Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

That’s really rough Laura.

And Pix too, differently.

My dad is in the hospital again, after some really alarming episodes of weakness where he couldn’t stand or walk. Looks to be related to kidney issues which also may or may not have implicated his heart.

Tough week for old men.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry for your loss, Pix.

I hope they resolve your dad's issues quickly, Brenda.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

So sorry all of you dealing with loss, either of a person or of a persons health.

And because is should be a separate post, I had a really fucking long morning. I had another mammogram today, followed by a 45 minute ultrasound and then ANOTHER ultrasound on a “better” machine. Good news is that I have a wonky lymph node and they are going to watch it. I need to go back in six months. I am sore as hell and feel like I’ve been repeatedly punched in my right breast, but yay for not going back for six months!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Rough day, y'all! I'm sorry.

I hope wonky just equals harmlessly funny looking, Scrappy.
