Hey everyone!
After a very busy year so far, I'm back in the Christmas Spirit.
We moved in our brand new flat at the end of July in a new "village" which belongs to the conurbation of the City Lucerne/Zug. Now we are slowly getting used to the new place. While it is very close to two bigger cities, it is still very green and "out in the Country".
Anyway it is great to be in a place that is so much bigger than the old flat and everything is new and shiny.My parents were able to buy the flat (with the help of a early inheritance) and If god is mercyful they never have to move out of it again. There are Elevators in the building and everything is suitable for possible disability.
Don't know how the climate in your Country was so far this year, but we here had one of the hottest summer ever. It didn't quite top the summer of 2003, but it really was close. The average temp was around 96.8° for weeks. Some part of Switzerland had no rain for two month straight.
I don't know what candy corn is, but I really don't like fruit cake. At least if fruit cake is made of tried fruits like raisin.
What is an almanac? In Switzerland there is a very famous group of old men living in a certain part of our Country that are called "Wetterfrösche", they predict the weather according to how the animals behave or how tree and plants look like. My Translation tool says I should translate this word as following: "tree frog as in "means of predicting the weather". Not sure if this is understandable.
Oh my, this sounds frustrating. If you don't mind my asking, with what kind of symptomes was your FIL admitted to the hospital the first time? Does he live alone / far way from relatives? I keep your FIL and your family in my mind.
Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!
I had another lazy afternoon yesterday. I have to stop doing that! I might get used to it!
The news showed a clip of a weather report on the Island of Wales, specifically in a town called...are you ready for this?...Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
That. Is. Amazing. Wiki says it was named that as a publicity stunt back in the 1800's. Oh my!
I hope y'all have a great day!
Afternoon everyone,
THANK YOU so much for the support today , you have no idea how much it meant and helped! Isaac did great. I stayed with him a few minutes until his teacher distracted him and then I slipped out. Felt bad and unnatural not to say good bye but they thought it best to just slip out instead of interrupting him. I managed not to cry even though I did tear up a little. We both did a lot better than I expected!
Went for a walk to the shops to kill some time. Some of the Halloween stuff is out and I also noticed leaves turning and a few falling.
Picking both boys up shortly
Thanks again, you all are the best!
Happy Friday Eve MMC!!
You're welcome!
That is wonderful, Sam! Glad he did well, and is looking forward to tomorrow!
Thanks everyone. I'm sure things will settle down soon, it's just been one thing after another lately. It happens. I'm going to cook dinner soon and then I think I'll be able to start decorating afterward.
I hope everyone's day is going well!

Hi AMD!Quick in, quick out on this Pines Hump Day! Hope everyone is have a jolly day and keeping a merry thought in your head!
You know I am.
I'm glad things are going well!! Praying Palmers meds continue to help! Nice to see you ~ have a great day!
Have fun decorating!Im with you xmas, so sick of the heat, 95 today. Decorating for Fall tomorrow, so maybe that will switch the weather
Merry Thursday!
My nerves are tingling. Isaac's first day at nursery. I can't envision leaving him with a bunch of strangers. My stomach feels queasy just thinking about it!
I hope that he is brave and settles in and doesn't cry when it's time to leave him!
Hope everyone has a great day.
You guys will both do great, you just need adjustment time, like you said. It'll be a routine in no time. Hugs & strength!
Happy Friday Eve!
I just received news before bed last night.
I'm in awe, now they're saying "they spoke too soon" and are not finding anything conclusive on the tests. They are reviewing them once again. It scares me that he could be released soon with no diagnosis. He is bound to be back in the hospital for the 5th time in two months. I'm not being negative, just realistic. They are recommending a part time CNA, so at least someone could potentially be at the house and around to give us a heads up if he has an episode.
Thank you for asking.
