Cat Ate My Compter
This is gray girl and she has taken a liking to my laptop. She keeps chewing on the keyboard and lying on the keyboard. She totally reprogrammed it today and flipped keyboard pieces off and chewed them. I know she hasn't had a computer course and she can't spell so she can't blog just yet. She is...

A change of plans
I started to have a pity party today but then I decided I didn't want to go. As I thought of all the things I might be missing out on because I am sick and Richard is sick and how things don't get done because we can't or don't have the money and how things used to be, the hospice nurse called to...

Weiging Sorrow
Written April 8, 2007 Today we went to the funeral home to pre-arrange the funeral of my husband. To many it maybe too morbid but in practicality it is the easiest act to have done when death comes.

I've been way off
I accidently turned by wireless switch connection off and have been through contortions of grand magnitude trying to figure out what was wrong. I glad I hung up on waiting 30 minutes yesterday on the internest provider now. Glasses helped finally to find the switch. It is awfully tiny. Acturally, I...

I slept until almost noon
Of course I had was up from 3am to 7am but still it was a welcomed treat. Richard had got up and unlocked the door and the Hospice nurse woke me up when she came. I hadn't expected her so soon. She usually doesn't come until late afternoon. I had to scurry to finish her Christmas present. I had...

Love Will Heal All Breaks
I came as an angel, my purpose to spread love. Enclosed within this fragile body and so many burdens to bear. As the weight increased upon my back, my purpose I forgot. Faint memories drifted through my mind but stress would push them out. Then one day, the veil was lifted and memories flooded from...
