Sigh, Babzy's right with her last comment; it's been a whole week without an update. I was doing pretty well for a while but the last two weeks have seen a rapid decline in my health and I have been getting very little done as a result. New moving rescue plans have come and gone like the passing of the sun out here. And I just can't write all I wish to when I am this down on all levels.
Mind you, the day started out with a pleasant surprise. Brou and Daisy got me up at dawn to let them out (which is not a pleasant event for a non-morning person) but when I opened the door, we startled two mule deer grazing 30 feet away. The dogs could not have been more pleased and spun themselves into a yapping, yiping torrent of blurred fur which soon disappeared in a fruitless pursuit. I briefly thought about all the hunters out here in the canyons this weekend for the mule deer hunt who just spent the night shivering in tents and I gleefully dove back into the still pleasantly warm bed.
The latest plan calls for moving help tomorrow but I am not really prepared for it in any way. I am just feeling gawd-awful physically sick right now. If we do get the latest kinks worked out, if they do arrive and if we do get the place finally packed up, I will be off-line until probably some time in October unless I make it over to Red's to borrow his computer for an update. We'll just have to play that by ear, I guess. It may take a while but I will be back as soon as I can.

Oh, Lin. Once again... good thoughts, hopes, and prayers are on the way. Especially for your health. That's the MOST important "thing" we have in this life. Rest as much as you can and get well as fast you can.
Thanks, Buck. With even my most basic of home remedies but the aspirin packed and gone, I guess I'm relying on a hope and a prayer. Mind you, those aspirin have probably kept me going up to now.
So sorry to hear you have not been feeling well that has much to do with the stress and upset you've been dealing with BUT there will be NO IFS - it WILL happen!!
Once you get moved you can take those packed up aspirin and just collapse knowing that you don't have to worry about it any more. The relief of that stress alone will make your whole body and mind relax and you will be able to feel better.
You know we will be thinking of you ALL DAY tomorrow and waiting to hear that it has been accomplished.
Love Judy & Sue
I hope you feel better. All this and feeling rotten isn't a good combination. Nice thoughts your way.
What seems to be your problem Lin...is it stress, a cold, or something even worse. I pray to God you will be fine and you must, by all means, get out of that place!
Thanks, J&S - I am hoping to do just that - finally get there and just collapse for a week, with the exception of catering to the needs of fur family, of course!
If you hear from me, it's because nothing happened. If you don't, it means that the computers got packed up and put somewhere so don't panic either way, okay? It's not like mountain lions will get us or anything, you know.
Thanks, Louise. I think the emotions and illness went hand in hand unfortunately. If I can get the final move behind me, I think the sicknesses will go away - at least I am counting on that.
Mushy, I've sure been working on leaving but it hasn't gone smoothly or without stress so far. Almost makes me wonder what wants to keep me here, in one state or the other.
Hang in there Lin....we know it can't be easy, but time and God will take care of all things.
Hee-hee, Pat - I pretty much rely on God to sort stuff out but I'm just not sure if I am still needed in the big picture. Guess we'll find out soon enough - His call!
Oh Lin - I was so happy to see a new post from you, but then not so happy to hear that things are not going smoothly ... in fact, it's disturbing to hear they aren't going AT ALL. I hope this new moving plan actually comes to fruition and you are on your way to your new life soon. I am so sorry to hear you are not feeling well; I think you will feel better when all this stress is over. Thinking of you a LOT and praying for your peace.
{HUGS}
Thank you for the update even tho' it sucks that you're so sick. I'm going to put all my mental efforts into casting a spell of good health upon you and lots of love. xxx
I hope you feel better soon, maybe you should just supervise any moving activity from a comfy chair.
Good luck tomorrow, Lin!
I'll be thinking about you. :)
Hey, Towanda - here's to hoping that today is the last big day! I will be so relieved when everything is out of the canyon, including us. Then it can rain all it wants to.
Babzy, I will appreciate anything you can send my way. If you have anything special for stopping the green apple two-step, throw it in please because this running to the loo is getting old.
Alex, I would LOVE to just sit and direct but I don't think that's going to happen. Plus they already took all the comfy chairs with the first load!
Hey, thanks Christina, we'll need all the good thoughts we can get today. And maybe tomorrow, too, although they want to get 'er done in one day. It'll be one LONG tiring day if they do that.
Oh, my gracious. I am so sorry things are not going well and that you are sick. As everyone else, I feel like it is all the stress. Been there, done that. It makes a person so fragile. Here's praying for your recovery and smooth/swift move. Margie (Dang, I just misspelled my own name.) :):)Corrected it though.
Margie, I sure am dragging and I think you're all right about the stress being the big culprit. If today goes off as planned, it will be a tough day but such a relief to get it all over with.
I hate to admit but I even misspell 'Lin' at times - now THAT's shameful!
I know everything sucks right now, but you've got to be strong. We know you have it in you. You're gonna be soooo much better off out of there. Everything really sucks now, but a new life is just around the corner. We're all rootin' for ya.
FHB, everything does kind of suck at the moment - guess your mom knows all about that all too well.
If all goes well, round two of the moving help should be here in less than an hour but the dark clouds are rolling in, too. It'll be interesting to see if we can get everything done today as they hope or have to finish up and head out tomorrow. Rain and muddy roads might figure into it as well.
Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for your move ... and prayers going heavenward.
I guess if we don't see another post, we can hope it means that you are out of there and have no computer access to contact us.
here's hoping that the reading of this missive will find you stronger and in better spirits.
big hug from Barkley and myself.
Hope you're feeling better, Lin. Our thoughts are with you.
It was nice of those mule deer to remind you and all the rest of us that sometimes when you least expect it, there's a bit of poetic justice in the world. Wish I could email you a draught of this first Friday as a divorcee champagne I'm enjoying right now. I'll just have to vow to enjoy it enough for both of us, and in anticipation of when I see you soon. Cheers, my darling. It's all going to get better.
Have been on and off line waiting for the Qwest nerd to show up. He finally made it and we're back up. Very unnerved to hear you are not up to snuff.
I note from the date line this post was a week old. Also haven't gotten any email from you.
Write when you're better. Or worse. But wait 'til you are back on line. Or don't. Please, Lin, take better care of your self. You also need to eat with some regularity, you know.
Thinking of you, and hoping you're scarce around here because you are in transit or plumb moved already. Miss you babe. Godspeed.
I hope the reason for your absense is that you're busy moving and not that Mothman got you.
