My brain? I can't remember if I ever had one Jay!

No Mare, I'm not going until late spring.

To tell you the truth Jay I don't feel stressed. I hope that I'm not burying it. I guess time will tell.

At the moment the car is the place where I do most of my gieving MOB. As I drive I find myself talking to OG, wondering how he is and telling him I'll be with him again one day.

I have other stresses that are playing with my mind too rosiero. But no doubt I'll overcome.

Oh! I was in San Francisco about 7years ago RNSANE. Great city. We could have met up, but I guess in those days you were working long hours. Sorry to hear of your mum, but how wonderful that she is still such a fighter. Good for her.

The frightening thing is Flagmaker, that is exactly what I did! And then did it wrong!

I also trained them to get on with their own work DogLover, not take time out to look after me!

We have been reading of your bad weather aims. Pity that it hasn't extended to Vancouver for the Winter Olympics. Sods law!

I'm really looking forward to this trip Maggie. It has been a long hard winter this year.

Hope you're not trying to fly into NY this week. I'm in Philly & we've had so much snow this season (over 70.5" - a lot for us) that flights have been canceled for a week straight. Hope you enjoy your trip whenever you get here!

2010-02-12T00:53:09.566Z

Stress is probably what's doing it to you. I'm sorry you're struggling but actually, you seem to be doing remarkably well. My brain's gone missing these days and with very little excuse!

2010-02-11T16:26:21.140Z

So sorry to hear about OG. I have just read many of your posts and your regular struggle to get the right diagnosis and care for him. You were so fortunate to have each other. He had the right person fighting for him in his corner. Take care of yourself, some of the deepest grieving takes place when the crowds have gone.

Stress can play tricks with your mind. Glad you go...

2010-02-11T16:21:01.204Z

Stress can play tricks with your mind. Glad you got that cheaper flight sorted. Enjoy the trip.

2010-02-11T06:25:45.819Z

Gosh, Seattle isn't that far from San Francisco! In the days when I used to have a job and my income was $90,000 more a year, I would have loved to fly up to meet you for lunch..it's less than a 2 hour flight from me!

I'm off the 17th to spend three weeks in GA again with my mom who just celebrated her 86th birthday. She is legally blind from macular degeneration - still lives alone but it is time for her to go into assistive living which she is fighting like crazy. She absolutely won't come out here.

Glad you got your flights sorted anyhow, now you have something to plan and look forward to.

2010-02-08T23:18:28.171Z

Whew. That sounds like something I'd do. I've learned not to book on first try. I check and check and then wait a few hours and then check again before I book. It seems my brain has a disconnect, and I sit and stew about it for a while and then I can see where I need to make changes. See you real soon. Flagmaker

2010-02-08T21:18:02.104Z

Last summer when I found out my mother was dying and I need to get to Los Angeles as quickly as possible for as cheaply as possible, my husband and I both lost our heads and made some ridiculous decisions about the flights there and back. My husband is brilliant, so it taught me that even smart people with their heads on straight can become goofy.

2010-02-08T18:43:11.436Z

I dunno. You've got a whole officeful of bright girls that you trained to do things like that and yet you go and do it yourself!

Shouldn't you take one of them to look after you on your trip?

2010-02-08T18:01:11.466Z

I get into trouble like that all the time and I don't know why.

Glad it's dropped and be prepared for a bit of cool weather over on this continent.

2010-02-08T16:54:58.065Z

Glad you got it right and got the best flight prices. You now have something to really look forward to. :-)

2010-02-08T15:22:35.829Z

It is strange isn't it how some days your head just doesn't work. Given an hour or two to re-think it and all becomes clear. Glad you got your flights sorted anyhow, now you have something to plan and look forward to. A x
