Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room.

Good morning. Still no soot or hagatha. I think soot mentioned work would be keeping him busy but I'm starting to worry about hagatha. Anyone heard from her? Draclvr, do the Germans like this hot weather?

same thing.

Yes, oldbroad, I'm a bit concerned about hagatha too. She messaged me 7 days ago saying her mouse wouldn't scroll and that it might actually be the screen. But she didn't say whether it was her laptop or the ancient computer she was borrowing a monitor for to do taxes. I haven't heard anything since. I'm holding on to the issue hopefully being computer-related. I believe soot is gone for work. The Germans just spend most of their day in the pool or in an air conditioned shopping mall!

Good morning everyone. Its been a while since I've stopped in. Hope all is well with hagatha and you all. Coffee and tea are ready to go with Connie's breakfast.

Have a Happy Day everyone!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. It's good to see you Gerry. Lunch and Netflix with a friend today.

Hey, Boomers.

I'm actually semi-living in the hospital with John, who is now palliative. I keep being told he's on his way out, with pneumonia and kidney failure but he keeps confounding all predictions. He's not coming home from this, though. That is clear. But he is stubborn, as always.

Life in a hospital is very strange when you aren't the patient.

I'm okay, though. It's not as though this is a surprise.

OMG, you're back. I've been so worried and hoped it wasn't this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for checking in. Lots of us have been so concerned. Love and peace to you and John while you get through this.

I've been wondering about you too hagatha, as you were sick yourself last time you posted. I know this isn't a surprise to you but I know you were hoping for some more boating time this year. You will both be in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks, guys.

He's outrun stage 4 cancer for almost 8 years, so we feel it wasn't an altogether awful deal. But lately his pain has become uncontrollable and I finally had to concede that I could no longer take care of him. Because he's been using pain medication for so long nothing administered by mouth really did much good any more. And he's exhausted . The main focus now is comfort. Our city has a new hospital where every room is a huge, quiet single with enough room for a foldout bed for me, so I'm reasonably comfortable. I go home every couple of days to see my cats and have a shower. It's okay.

Hagatha I'm so sorry for what you and John are going thru. I hope it can give you some comfort knowing you are both in our thoughts and prayers.

Love and Hugs,

Gerry

Hagatha, really sorry to hear that John has finally run out of steam, but glad to hear that at least the hospital has facilities for you to stay with him. Linda and I are holding both of you in our thoughts.

Hagatha, My thoughts and prayers for you and John. I know how hard this is, as I went through it with my hubby 8 years ago. Love and Hugs.

Thank you so much for checking in, hagatha. I too have been worried about the two of you. Much love to you both and am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

My heart goes out to both you and your husband, hagatha. So sorry you both have to go thru this... again my heart is with you two.

same thing.

hagatha, I'm so very sorry to hear your news. I was hoping it was computer issues keeping you away. Sending hugs and prayers your way!

Hagatha, I'm so sorry to hear your news, my thoughts and prayers are with you both.

After spending over a week living in a hotel and visiting my husband every day in Chilliwack hospital, which seems very old, cramped and way over crowded, John's hospital room seems like a small blessing at least.

Stay strong.

I am thinking about you both, hagatha, and send much love

Thank you.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts, and Bagels in the Break Room. I will be leaving for the Eagles state conference in Tampa shortly. I will be home sometime Sunday. Meetings and partying is on the agenda, going with Robert and friends.

Have fun connie!

Have a good weekend all!

Finishing up final prep and cooking for an open house tomorrow for the Germans. Italian roast beef in the oven outside, my mother's Calico Beans in the oven in the house, a broccoli salad and a pasta salad made and Petra made a Bowl Cake. It's a heavenly refrigerated concoction made with angel food cake, sour cherries, whipped cream, sour cream, sugar and cinnamon.

sports and chores.
