Well, the laundry is in the dryers, I've had some dinner, and all I have to do is pack, print out some computer lists, and pack. My brother called around 10:30 to say that dad was being released around 11:45 am and would be coming back to his house. He said that dad was looking better, but my mother rallied four days before she died.
The day has been good: we edited 3 numbers, I packed up edits to be shipped to me, and I was glad to be away from the personal angst. After the TOD, it was interesting to see that one horoscope for the day told me that family matters were a priority and the forecast for Monday was an emphasis on inheritance.
Thank you all again for the vibes, good wishes and sympathy, dear friends, and to the four DRs who offered mileage, air fare, and financial support, I can only tell you how much it was appreciated and how grateful I am for such generosity. Perhaps someday I will take you up on those offers!
