sean is due here anytime but i wanted to just post something.
you're all so supportive and wonderful. i thank you very much and feel very grateful.
i haven't talked to my sister yet today. i figure i'll call her after sean and i get back from the pathetic little coffee house here in the pathetic little town i live in. we were supposed to go to lunch but i cancelled. she called me back and gave me a bunch of choices of things to do. i chose coffee here in the pathetic little town. did i mention it is a pathetic little town?
i'm kind of afraid to call my sister. i'm not doing very well and i'm afraid to hear her not doing well.
sean came. she was early... she loved her little gifts. of course, told me that i shouldn't have. we get out to the car and she has a couple little gifts for me. and she's telling me i shouldn't have. one was clothespin chopsticks. we had talked about them a long time ago and i said i was lousy using chopsticks and she said they had them in San Fransisco. and the next time she went, she'd get me some. but she found some here.
man, she just came back with two bags full of groceries. a chicken, potatoes, stuffing, broccoli, cheesecake, butter, garlic. she just showed up at the door with them. i couldn't even say thank you. it was one of those times when you say thank you with your eyes and the other person says you're welcome with their eyes. after i closed the door, i started to cry. it was just so sweet of her.
i just talked with my sister. she sounded better today. she was going to bumblefuck's mother's to eat, then going right home to get some rest. and in the morning she's going with her son to her other son's for breakfast. she said she'd stop by on their way to pick up the gifts that i have for them. so i have to get them wrapped tonight. i wish i had gotten my christmas lights up. it's not too late. i guess. sean offered to help me today but it just seemed like too much of a chore. i kind of wish that i could find my Nat King Cole christmas cd. yes, you read right, nat king cole. i don't even have a radio set up to listen to mushy christmas music while i wrap gifts.
i wish all of you some can find some joy in the coming days. and i'll be around for support to anyone who needs it.
