Home

I know it's Saturday which is supposed to be picture day, so I will be adding some photographs from my Northern sabbatical, but I also just wanted to check in with an update.

GK has remained stable in his out of itness.

He sleeps alot and is usually confused and out of sorts when he wakes up.

He is still having the terrible pain that we are doing whatever we can to suppress.

Hospice comes today and with that I hope they have some new ideas for some medication he can tolerate.

The family did a great job without me and I came home to a clean house and settled mind. I think I have a rejuvenated spirit and strength to get through the woods so to speak. 

I just REALLY needed a break and time away to be with the people that remind me who I am.

Sometimes I lose sight of that and begin to feel that my lot in life is to clean up poodle puddles and live in an altered state of mind minus the medication.

Other than the girls at the doctors offices, I don't know a single soul here so I don't have anything else to focus on besides the right here and right now.

It was so good to hear stories of whats going on in other peoples lives, and to be reminded that there is still more to life than Judge Judy, barking dogs and the cancer that is taking over the lives of the people I love.

Here's the deal though.

What we have been doing for the last two plus years has become my life, and for as much as I miss what used to be, I also missed what is.

It felt good to come home to my family and be with my Grampy and believe it or not, even to hear the piercing bark of the dreaded poodles.

Home is where your heart is, and my heart is here with the people I love.

Now, here's some picture!
