Please pray for my father and know that I am feeling rather silly at s ome of the conclusions I drew about the remaining members of my FOO. Please validate my knowledge. I am choosing not to share the private parts of what is going on here. I hope you all can appreciate my decision.
I do pray for your Father, Serenity. I feel that I know him, almost. I am so pleased that it is not cancer. I wish him comfort and the love of family, and time.
Do you know that I was working this weekend, and a 91 year old man flirted with me?!? I know he was 91 because he did it right in front of his wife. And she talked to me about it in the sweetest way, and told me so. Then? He came back and wanted to know whether she had told me how old he was.
:O)
It was very cute.
I thanked him for flirting with me.
And he gave me a rueful look and we all thought about being older and etc, but it was a good thing for us all.
One of the men in my Tai Chi class is 93. He was very sick this Fall, and we believed we were going to lose him. He is back in class now, courtly and brilliant and such a pleasure to know.
I wish for your father a strong recovery, Serenity.
Please never feel foolish for trying with all the integrity in you, to understand how to create of your life something warmer and more beautiful. We all get to make as many mistakes as it takes. What I do know is that it takes a very big person to admit she may regret having believed what she most sincerely did believe.
I am more happy for you than I can tell you Serenity that you are able to be with your family. We feel protective of you, Copa and I. So at first, we were all spines and narrowed eyes and suspicion. But at the exact same time, there will not be two people happier for you (that you are happy and well cared for and cherished) than we are.
I tried to add that picture of the person hugging the other one? But I cannot get it to come here. You know which one I mean.
So, let's just pretend that I put it right here:
MOVING HAPPINESS HUGGING GOES RIGHT HERE
:O)

So...the Enoticons don't work anymore. I am trying to choose something I like as well as I like those little guys hugging and laughing.
Oh no, you guys! The one with the stars is gone, too.
Oh, yay.
Here they are. All my favorite things.
This one, too:
Now I can communicate, again.
:O)
