Hey strangers!
Hey! I've been MIA for a LOOOONG time. I've just been so busy. Here are some of my updates... My grandfather was put in a home after breaking his hip. My grandmother is insanely stubborn and so she really pushed for him to come home. He fell again, as my grandmother was helping him up, and both of them got hurt. She's ok now, I don't think it was more than bumps and bruises. He went to a rehab facility where they're reteaching him how to walk. He should be ready to come home again sometime this week.
DH's aunt has been sick for months. She passed away last week, the funeral was on Friday. She was in a lot of pain, so it's a blessing she didn't have to suffer any longer.
I've been swamped at school/work but still feel like I'm not getting anywhere. And I'm still having daily existential breakdowns on the meaning of life relating to my field... because I don't know how much longer I can live like this. Also, we celebrated our anniversary yesterday, it's crazy how fast time flies.
Anyways, I hope everyone is doing well, and I'll try to be around more!
Re: Hey strangers!
Goodness! Anything good going on?
Sorry this is all happening. Sounds like a bummer. But we're happy to have you back!
Happy Anniversary!
I don't know. I fail at Nesting.
Yeah... but until I'm rich and famous, that won't pay the bills... ::sigh::. I've been trying to write as much as I can but it's hard when I'm so drained from work... and working 7 days a week.
Well hello there! Sorry to hear about all the tragedies lately, but it sounds like you've got it all in perspective.
I just wanted to say that you and your families will be in my T&P's while you deal with all the crazy stuff that seems to be happening right now.
I'm also a busy work and school person, so I can totally relate. I keep telling myself it just HAS to get better. Hope to see you around some more!
