Re: Hello, old-timers!

Hello Bacall - So good to hear from you. I was thinking about you the other day and wondering how you were doing. I'm so glad you checked in. I check in from time to time to see how everybody is doing.
I'm getting married in August so things are pretty hectic. We are getting married in a park with a creek running through it and then having a picnic reception at the shelter. I'd have rather gone off and gotten married but the grandkids wanted to participate so that was as simple as I could get it. The granddaughters will be flower girls and the grandsons will be ushers and handing out the programs. They all think the world of my fiance in fact I think my youngest granddaughter is a little "smitten" with him. My fiance is such a treasure. I honestly didn't believe there were still guys like him out there. I never planned on getting married again and he never pressured me but always let me know he would like to if I ever wanted to. I finally realized I do want to be his wife and soon I will be.
The kids are doing well although they just found out their father is in intensive care. He is drinking himself to death. He also has a mass in his stomach that may turn out to be cancer. I hurt for them but was also surprised by my reaction. I don't want anything to happen to their Dad and so wish this experience will make him see the light. I would do anything to help if I could but it's no longer my fight. The boys are old enough now to handle things themselves.
I don't want to be reading anything into your note but it doesn't sound as upbeat as your last one did. I was hoping that the sky had become blue instead of still overcast for you. You seem content though and that says a lot. I still hope for you that the sky will be blue someday and you just never know what a new day can bring. You take care Bacall.
