Just consider the source....................










Okay, so where did last week go? I think I must have successfully tried to sleep through it all, hoping some of the bad mojo would bypass the Etter household for a bit but instead, it simply left me drained and with little to show for it................ Just felt puny but I imagine it was a defense mechanism from all the insanity. To go through everything surrounding and engulfing the accident and then to almost lose John, it's just been tutu much........

And what better end/beginning to this past week than to have a sleep study performed Sunday night. It was originally scheduled for the Thursday John went into the hospital........ Should have been receptive to the signs even then.......... Not only did I manage to totally mess with any resemblance to a Father's Day recognition for John, as sadly all others are now gone from our lives, I then had to go experience a Frankensteinian torture test which isn't anything I would recommend for anyone faint of heart or lite of lid................ Man, I haven't had so many wires all over my body since my coiled wire storage fell from the highest shelf on top of me, you get the picture............. It will be weeks before I will be able to remove the preferred attachment goo o' torture and did I mention there were at least 10 of theses toxic goo nests attached to my scalp where I USED to have hair?????????? I did take a few pics with the cell phone but imagine I will save them for this year's Halloween bit o' correspondence, talk about scary.........

But what I really want to share is so special, so precious and meaningful beyond words............. After WE decided to take off last Saturday, as I was feeling mega puny and frail, John instead somehow manages to do two loads of laundry here at the Suites and then spend two labored and trying hours at the grocery store!!!!!!! Upon his return, I'm presented with this card, this wondrous and hopeful and compassionate and loving card, and for all we've been through, as you can see, they lived happily ever after.................

  1. Catherine, you have such a gift. You can make a sleep study hilariously funny. You are also so appreciative of the large and small in life. I was touched by the card that you received from John. I enjoyed this entry! sao
