Monday Chat and Vibes Needed

I forgot to send good vibes to your sister, Lisa.  I haven't heard of that disease.  It sounds scary.  I hope she's responding to meds and is better soon (for her sake, and for yours, too!). 

I understand how if feels to be in the situation you described.  My sister told me of her impending divorce long before she told our mother, and it was a very difficult position to be in -- trying not to say the wrong thing, not answering questions 100% truthfully if my Mom asked me something, etc.  There was good reason for the delay in telling her, and it all worked out for the best, but it was stressful for several weeks.

I think Lisa's sister has MRSA. That's the antibiotic resistant infections that can do so much damage and are so contagious. If I'm wrong Lisa, I apologize.

I love my vet's office and the vet we saw today is my all time favorite and Shane adored her too. She was sitting on the floor after looking at his ears and he just laid there with his head in her lap. She agreed that his ears look totally clean but saw the redness around the outer edges and a few scratches inside, so sent us home with Panolog. It was the least expensive vet visit I've ever had.

 We lost power for about 2 hours, and shockingly, it actually came back on. I slept through most of that. When I called to report it, it said it would be on by 10:30, but we really didn't expect repair crews to get out today. We've got it for now, but we're waiting for it to go back out.

 Sending out safe storm vibes and good health vibes to all who need them!

I have family and friends in MA who should be OK other than wind or power loss...one friend on the Cape seems OK for now.  I have a nephew in Nantucket, though, and DH's nephew and his son are very close to Chesapeake Bay in MD, not far from where this monster storm will make landfall.   I know his house is on a good hill, so he is probably safe from the storm surge, but still....

 You are in my thoughts and prayers, Kate.  Stay safe!

 We're still on,  but it keeps flickering. The big news story, in addition to the storm, is whether one weather person called the other a moron.

Decide for yourselves

The woman and the network claim she said, "do you want mine on?" 

Not that it's a big deal, but it's more entertaining than the storm coverage. 

Hmmmmm . . . after one listen, I think she said "moron."  I'd have to listen to it a few more times to be sure.  If she did, yikes!!

Kate, I'm imagining you curled up with Sinbad and Mozey, with oil lamps making a nice glow, reading a book in your hand, drinking a cup of tea.  I'm sure readying yourself for what sounds like a frightening storm is nothing like that peaceful scene in my head, but I hope you're feeling as safe and comfortable as possible!

Glad your sister seems to be doing better, Lisa.  I have heard of MRSA (I know someone who had a nasty battle with it).  I'd never heard it referred to as Mercer disease -- I didn't realize that was the same thing.  I hope her body rids itself of all the bad bugs ASAP!

My Mom called about 2:45 and said she'd lost power and her landline phone.  Her cell phone should last a while, but she'll stay off it to save the charge.  She said the wind is really scary -- and to think it hasn't even hit land yet!

I didn't hear moron when I heard the original broadcast. I heard what they claim she said. When I watched that, I definitely heard moron, but I was listening for it. If she did call him a moron, I wouldn't disagree with her. He's good looking, but he I agree that he is a moron for different reasons. They've been having issues all day with systems though.

Kate, I'm so glad things have calmed a little where you are.  The storm is incredible and frightening. I feel so terrible to think of the damage and potential losses to so many people.  Sending stay safe vibes for everyone affected.
