Feb. 24, 2008

Grandpa's health is deteriorating quickly...he's had a rough beginning of the year, but by the summer he seemed so much better, but come fall he was on oxygen full time and around Christmas he was still himself, a little winded, but still goofing off, and walking around. Now he can't walk, he can barely talk, he doesn't recognize people sometimes, and other times he does...he didn't recognize me when I first went to his house on Sunday, he didn't know who I was and the look in his eyes was that he didn't know me...no warmth, not a grandfather looking at his granddaughter....and I had to leave the room and have a big cry. By the time we left that evening, the recognition was back in his eyes, he knew who I was, and he told me "I love you....so much" with his labored breathing talk....and he held my hand like this for half hour, if I moved my hand, he gripped tighter....and I want to remember that moment of him recognizing me and me seeing the love in his eyes, and the joy I felt that he remembered me before we left his house on Sunday, and him not wanting to let go of my hand.....I'm scared of losing him...

technical problems....

Ok, so I had to take my laptop in to get fixed yesterday. Its been saying I have a hard disk 2 failing for a few weeks now, and yesterday it finally stopped working to where it wouldn't even load up Windows, so I took it in. I just had the hard drive replaced 2-1/2 months ago, so I'm pretty pissed about it. Luckily I did purchase the extended warranty when I bought the darn thing last year. I can't find my software for my camera at this time, I know I had it, but when I was going through my room its been placed "somewhere" and I haven't finished putting together the rest of my room/office yet, so as soon as I get it all organized again, or get my laptop back, whichever comes first, I can upload pics. I distinctly remember about this time last year the same thing happened which stopped me from doing more 365 photo pics, so I'm HOPING this will not hinder my attempt this year....I'm still taking pics each day though, so check in soon and I will hopefully have this back up and running.

grrr.

My bed for the last 4-1/2 years - a daybed - not good for my back, always waking up with pain in my back. This is as I took apart my desk, so its covered with stuff that was on my desk...I bought a new bed and new desk today...

Ian's all better, going back to school, except today he had a snow day, so he decided he wanted to play on Club Penguin, his little interactive world...his screen name has the word Darth in it, like Darth Vader, hahaha....

Just an update: I'm still sick but getting better. :)

My current desk situation. I work from home full time doing medical transcription, its not an exciting or well paying job, but the personal benefits for me and my son, with me being a single mom, has been a great trade-off in my eyes as I've been able to be home for him without depending on others to juggle schedules and this and that...I'm going to get a new desk hopefully this weekend coming up....yeah, that's Ian's toy on my desk, along with various other things that don't belong there...ha.
