Papercut weekend

Mon Jan 22, 06:18 PM

I got a papercut on my palm, right on the head line on Friday. It extended the line. What can that mean? That I'll get smarter? That I will have a better retention? Or nothing?

My uncle Bernie isnt doing to good. He's got terminal lung cancer. He worked in a foundry for like 30 years so his lungs are pretty screwed. I guess he had a pretty bad night last week and the dr's dont think he will be around much longer. But they could only say maybe a week, maybe a month. That in itself is stupid. How can they not know? Such a wide window helps no one. I guess Shirley's ok. As ok as she can be. Mom has been helping to do the funeral arrangements and to do one of the eulogies. I am proud of her. I didnt think she would be up to it but she's being strong for her sister. I am sad and keep jumping everytime my phone rings. I love Bernie. He's awesome and I'm really gonna miss him. Some of his kids and grandkids were up this weekend and are staying for part of the week. I feel guily for not coming up but also ok with being here. I told I loved him and good bye at Christmas. He was really in good spirits at Christmas and I think I would rather remember him that way than to go up and see him now, dying.

So thats how my weekend went. Not so good but better than the folks up north.
