    Again, words fail me, Bill. Please just know that you and your family are in my thoughts as you go through this. If you need a hug, I got one. Anytime y'all need one.

    I have finished the book. It had a surprise ending. That's one thing I like about Nora Roberts' book. You never know how they are going to end until it ends.

    That might sound unimportant at a time like this but I have found that when you are sitting in the intensive care unit waiting for bad news, it helps to have unimportant things to chat about.

    It couldn't have happened at a worse time, could it, Bill? With your son, DIL, and granddaughter out of the country. I don't suppose there is any way they can get back quickly, is there? Will and your wife be able to go to the funeral service?

    Neither of us are able to go. Our son is going and will represent us. Take care of yourself. See you around.

    No, not Yet. The contractor is in Florida on vacation. I did get-something over seven thousand dollars
    for other damage to the house but roof damage hasn’t been paid yet.

    I have been roaming the internet, restless, visiting an old forum of my past, Silver peers.com where I
    still know a few souls and I became a member in 2009 after an English forum shut down and still a member.
    It’s an Australian forum with few members. And I dropped back into Senior Forums again for a few reads.

    I’d like to get in my car and go somewhere but I don’t know where to go. Where have I been I’d like to go
    back to? Where have I not been I’d like to visit? I don’t know. Maybe pack a small hand bag and my camera
    go looking for something to shoot. Like I said, I’m restless. I need things I don’t have. I ‘m going looking.
