Most of you will have seen this other places, but perhaps not all. My great love died last week. I found him on the floor of the sunroom. Still waiting final confirmation from the coroner, but it appears to be a neck injury from a fall.

I loved him deeply, and I am having problems even imagining life without him.

I'll post more information about the service and my plans going forward as I know them.

Love to you all.

I've decided, based on a variety of reasons, to post my journal entries on Dreamwidth.org instead of Live Journal. Mostly, I hate the LJ advertising model, and idea of using my links to gather money for themselves via affiliate programs. I will probably import all my LJ entries at some, although I'm too busy to do right now.

Still active on Facebook, because the entire family is there.

It's impossible to work 12-15 hours a day with a pinched nerve in my typing arm and not sob with pain, so I finally gave it and scheduled surgery on the arm for August 20. They are going to do a standard carpal tunnel nerve release at my wrist and another release midway between the elbow and shoulder where the nerve is entrapped in a bony growth. I hope it works, because I'm about ready to either claw out the nerve or chop off the arm. No fun.
