Yeah, New York is that way.
Consuela, I've only been to Colorado a couple times. The first time I suffered horribly from altitude sickness. The next time I super hydrated for a few days before the trip and had no trouble at all. Your father is indeed blessed to have his caring children with him during this time of grief.
My dad passed at 62 and we were really worried about mom. She has been the caretaker for so many years and was in a place where she felt she no longer had purpose. That was 30 years ago this past spring and she will be 92 this summer. No one honest will say it is a smooth and easy process, but we do manage to go forward.
Ah jeez -- the person I'm supposed to be interviewing with this afternoon is home sick. They offered to do it via Skype from their office, or to reschedule for later this week. I took a vacation day today, so I should do the Skype one, right? Ugh. Suboptimal for everyone!
I shared a link on Facebook about a little girl who made a protest of Westboro Baptist Church by selling pink lemonade. First of all that's pretty awesome. It still kinda weirds me out that one of the members used to be a co-worker of mine.
Well, crap. I killed the thread.
At least we can expect the Westboro members to show up for the thread funeral.
I saw that story from your link, Gud! Pretty cool stuff. She even looked a bit like Flea's Casper.
We're fogged in in San Francisco this morning. Emmett's first day of summer break. He rumbled out of bed, so JZ and I watching Mad Men, got a bowl of cereal and retired to his room where he's either scrolling through tumblrs or reading the latest Badass book. (Which I recommend for all history loving peeps.)
This morning I traded my customary 2-mile walk for an hour of vigorous back exercise. Reset the NGA clock to zero!
It's raining here so no work for the yard and only catch-up paperwork for me. boo.
Woot! And I ain't talking about msbelle's paperwork.
