Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nicely done, msbelle!

Hi Laura! That was an adventure. Turns out I'm a dummy, but I needed a new password anyway.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Hello, Buffistas. To quote Crowley, I'm back.
I can see that. (I just had to provide the response.)

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Hey Zen!
Dylan's favorite uncle died in his sleep last night. He'd been hospitalized all last week due an autoimmune issue with his lungs that had led to a slow decline over the past several years and had just gone into hospice care. The timing was such that people were able to say goodbye, either by FaceTime/email or in person, which I know felt like a blessing to Dylan since both his parents' deaths were sudden and unexpected.
So we've been thinking and talking about death a lot of late, which somehow on Saturday evening led to us singing "Because I could not stop for Death, he kindly stopped for me" to as many tunes as we could think of, all while laughing hysterically.
After which Dylan sat down and wrote a perfectly beautiful farewell email, very loving and full of wry humor, telling Uncle Warren how much he'd meant to him and been his example for the kind of husband, father, and human being he wanted to be, so I guess we needed that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

ION, I have been going to a personal trainer for a few months. I hate doing it, but I need to build stamina and strength while I can, instead of let my chronic illness and back issues turn me into an invalid.
I hate it. I hate it SO MUCH. And the ME/CFS post-exertional malaise is no joke. But it's helping. I still hate it.

I agree that gifts for nurses are very common. Especially of the food variety. Count me in.
David, I have experience with both a g-tube and an NG tube with Grace and also with my friend David who had a G-tube for a few years on ensure as an adult. Oh and both of my kiddos had TPN for a few months. I can answer any questions from the caregiver side if you have them.
