Nov. 1st, 2011 01:49 pmHello, all. Sorry I haven't been very chatty lately. I really appreciate all your comments that you've left, and I have been watching your journals. I've just been a bit overwhelmed.
My dad is still in ICU, but they're pretty sure they know what happened and have fixed it. He's stable, and hopefully will be transferred to a regular room. Again. Until then, my aunt has been keeping me updated, and she sounds really optimistic. So, I'm keeping fingers crossed and just taking things one day at a time.
My friend came into town on Sunday afternoon. We went out to dinner, then watched a few movies at my place and stayed up late talking and catching up. He was sneeky and got in before he said he would and then got a hotel room. I was at the airport waiting for him when he called and said he had already got settled, so that took away any awkward "where are you going to stay" moments.
Yesterday we met up for breakfast, then saw Puss in Boots, then went for a hayride and to a local corn maze. Then we went to the little local museum so he could some of the history of my hometown. After that we went to my mom's where we had homemade chili with my brother and his fiance, then carved pumpkins and went to a local haunted house down the street.
We had a lot of trick or treaters, and ate a whole lot of junk. It was great!
He had to fly back today, but I think it was a good trip. No sparks flew between us, but it was nice catching up and just being friends. I think he wants more, but I'm sure he'll understand that I don't feel it would work. At any rate, it was a good trip, but I'm tired today!
Nothing else is really happening, and I'll try to comment more on your journals. I'm just kind of overwhelmed and don't have much energy to do anything.
Hope you all had a great Halloween!
