(The broken hip is one of those "no place is safe" stories. Her mother went downstairs in the assisted living place to get her mail, and another resident fell on her.) She just got word that she had a fire in her house, apparently caused by lighting. The firemen got the fire out, but they used lots of water. She has thousands of books. Literally thousands. She can't get home until tomorrow.
Oh Ginger. The poor things. All the good thoughts in the world to them both.
(Yonks from now, I will not spit my dentures onto my monitor if I read about the same sort of accident happening to you.)
sending out ~ma for Ginger's friend's mom. That is scary. I hate that no place is safe!
Also, WTF is up with Erin's day? Does the universe not KNOW that she is ERIN and FABULOUS and on VACATION!? Universe, it's like I don't even know you anymore.
I have belly danced tonight!!! It is cool as all get out! BUt I wrenched my back during the rib/chest isolation circle moves, so yech. But I figure once my body gets that it's SUPPOSED to be moving like that, things should get in the groove.
sending the ma~~~ out to Ginger's friend
ma ~ma and book ~ma for your friend, Ginger. Oy.
Book~ma to your friend, Ginger. Lots of it.
I can understand many coughs makeing my chest/lungs hurt, but one cough should not leave me feeling like my lungs are seared.
I have begun LJing for the first time in 2 years. I an egriggs, if you are so inclined.
Don't expect anything smart from mr today -- it's all about the stupid, more like.
OH no! Sending all kinds of ~ma to both of them, Ginger. As Kristin said, the books! But then her poor mom... I have to admit, I bit my lip, hard, when I read that the other woman fell on her.
Yikes, Ginger! All sorts of ~ma to both of them.
{{{Erin}}} I'm sorry your day was so awful. I hope you feel better soon.
The work deadline continues to have a stranglehold on my time & sanity. At this point, I am kinda resigned to having to work part of the weekend. I was so hoping it wouldn't come to that, but it looks like it will. I am a over-tired, over-stressed, and AMAZINGLY cranky goth. Not so much with the perky, I'm afraid.
Ugh, Erin. I hate dealing with that stuff. I hope your soup and wine have helped. Getting it all sorted -ma to you.
Much -ma to your friend and her mother, Ginger.

In older news, and just having caught up:
I love the Snakes on a Plane logo.
Hi, Margaret-Not-Thatcher!
I hope everyone with the Ick is feeling better and that Beverly's tooth is fixed - ouch.
Yay, Erin, on first year completion!
Hugs for P-C and the family stuff.
Sorry for Raq's truly awful day with the car, too.
Oh, and yay for K-Bug's team!
I'm sure I missed stuff. My bad. I'm back from three lovely, relaxing days at the beach visiting my aunt.
ETA: I know one thing I forgot - I saw the "white, square, looked like a tooth but wasn't" story on lj earlier, Cindy. I have no words. Other than the obvious glad he's OK.
