A Series of Posts

This long-dormant little corner of the web has come back to life.  It's a miracle!

I will begin posting some things I wrote during a very emotional time, and continue to write.  I began writing them when I went to visit my terminally-ill dad in Oregon in January 2019.  At the beginning, they are mostly about him and me together.  My trip was originally supposed to be a 4-day visit.  But two days prior to my flight, his wife and primary caregiver, passed away.  My four day visit became a month of caring for him and helping get his late wife's affairs in order, with the help of her family.  Later, they are focused on what I am dealing with at the moment - personal crises, family crises and general observations.  They are all extemporaneous, off the top of my head.  Some are just rambling, but many are my meager attempt to write in poetic form.  I worry there is not enough context available for others to understand.  If that is the case, just ask and I will try to explain, as best as I remember.

Some of the posts reference "Day 1," etc. relative to when I arrived on Jan 9.  Later posts reference the actual date.  The transition is murky, as there was a period when I lost track of which Day number it was, hence the transition.

I originally wrote these into a document titled "I fucking love my dad."  But the subject focus has broadened since then.

They will all carry the label, ramblingsofadrunkchildofgrace.
