'Harm's Way'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
This house was built in 1890. It's incredibly drafty, the windows are all single pane, and during the winter, I put up insulated curtains on the big windows, but it's still freezing.Yup, that's why you can hear everything. I'd venture to guess the insulation in the walls is nil or next to nil. If you can insulate for weather, the noise transmission will decrease greatly.
Actually my Dad even said he was really happy that I had moved. It was on Friday which was a really hard day for him and it was out of the blue. I managed to not completely cry. I am never forgetting that moment.
Oh. I'm so glad. And I'm so sorry about the slow loss you are going through. {{Cass}} Thank you for sharing with us.
Also, {{Scrappy}} Many thoughts for you and your wonderful kick ass mom and your family.
We have been Buffista-ing up New Orleans this weekend, though sadly, Aims will be leaving us in the morning. Everyone should have an Aims visit, it's so awesome!
Awwwwww! I have been having a great time. I really, really needed this getaway and Nora, Tom, and smonster have been fabulous.
Cass, I am so sorry. I am glad you and your dad got to have that moment, but how difficult for you, love. I wish there was more I could say.
Scrappy, so much ma for your mom and your family. I am glad you were able to be there with her.
I miss Joe and Em like crazy, but damn I do not want to get back to real life. There is still food here to eat!!!
Love those moments, Cass, wallow in them as much as you can.

Oh Cass, I am so sorry. It's one of the hardest things you'll ever go through. I won't lie and say it gets better because it doesn't, but you do eventually come to terms with it and learn to hold on tightly to moments like that one.
Cass, it's wonderful you and your dad had that moment. I would have bawled
He'd be horrified at his life now. The physical limitations are huge but it's the mental impairment that breaks my heart. THIS. This is what happened to my dad's mom, it was her worst fear and it was heartbreaking and rage-inducing (at the universe.) I am so sorry, love, but glad you can spend time, no matter how painful in moments, with your daddy.
Oh Cass. It's so hard, and I'm so sorry. You are such a good person.

I don't think comforting is the right word, but this helps. Thank you. I can't really articulate it better right now but it's actually better to hear that, yes, it's awful, realistically going to get worse but that I will also make it through. That I will always have the memories of my Dad and maybe I can add a few more good memories.
