never rains but etc
Jan. 29th, 2014 10:15 pmHappy fourth annual International Eat Some Cake Day! Although the first one wasn't international. Whatever.
Sunday's cold seems to have been a twenty-four-hour affair. I was mostly back to full functionality (as full as I get these days anyway) by Monday.
In other news, I misinterpreted Dad's email about Grandmother, and then he turns out to have been overly optimistic anyway. She's just been moved to hospice with congestive heart failure, and is more or less nonresponsive. So I'll most likely be flying to Memphis and thence to Jonesboro or Hoxie this weekend, and spending the week in Arkansas.
As I recall, the last time I did this I was having a relationship meltdown. That seems much less likely this time. Small favors.
... and there's Dad's phone call. She's gone as of a few minutes ago. So it goes.
(I am pretty much okay. As I told my boss, one side effect of an Army brat upbringing is that extended family is only about two steps removed from 'strangers.')
