oh omnis! I'm glad he is home. but damn.
I don't care if it is an orgy of death, there's still such a thing as a napkin.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Yowza, omnis! I'm glad he's okay and at home, but yowza!

Yikes, omnis. I'm glad he is alright, but how scary.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Yipes omnis! Glad he's home now.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Scary, omnis. Glad he's home.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Omnis, I'm glad that your brother's news was as good as it was for something as bad as a heart attack.
Aims, I am relieved to see that the persona non grata thing was a misunderstanding; I was wracking my brain trying to think of who might have said anything to make you feel like you were not wanted here, and who clearly needed some things explained to them. Now, dictionaries might be the solution to more than one issue here, so to speak. I mean, I'm sure more than one of us have a nice solid unabridged that is collecting dust since it got so easy to look up words on the internet and/or dictionary apps. And I have this image in my head of many Buffistas gathering from near and far bringing their enormous tomes and stacking them like blocks of ice or perhaps like bales of hay to build you a warm, safe, and learned home. Well, the image is now the form of the ~ma I am sending for you and MM and Em.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
And some eye roll at my sister for her definition of "all is ok".

Aims, I am so sorry. I have complete empathy; we've been through house hell (eviction very real) and it's awful. Broke, too, and it's SO STRESSFUL. It just sucks. I feel so bad for you guys. And on your anniversary? Honey, that...I don't even. So not fair.
I second the camping out in the backyard. Use that firepit! Not all these ideas are feasible, but [link]
It SUCKS that you have to decide between money or this planned trip, but I would have to say you will need the money. And it's so frustrating.
I'm so sorry. I wish I could do something.
omnis, I am glad that things went as well as they could. Someone sent me such a vague message about a family member, I would freak and go all phone-crazy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The only thing that leads me against camping in the backyard is that we are in the midst of skunk migration season and just over the past week or so, I've had at least 4 baby skunks in our yard which leads us to believe momma is near. As we went down that road with the dogs last fall, I am not keen on repeating that horror. Maybe there is a campground closer that won't take a million dollars in gas to get to and has some cool touristy things nearby.
And thank you all for the support and ~ma and just all of your awesomeness. I can't talk a lot about it on FB because it involves one of my best friends and I've been feeling quite lonely.

Someone sent me such a vague message about a family member, I would freak and go all phone-crazy.I was the end of the phone tree. And yes, I was on the throne when he called. Timing. Gotta love it. HAD to take the call. Then my sister texted while on the phone with him asking if I had talked with him yet (she was getting tired, and wanted me to call to talk about it)
Crazy day.
Aims, is there a KOA nearby?
eta: fix KOA, not HOA. duh.
