Re: confession session and good thoughts tuesday
Confession: This whole waiting for my grandfather to pass thing is horrible. I mean I've known for a long time that he was going to die-I've been preparing myself forever, but this is just torture. I really thought that i had said goodbye to him for the last time on Thursday. I had my tears with him and conversations about it being okay for him to go and everything. But you've gotta love my stubborn grandfather for hanging on as long as he can. Now it's just torture to see him like he is and my poor, poor grandmother. UGH. She has dimensia, but has these moments that she sort of gets what's going on and she just sobs hysterically. I feel like I (and my whole family) are just stuck in limbo. No one wants to do anything because we know he is going to die soon...my poor brother is supposed to go away tomorrow for a 2 week fishing trip that he has been looking forward to for years and he is all kinds of stressed out about it. And I'm just so damn sad.
Good Thoughts to all of you that are dealing with death, illness, etc.
Sarah, I'm so sorry, that is really tough. We went through the same thing with my aunt. I went to say goodbye at the hospital on Sunday night thinking she wouldn't make it through the night, and she didn't pass until Friday. It was a very long week for everyone. I thought maybe my aunt had some unfinished business that she was resolving; maybe that is the case with your grandfather too. Many good thoughts going out to you and your family.
Good thoughts to my DH; he is submitting his resume for a job that he would LOVE and man he would be so happy to be employed after 2 years of nothing! I would be happy too because we could really use another income. Even though it won't be a lot, it would be his foot in the door and a stable job.
good thoughts & *hugs* to sarah & her family
good thoughts to pjscooby's cousins
good thoughts to everyone
confession: my apartment is a pit - my suitcase is still half unpacked in the living room, tons of clothes need to be folded/put away, etc... and i really have no interest in tackling any of it even though i absolutely have to.
lots of good thoughts and *job vibes* to your DH!!
Lots of good thoughts to all of you - Sarah, Pam and your family, to Kristen's husband... sending you all peaceful, healing thoughts and job vibes (and health vibes where needed too!).
Confession: I am not doing well with working from home. I don't have an "office" so I can either work in my living room at a small desk with the best computer or work in the den downstairs with a big desk but crappy and slow computer. But I don't have my own little room where I can close the door and think. And with a roommate I feel distracted just b/c I know I'm not home alone. He does his best to stay out of the way but I just know he's here so it throws me off. I really need to find a new way to focus :-(
Confession: I really hope I work a bunch of hours today/tomorrow so that on daycare day on Thursday I can make an eye exam appointment and have a little time to myself! I need new glasses so badly!!
