In case anyone was wondering. I made it home. Traffic in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Washington, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey and New York sucked and the rain in Connecticut and Mass. did not help. But someone had a much worse trip than I did. The life flight helicopter took off from the south bound side of the highway as I was puttering by on the north bound side at ten miles an hour.
1489 miles in 25 hours of driving.
Definitely not a record.Current Mood:  tired Current Music: Silence |
I made into Memphis and out again without too much of a problem. I'm certain I offended everyone in the process because I didn't really want to listen to all of the nonsense. I have enough of my own.
My dearest mother is doing well enough that I am a little irritated at my sister for her drama over the issue. Anyway the information I received and the reality I experienced did not match up well.
The drive down to Memphis was neither interesting nor tedious. I think the act of getting out of town and putting distance on everything really helped.
I am now sitting in ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) poormattie's place helping him move furniture.
I believe sunshine is the absolute best anti-depressant on the market.
This time next week I will probably be hitting the road to go back to NH.
Enjoy the holidays
p.s. typing on a laptop is less than optimal |
I hope that everyone I didn't get to wish a happy holiday has a good holiday and a fun new year.
Take care and I'll see you when we meet again.Current Mood:  nostalgic Current Music: Sinking of the Edmond Fitzgerald |
It looks like I will be tripping to Memphis earlier than expected. I will probably leave on Friday sometime.

It looks like I will be driving around the east coast at the end of the month.
I’m going to take from the 24th to the 5th off work. I may regret this later but I have to get away from the inane-ness of my current life and most everyone knows how much I like to drive so…
I’ll go to Memphis for a couple of days first then head for Florida around the 27th or 28th and hang out there until I figure I have to leave to make it back to work (1489 miles) on the 5th. It will be about 4000 miles but what-the-hey, it’s only time and money…
I thought about taking the laptop and have it read books out loud to me.
I wonder if the water is warm enough to float in the ocean for a few hours…

|---|
My manager has promoted a relatively new person to a supervisory roll over me. The problem is that I have no respect for her at all.
I now know that my job will not improve any at all over the next year.
I am going to write down a list of items that must be in place for me to quit. As soon as that list is handled I am going to quit whether I have a job or not.

Life is not good at the moment so I find myself wanting to pull up stakes and walk away. The problem is that I cannot see through the haze of time into the future. Making matters worse I know not which way I would like to go. I look around and I see people with many more responsibilities than I do and it seems to me that they are far more trapped than I have ever been at any point in my life but they are happy. The only times that I feel any spark of happiness is when I am attempting to accomplish something (usually something damn near impossible if not out right impossible). The whole "I must achieve this goal" mentality takes over but even that is wearing very thin.

For those that I haven't kept informed here is an update:
My mother at the ripe age of 73 fell last Friday. :(
My brother and sister ended up taking her to the hospital as a precaution.
They found evidence of a stroke, congestive heart failure, a mass the size of a hand in her chest and another on her kidney and the pneumonia had spread to both lungs.
The doctors are prevented from doing MRI's because of an implant in her ear (metal and large magnets don't mix)
The doctors cannot do a biopsy on the mass because she would not wake up from the anesthesia(sp?)
My relationship with my mother has always been strained so I have lots of mixed emotions but sadness abounds :(

I spent a month getting my book of the ground. It has potential but needs a tremendous amount of work. Dan Comly wanted to read it and I let him. Dan then asked if he could edit the full book and of course I was very please that he wanted to. I told him I would start rewritting the book again to try to make it easier for him to edit and get the story more organized. I promised I would have something for him by end of the Thanksgiving holiday to start on. Now I can't get into the writting groove. Ugggg.
