No more room in hell

Yah it's a bit dark - but it's Zombie Walk night and Halloween is on the horizon.

I was up early and out of the house -- because of a Conference Call Meeting. Yay.   Don't get me wrong, the people I work with the vast majority of the time, I enjoy.  I care about them and I appreciate them and some of them I call my friends. It's just that 4 hours on a phone call -- well, it's gives me a headache.  A figurative and literal headache. And a butt ache. And then makes me want to not work. But I did.

Dad Report: There's some conflict going on now in the family.  This is not unusual.  Even before Dad got as sick as he is there were issues.  But certainly the sicker he has gotten - the more conflicts - and the more complicated the conflicts get.  There's a lot of emotions - guilt, resentment, anger, frustration - and there's a lot of craziness. Some time ago - I resolved to do my best to focus on Dad's happiness and our relationship and try and let the rest fall down around my ears in a rain of bleh.  Some times it's harder than others.  This is one of those times.  So I'm thinking about joining the conflict to express my feelings - but I'm just thinking now; as I know that immediate action is often the least rational and the least effective.

Dad was happy to hear from me - I was late due to the above meeting - and while he appreciated the jokes about me coming up there and making him eat his lunch if he stopped eating cuz I called - I have a feeling he just used it as an excuse to not eat.  We had a nice chat - mainly about his health issues and my health non-issues.  He doesn't either have the memory of the current conflict in the family - or didn't care to comment. His story about the football game changed a bit from the other day - now it was hockey! And he remembered that he had both a visit from Cayla and a call from Mickey - a long call, which was rare and very enjoyable.

Emailed back and forth with Zboy about our agreement - he's on board and excited. So that's cool.

This is what we did tonight - I know all the photos are blurry. I suck.
