Life's little twists and turns

Posted on Nov 14, 2007

Sometimes they get ugly. They all pretty much happen in a second's time. What are we made of? How do we deal?

A friend has breast cancer...the good news is she's looking like a survivor. And she’s just bought a condo overlooking a lovely park. The best view for future thriving.

Thanksgiving plans are canceled because someone’s 21-year oldish nephew is in jail and the uncle cares enough to stay home and be a mentor and help sort it out. As well as help the suicidal girlfriend of said nephew into the hospital and onto the plane back to her folks. What’s up with youth these days?

An old friend has a motorcycle accident and has lost memory of who we all are. She sort of remembers some of us. We’re fortunate for her few memories, she’s lucky to be alive at all. Broken ribs, collapsed lung, obvious brain damage. Yes, she was wearing a helmet. But she was a new rider—and crashed about 2 am (no, no alcohol involved. She went out, but didn’t drink--CHP (California Highway Patrol) verification for that) Still, she was on Highway 4, California’s most dangerous road. For whatever reason she crashed, and laid in the ditch until an early morning commuter saw her and called 911.

So all my troubles pale. I have troubles? No, I do not. I have absolutely no complaints.

No guests for Thanksgiving? Sad for no company, happy for good health, and just think! I can get a couple of quail for us rather than that ungainly turkey.

Maybe each of the kitties get a quail as well!

Why not spoil them now, whilst I’m still here. I’m pretty sure if I die Leonardo would care for them but I can pretty much guarantee he’ll never cook them quail!

Yes, you are right! Can't complain if we don't have troubles like others. We stay home on Thanksgiving. We go out in the pm for visits and then we have TDay out with my family the next day at a restaurant.
