Kathy I'm soo Sorry to hear about your Friends- I hope Bill will be strong enough to handle the next week-this is really sad

I hope Matthew is doing OK too

Matthew is doing fairly well. He and I went over when he got home school. He really didn't want to go but he knew he needed to be there for Bill. Bill gave him a big hug and told everyone that Matthew's his buddy!

DH is still sick but he is getting dressed to go over there now. I'm going to walk over with him. He has two doctor's appointments tomorrow and hopefully they'll be able to get him feeling better.

Bill and Melanie have asked Allen to be a pallbearer at the funeral Wednesday. He has said yes, as long as he's feeling up to it.

How was work today?

Very, very hard! Luckily it was only a half day for me. But so many people know Bill and Mary Helen so everyone would talk to me about them. It was rough.

My boss, however, has shown in the past couple of days that he actually does have a heart and can be compassionate. He's really been great and so has the co-manager.

Hi


Is your DIS Slow tonight?

I tried to respond to this last night, but the DIS was sooooooooooo sloooooooooooow!!! I lost patience and didn't come back until now!

Today Andrew and I went out driving. We left around 2:30. DH has not been feeling well and he had been in bed most of the day. Andrew and I went into town and then came home a different route, stopping at the FD and at a friend's house. We started up the hill toward out house around 4:00. We rounded a curve right before our house and there were cars and trucks all over. I recognized a couple as first responders and I went into a panic thinking something had happened to DH. (This same thing happened about a year ago but our neighbor, Bill, had broken his leg and they were there for him.) Then I saw the ambulance at our neighbor's house! We pulled up to one of the guys directing traffic and I asked what had happened. He said that they were out on a breathing problem. I thought maybe Bill had come home and we didn't know it. I had Andrew come up to our house but the first responders were all parked in front of our house too so he had to go up the road, turn around and then pull the truck up off the road. Hard to describe - but he had to pull it up onto the hill and then got it stuck in the mud! Anyway, I jumped out and ran over to one of my friends who is a first responder and I asked him if Bill was okay. He looked at me and said, "It wasn't Bill, it was Mary Helen!" OMG! I asked him if she was going to be alright and he said she was already gone when they got there! She was only 56!

Oh, that's so sad! I'm so sorry to hear this.

how long will recovery be? both hands or one?

Just the left hand. Doctor said I would be out of work 3-4 weeks. I don't think I'll be out of work that long but that's what I've told the boss too. The big thing is that so much of my job is counting money and without the use of that left thumb that's pretty much impossible.

I think I'll go with the port chops.

Hmmm, that's something new. What are port chops?
