like the song says...like some forgotten dream

we still go visit mom every day. for me, it's getting more like these lyrics: "we don't talk much more" "she sits and stares" "what's new?" "like some forgotten dream" "nothing, what's with you?" "nothing much to do."



i guess that's why i take awol with me. that mutt has it down. in his own way he goes to every single person and says, "helloooo in there...hello."

i keep trying not to blog because i don't like to whine. at least not publicly. but the truth is it's been a trying few weeks, i guess. now that i have a relatively positive mom anecdote...i still feel the need to get it right, to put it in context, to be honest in the telling.

so maybe i'll just copy and paste a few "mom reports".

no. the family has already read those emails and responded. and this blog is essentially for them, anyway. no. i need to come up with a reason. some sort of universal truth, some epiphany to make it worthy, a literary device (a gouge... hahahhahahahha.)
i'm thinking of a deciduous tree. could that work? both the cause (mom's well-being) and the effect (my reluctance to write about her) are cyclical. deciduous.

yes. i'll work on that.

until we meet again...

Beautiful song...and a lot of pain in the air here. I see this blog is primarily for family and hope I'm not being intrusive. I appreciate seeing your thoughts here. Deciduous or evergreen.

stick a period (.) after the word "hope" in your comment and reread it.

you are not being intrusive.

oh Corny, I shall float through work today on millpond of melancholy after listening to that heartbreaking song. I hope it is still echoing in my mind when I go to see mum tonight, reminding me to give her a great big hug, whatever mood she's in. Thank you for hitting the spot x x

The best song ever about the ravages of aging. Don't know what inspired him to write it but it is amazing. Know that we're all by your side even if we're far away.

Hello in there,
Rick, your name came up (all in a good way, trust me:-) at First Jeff teacher training. Eric Wennersten is organizing some visits to Neighboring Faiths for middle school kids, and remembered that you have some good contacts in other religious communities. Would you mind providing your email and/or phone number so I can forward to Eric? Just let me know, it's all in good faith! And, hope you are well and that Mom is not suffering. Cheers,
Mary

The writer of cornbreadhell.blogspot.com has written a superior article. I got your point and there is nothing to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not disagree with: Pharmacies are always too brightly lit I will be back.

I truly believe that we have reached the point where technology has become one with our world, and I am 99% certain that we have passed the point of no return in our relationship with technology.


I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Societal concerns aside... I just hope that as technology further innovates, the possibility of transferring our brains onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could see in my lifetime.

I am the sort of guy who passions to taste revolutionary stuff. Presently I'm making my private photovoltaic panels. I am doing it all alone without the aid of my staff. I'm using the internet as the only path to acheive this. I ran across a truly amazing website that explains how to make photovoltaic panels and so on. The website explains all the steps required to constructing photovoltaic panels.

I am not really sure about how precise the data given there iz. If some experts over here who have xp with these works can have a peak and give your feedback in the thread it will be awesome and I'd highly appreciate it, because I extremely love [URL=http://solar-panel-construction.com/useful-articles]solar panel construction[/URL].

Tnx for reading this. U people are the best.
