Do tell me about this eyespy... It might help with my novel!

I know it seems that the Spook hasn't been around much
lately. Much as I enjoy being here, it seems that thing called
life is getting in the way again.

It seems my parents have gotten old on me. Both Mom and Dad
are 76 and in failing health. Tomorrow is starting to look a long
way away.

103 myself, I'm older than my parents. These past weeks, I'm really
feeling my age. So, that's pretty much what I have going on these
past few weeks.

So if I disappear for days at a time, I guess you know why. Just busy
with life.


Spook....who's missing his North Carolina friend tonight.

I'm sorry your parents are not doing well. I know how hard it is to watch as their health declines. Focus on today and let tomorrow take it's time arriving.

I sent a little bird to find your friend in NC. Watch your inbox.

We can't let them know we are watching them! What kind of parent are you? The kids need to think you are ALWAYS watching... Don't you have eyes on the back or your head? I do... I'm doubly talented - parent and teacher...

You know how you sometimes just have one of those nights... I get home late with the kids, throw dinner on the stove and hubby calls, he was supposed to work tonight, but the other person was confused and it's next Tuesday. He asks if it's ok if they all (three people) stop by for dinner - uh, no - I have one bag of frozen ravioli and some homemade applesauce, don't think it is going to feed 7 people... then he says they are stopping by the house because one of the guys wants to see what our house looks like...

I just got a full-time job and haven't really been keeping up with housework - so the kids and I go on a whirlwind tour of the house and do a pretty good job of at least cleaning the kitchen and putting the toys away. As I am grabbing the pile of laundry at the bottom of the stairs, I am overcome by the smell of cat urine - great, so now I have to soak that in a bucket of oxy-clean. As I come back upstairs, I notice that the dog has decided to dig a hole in the ficus tree pot... in the living room! Good thing the vacuum cleaner is still in the living room... They arrive at the house, say hello and go out to my hubby's studio...

Well, at least the house is cleaner...

Off to put the kids to bed...

Hey friends, Em is in the hospital. Redhen has started a thread - I have no information other than that. Gather together, pray or do whatever you do to send caring healing thoughts for her.

Sourland is sad, our Queen is ill.
