It is shaping up to be a difficult year.
Ken was in the hospital for a very hard couple of weeks. He had pneumonia and they finally found a kidney stone (size of a golf ball!). He spent a couple of days in the ICU w/ a number of tubes trying to get him stable and feeling better. It was very hard on the family. He is home and recovering, they will remove the stone once he is strong enough to handle the tx.
My dad's sister- Aunt Connie- passed away this week. She has been battling breast cancer for 4 years. She has been fighting hard. We are so proud. She is no longer in pain, but was taken too early and has left an awful hole. My heart aches for my Uncle, my grandfather and deeply for my dad. So sad, so scary and f'n sucks.
I have been spending my days lamenting the missed moments and crying over the quilt I didn't finish. Yes, the bugger I have been working on hand quilting for what a year now, nope, didn't finish it in time. Yeah, I suck. But I am really having a hard time shaking all this off. My faith is strong, I am feeling God's love, but really are you serious? Don't get me wrong, I don't feel the why me's because it isn't happening to me; and I am not suffering as those around me are, but seriously, can it let up just a bit? So I am just kick'n around, not getting anything accomplished and not even able to distract myself.
May you hold yours closer and hug them tighter; may you call those you think of, mend fences, kiss faces, smile and say I Love You. May you feel peace and love in your heart. May you be blessed by those you love.
I Love You!
