Taking A Blog Break

Well, what a funny, in an ironic sense, this month has been.  

We are on strike.  The government refuses to budge.

Husband had infected root canal removed and the darn root was growing into his sinus and left a hole there.  Thankfully it is healing now.

Then, today, my Grandma Doll passed away.  I know she is better off and she passed away peacefully but I'm so sad I didn't get to say goodbye to her.  I am off to Prince George to be with my family and for the funeral.  Hopefully, next month will be a better month.

Hugs to you all....next post will be a happier one I hope.

{{{{hugs}}}} My condolences on your grandma. And poor DH...I almost had a hole in my sinuses after getting my wisdom teeth out...fortunately they avoided that. But I know that kind of surgery is no fun and leaves you really wiped out. Praying next month is better for you and that the trip will be healing for the whole family.

Oh, dear Anne, I'm so very sorry to read about your grandmother. Is this the grandma that was married to your grandpa who had dementia? I feel bad that you didn't get to say goodbye, too, but I know she knew how much you cherished her. Sending you a warm hug and please know both your husband and your family are in my prayers. I do hope he recovers soon--that sounds incredibly painful...

You take care now and take a long break to get your emotions in order...This really has been a terribly hard month for you. Hugs to you, my friend...
