Into every life a little rain must fall...

It's been a rough stretch here lately. Between Suzie's aunt, her old next door neighbor and now my grandmother passing away within the last few weeks, things have been rather somber around here. The news only seems to get worse and worse.

My grandmother in Florida has Alzheimer's disease which is rapidly progressing. This has necessitated moving her and my grandfather into a the assisted living portion of the place they live at. This has been very rough on everyone, as it is the second time they will be moving in less than a year. My Aunt Jean has borne most of the brunt of this and has done it willingly. My mother and father have tried to help out as much as they can, but until now they have had lots of things occupying their time.

Now we have gotten news that Sue's sister in law Sally has been in the intensive care unit since Monday due to some breathing problems. No one in her family seems to know what is going on, they are all more interested in their 'numbers' for the tax man. Maybe all of this will finally convince them to get a third party to handle all that nonsense, but I doubt it.

In other depressing news, we are supposed to get another inch or more of rain starting tonight and into tomorrow. There has been a lot of flooding in all the normal areas of the state already (Wayne etc) and now they will have to deal with more. Thank goodness I have a dry basement!


Well, that's enough for now. Time to get back to work...


Till next time,
