It is such good news about Wiley, and I am sorry I did not comment yesterday, but I had such a head ache. I remember coming off of 47 years of drug and achahol abuse and I know how it feels to just not care anymore...Hold him close.

It is wonderful that Wiley is improving, and that you are there ready and willing and able to give him loving support.  What a blessing.

Hello I am your wandering Gnome Psychopathologist yes it is in the Oxford Concise Dictary . dicomary dicallyarty oh, shut up. We gnomes know what is what, The thing is Kabu all our lives we have to repress sad feelings if we did not we would not continue to function. Now our Wiley probably through circumstances needs to let this sadness escape, I truly believe it can through tears, not every thing obviously but enough to release the overflow. Once this has completed its function I think he will be OK. If anyone disagrees they will be fined ten dollars which I will hold for Homeless Gnomes.

Praises, love, laughter and all sorts of wonderful responses at our hours for this post. I need to know what they did for him. Oh this is so wonderful. May he come back to the full health he knew when you first arrived. Both of you be totally blessed and healed.

This is so beautiful - the two of you happy, and the sun shining again

in Camelot North. You're so right about our good old days - its difficult for me to grasp the concept that today is going to be one of the good old days fifty years from now.

Needless to say, that is wonderful news about Sir Wiley. And you're right . . . the world has been changing, and probably getting worse and worse as the years have dragged on. My wife and I also try to keep things simple, and not have too many dealings with the "outside world," when we can help it. There's a song by the band The Police whose title I sometimes try to keep in the back of my mind: "When The World Is Runnin' Down, You Make The Best Of What's Still Around." And the best is a loving partner! You two are truly blessed . . .

That's wonderful news of Wiley!  The bible tells us we are to be content wherever we are; not be jealous of some one or some thing but to live in peace with one another and so I would say you two are in the right place, at the right time and surely, of the right Spirit!! BLESSINGS TO BOTH OF YOU.

kabu, we do live in a not-very-inviting-world, yet we can choose our lifestyle and to heck with the rest. that's what i love about iowa. so many are old and aging though we still have the industrious to keep us young. i sound so old. reflective maybe. just finished writing a short short and somehow mr. greysome got into it. as super hero cat who ripped the eyes out of two adopted children who were molesting one another. thank you for your loving support as re my messed up family. funny how from the outside we can look so normal. i think that issue is much more prevalent than we care to realize. or maybe i just went to too many aa meetings in la where so many people were running away from all that pain in their childhoods. it's only through God and his Holy Spirit and the bible that i get my stability. i wanted to run away a million miles after seeing an episode of law and order svu the other night. children were being molested. but God gave me a dream as he so often does and revealed my true heart --- that i want to stay here in iowa at my roots at least for now and i woke up settled and not wanting to run at all. i'm so glad john wiley is feeling better. he sounds like such a dear man and i am so glad God brought you two together in a way which is no longer unconventional in this day and age. well, i've written a post of a comment. i guess that is all i have to say other than i bet you have had a really great life and overall i think i have too. as the song goes, "you got to eliminate the negative, accentuate the positive..." God Bless... pear
