Wow...

I can't believe how soon I'll be able to see this display in person!

You know... I wondered if anyone read this, now I know... most likely it's a no. Seeing as I haven't had any emails asking, "What gives?"

Well, no big thing, I'll just write for myself.

I am getting psyched for my upcoming trip. It seemed like it would never get here and now it's just days away! Ludie is spending his first overnight at Grandpa's tomorrow. I'm really worried that Grandpa is going to call on Saturday and say, "Better find him a kennel to board in!"

Scary thought. I wonder what he'd do around 24 canines?

OK, well that's just an even scarier thought.

Bummer news... my brother's divorce is final. It's been so emotionally draining for him and he's very, frighteningly depressed. While I'm doing all I can, I know it's not enough. It's so frustrating to be so helpless, his girls elected to live with him and for that I'm quite thankful. At least he's not sitting home alone with only his battered emotions to keep him company. I worry for him.

I wish I knew better what lies ahead for him. I wish I could tell him it'll be okay etc. etc. But I can't. My divorce was a relief. I had no children with him and our marriage had been dead for many years. I can't even imagine what emotional toll it would pounded on me if we'd had kids together.

Well... I veered off a bit, like usual.

I promise within the next few days I'll be back with more frequency!

Really!
