Well, this is not so cute but someone loved this ugly cat enough to knit him a sweater!

Bawahhaahahhaa cracking up!

Thanks Cindy for reminding me about my bat and how i love to strap on my *ss busting boots and wrazzle with the beast. I have been battle weary lately,,,I must admit. Hurts and healing wounds...dreams and hauntings. Mythic stuff this cancer calls up. ' That is why connecting to each other and telling stories is good. I want to help and support others. I want to dispell the fear and stay in the real. Thanks Cindy. Let me blow off the dust on my bat. Pulling on the boots with the spikes. Just let me know if I get too berserker on this evil beast. I hates the cancer so much. Eppie

I had my first dream about my dad in which he shows up. But it isn't him...it's his clone. Dad's Clone is lying on my grandmother's couch having a nap....just like Dad used to do. Mom and I are washing dishes in the kitchen and talking about him. We're conflicted. It is a younger version of him. Very handsome. I argue that she should try it like a boyfriend. It could work I say. She is hesitant. He doesn't have our memories. He doesn't know the things we did together that made us love each other. He wakes up and is laughin in the other room. We join in the fun. Same ol tease. Everything seems the same. He places his hand on Mom's thigh. the look on her face says...this could work. Mom and Dad's clone. I don't know if I like my imagination today. The hope in the dream that Mom could him again. The thought that I could hear his laugh and he could be youthful and strong. God, I miss him. (Please don;t think for one minute I am seriously entertaining the thought of actually cloning my dad. As if! This was just a dream remember)

Lori! Hoping for the best and sending prayers your way. Let us know! Much love, Eppie

This was the cutest ecard I received on my birthday and I hope the link works below so you can see it! http://www.hallmark.com/ECardWeb/ECV.js ... 113474418Y

The first weeks after I hustled around immersing self in work writing thank yous and returning phone calls. Writing the story of the "end" was helpful for me cuz it gave me a way of not having to recite it everytime ....my nearest and dearest know the story from my perspective and that was good. I hated that I wasn;t present for the cleaning and sorting dad's room. Living 1200 miles away is hard...so mom did most of it alone which was tough cuz everytime I called we'd be in tears. I am lucky to have a close family and the connections are tight. Going to grieve counseiling doesn't interest me.....but if O couldn't talk to my family and if they weren't into sharing our feelings and crying with me then I would need help. This has been the hardest week. I very much missed hearing his voice wishing me happy birthday. This alone has totaly undone whatever pretense of "dealing with it" I had. But I rallied....being a good actress helps. At school my teacher friends and student were sweet sweet sweet to me and my neighbors were very loving and kind too. Only my family knows (and you good folks now) how much I was hurting that day. My mom's card was just the most toouching card---and I have many from her---I have ever gotten. So advice? Stay true to the 4 Agreements agreement 1 Be impeccable with your word - Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love. agreement 2 Don’t take anything personally - Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering. agreement 3 Don’t make assumptions - Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life. agreement 4 Always do your best - Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.

Please please let Sherri's dad be ok. He has come so far! Much love, eppie
