'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My mother really liked today, which was good. I didn't see her last night with the tube in her throat struggling and upset, so I think it was good for my mother to see her so peaceful, and for us all to be together the way we were.
....and at dinner we started talking about what we're going to do to the apartment before I move in.
Oh,Jesse. I am not a hugger and you are not a huggee, but much virtual non-hugging to you and your mom.
I am giving Jesse the biggest big, but from Texas where she won't feel it.
Aww, Jesse, I'm so sorry -- but so glad it was a good end.
I think it was good for my mother to see her so peaceful
It probably really was. For everyone involved the peace was good.
Okay, I have basically worked my ass off, so I'm going to see if it's made it down to the car. I didn't even *realise* I missed lunch today. Doing what? Replaying an hour meeting and taking notes for the second time because I was paranoid about the quality of the first and the ensuing meeting minutes.
But this third presentation will have to wait.
I'm sorry for your loss, Jesse.
I'm glad it was a good day for your mom.
Seems like a perfectly normal conversation to have, taking care of practicalities that you can actually do something about, keep moving (edited to complete the thought I thought I had typed.)
I think it was good for my mother to see her so peaceful
That's a really good thing. Also, what sara said.
Is it wrong that I find Duck Dynasty sort of delightful?
I would hug you people. But am more pleased than ever that I took a public no-hugging stand at work!
The Duck Dynasty family seems to be real-life nice, anyway. I have my perverse love for Inkmaster, so I'm not about to judge.
