For the friends who have wondered about my silence that I have not been able to message personally.
Some of you know that a fave aunt passed away earlier in the month. I was extremely busy preparing another aunt's house for the gathering after the funeral. It is the family joke that if out of town guest are coming, the women of my family tend to paint the house! It's almost the truth. It isn't that we are trying to impress anyone, we actually do it so WE will know it is clean and ready.
Anyway...the funeral was Aug. 25th. We had a wonderful celebration of life for my Aunt Claudia! It was truly a party (it was also Claudia's birthday)! Aunt Claudia would have been proud.
My Aunt Annie was cleaning a bit during the party and tripped over a rug. We went to the ER to discover she had broken her shoulder. She is 77 years old and also the one that took care of Aunt Claudia the last few months of her life. I have been with Annie since the fall. I have been the 24 hour care giver since the fall and have not been online very much. We have had a few terrible nights and I am exhausted but know that I must try to be alert for the care of my cherished aunt. Therefore, I rest when possible. I could be MIA for a few weeks. But I'll check messages and write back when possible. Please know, I am not intentionally ignoring anyone and will get back to you ASAP.
I adore my Fu friends and family! A special thank you and kisses go out to the ones that stop by every day to love on me! It is actually needed right now...and very much appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to read and PEACE be with you.
