All I am interested in finding are the family photo albums and my mom's recipes. Everything else can go! 
. And the cleaning crew boss is here by herself??? And now says instead of getting done in 3 days it's going to take at least a week. Just more final 
to me from dear old dad

Around Christmas last year, my mom was hospitalized after her aneurysm and it was pretty sudden. Thank god my dad was in the house instead of outside smoking, so he noticed. She was helicoptered about an hour north to another hospital since my nearby one didn't have the equipment. She was unconscious and had her surgery done the next morning. When I went to visit her, Come Monday came on the radio while I was driving with my dad. On the Monday after her surgery, she woke up/came out of her "coma". I'll always remember coming into the ICU the first day and seeing my mom lying there...tubes in her mouth, IV's on both of her arms, and big white patches everywhere. The doctors, on Christmas week, thought she'd pass. Things weren't looking good, but she pulled through
Anytime Come Monday comes on the radio, it makes me tear up. Anyways, just doing more writing (as usual) and decorating the Christmas tree slowly.
We were very concerned about the pipes, but our realtor set up some space heaters and things were fine.
weather phenomena that lately! Bombogenesis (aka Bomb Cyclones), Polar Vortex, and your Atmospheric River to name just a few! 
But how fitting it was that Come Monday played at the perfect time! 
Don't feel bad... it is nice to read some good news!bodypainter wrote: December 8, 2025 5:22 pm Wow! Busy day in the cafe. I think we need a mop and a bucket to get it all better.
I feel a little bad to type about a great day I had. My buddy drove most of the way to Bass Pro Shop. I tried on a pair of 90$ shoes I saw online, found they didn't fit and got a 25$ pair instead. I got some fishing stuff too. My friend spent over 400$, a lot was Christmas gifts.
Fk. I do know how you feel. Here for you. Call anytime.SMLCHNG wrote: December 8, 2025 7:28 pm Tammy, I'm so sorry all that crap is happening. I'm sure you'll be glad when it's over!
Jerry, I'm so glad your Mom pulled through! And yes, I always have a tear when the song comes on.
Linda, I'm happy your procedure went well!
And while I thank ALL of you for the good thoughts.. it ain't good.
It's definitely liver cancer. Don't know if it's spread to other organs yet. Full biopsy results supposed to be tomorrow. Doctor will call us around 2:00. May start treatment in the hospital Wednesday. They have to watch him closely, as it can be painful, and watch his liver #'s. He needs a MRI also done. Don't know if it's spread elsewhere so, can't remove parts of the liver if it's other places.
Shoot...cancer f'ing sucks. Sending good thoughts to you and E. Take care of yourself as well.SMLCHNG wrote: December 8, 2025 7:28 pm It's definitely liver cancer.

I'm repeating what Bill said! And yes, it sucks
