Shabbat Shalom, Queenie.

Been over a week with nothing coming from the Mr and Mrs Adventures household.

Just let us know what's new, OK?

Nothin' for three weeks, Queenie. Hope all is well. Isn't the weekend your son graduates from Great Lakes?

Good Shabbas, Queenie.

Queenie,

I know you're in my neck of the woods this weekend. We talked about my wife and I getting together with you while you are here. If you read this before Saturday morning, let me know if that's still on the docket. Otherwise our UA time this weekend is not going to include plans to meet up with you and plans are always easier to make than to change...

Earth to Queenie...

Sorry I haven't been around much. I have been taking care of a friend who is dying. She needs pretty much round the clock care and doesn't have a computer at home that I can use. She is in late stages of liver cancer and its just hard watching this again like with my mom.

But G-d is good as I have had the time and the experience to do this mitzvah.

Shabbat Shalom, Mark and everyone else..

Life has had its struggles and ups, I have kept in contact with various people, but mostly I have just been quiet because I need to hear G-d direct me and for some reason veggin on facebook was it. I have become addicted to bejeweled... It's pretty funny.

Yes, this was the week that I was supposed to come to Chicago and here I am. I didn't have any plans down and so was waiting to hear from my son what was happening. I thought he would want time with his girlfriend, but it seems I'm included in that plan. Darn... I really would have like to met up with your wife and you. That way I could have thanked you in person for all the time, energy and support you have given me.

He is still here for A school so I might be able to make it back out here once before he leaves. I'll let you know.

Obviously you are off to have UA time with your wife so if you read this... I hope it was awesome as you deserve the best in life. We are heading down to Chicago and the zoo... My friend recommended it and MS's GF wants to visit the zoo. Evidently she likes zoos.

I'll write more later when I get home. I will say thank you G-d for JT. She keeps me sober in ways I can't even explain. I love ya gal and have lets everything just be.

Happy Saturday all...

Be happy, live life but MOST OF ALL - TRUST YOUR G-D....

Hey dahling,
just want to say your in my pray while your caring for your friend. Remember to take care of you as well. Caregiving for the terminal is draining in ways you dont think of until your doing it.

love you lots hug

Shabbat Shalom and Happy Weekend,

Sorry I haven't kept in touch better lately, but there has been so much going on and I'm just exhausted.

Where to start.... How about the mitzvahs....

My DD is under one month from her due date. It's the weirdest thing watching your child be pregnant. She moved two weeks ago into a larger apt and seems more content because the baby will have a room instead of a inlet. She painted the room yesterday and is doing a lot of the nesting stuff.

My OS's graduation went awesome, I'm so grateful that I went back there for it. I wished I had the nerve to meet you Mark, but I'm not going to beat myself up over that. Life is simply too short. By far it's my loss.

My YS, well he is alive. smile And that's a very good thing.

I am the proud mommy of a new puppy. I really believe that there should be puppy maternity leave. I'm exhausted, but finally think I have a routine in place the last two days. He is darling. Half rottweiler and half blue heeler. He's just to the point where he cries when he wants out, but I have NO TIME to get up and get him there. So, I'm on my toes. For sure I am sleep deprived, but I wanted to do one more dog and by the time it's life is probably over we will be retired and I won't want a dog them.

Now sadly....

My friend died last Sunday morning at 8:55. We were planning on visiting her after H's game, but we were too late. It went so much faster than anyone expected. She will be cremated and a memorial service is being planned, but the kids have gone back to college to finish the year and life goes on. My OS had a HORRIBLE time with this as he really thought of her as a second mom and he didn't get the chance to say goodbye.

I encouraged him to call her and talk to her on the phone when we knew it was coming to an end, but he wasn't ready and didn't know what to say. He keeps in touch with his friend and I know that's helping me.

And finally... update....

Pep, I will ALWAYS be grateful to you for the advice that you gave me when my friend found out about the triplets and the problems that she went through. She took many, many pictures, named the baby Angel and the one who is surviving is named Isaiah. My friend was put on bed rest, but with 3 kids at home that didn't work so she went into a specialized hospital and has been there for a few weeks. Woman from the AA women's group that I go to took a meeting up to her each week and my sponsor and I went on Wednesday again this week because she needed company.

I mean, imagine, you are so excited to give birth to babies, and one will live and one will die. I'm not trying to dramatize it, but this woman is my hero. She is only sober three years and has walked through this with amazing grace, dignity, strength and faith in G-d, but sadly she will need to begin the process of grief for the losing of the one baby. She is in labor, it's still too early for the babies so they are giving her steriods to help develop Isaiah's lungs. The c-section is scheduled for tomorrow. Please say a prayer for her and her family.

Life is moving way so fast. Recovery is moving along. Not much to report except I'm still very grateful for this opportunity and truly KNOW that even if my marriage doesn't make it. THIS TIME... I didn't hold back and there are NO regrets.
