I posted a kitty pic for you earlier FJ. Maybe yin's could donate the pork to local homeless shelter or food bank.

It's been a long two weeks.
The wife has been in lots of pain after the kidney stone procedure, talking to her doctors almost every day this week adjusting meds as the gravel continues to flow Next procedure is Tuesday. It's been tough.

Work has been crazy. Have a project the vendor hosed us on (previous implementation lead actually did only about half of what he said he did, will little documentation either way). So I'm trying to corral that mess.

Coming up on the 7 year anniversary of my mom's death. Shortened days cranking up the SAD. All motivation is gone tonight, knowing I have to get all the laundry done tomorrow (did the running around shopping today), get food prep done for the week, clean what I can, and emotionally steel myself for the challenges this coming week.

I have had a job or responsibilities for almost 50 years now. I am ready for someone to adopt me. LOL

OH boy...ya'll have been through the wringer for sure. So sorry it's been so rough. I've been through so much with DH that I know that "is it ever going to end" feeling. I'm rooting for ya'll.

Hope the procedure next week can help the overall picture.

Think positive when you can - and dammit - go somewhere and pound the wall or cry when you need to. No shame in that! You've gotta take care of you so that you can take care of someone else.

FJ: Do the kids live nearby? Can they help, if so? Just for a day or two? I know that they are busy tooooooooo, but a break would be the best for your health.

You say that like it’s a long way. We live in different places and have different perspectives, but an hour’s drive ain’t diddly-squat. It’s 25 minutes for me to get to Lufkin. An hour? To help family?
