Okay!

Okay. Quick update.

I'm okay, mom and her sibs seem to be okay, grandad seems to be okay. I think mostly, we're okay.

I'm choosing to look on grandma's passing as the first good thing of 2008. Because, quite frankly, this is a good thing. Grandma doesn't have to suffer any more, and her family doesn't have to watch her suffer. She's with the family that's passed already, and we're okay with that.

So, that's where that is right now.

As for where I'll be. I'll be flying to Green Bay tomorrow, and be in Escanaba hopefully by tomorrow night.

Bug, Dee, I'd love to see you guys if I get the opportunity. I don't know what the travel/transportation situation will be, though, and money is tight, so it may not be able to happen but I really, really hope it does!

I might make a sojurn up to Marquette to see if I can get some letters of recommendation, but I'm not sure how that's going to work. For one thing, I don't want to go back to school yet, but if I wait too long the profs won't remember me... Maybe I should just volunteer at the library and the archives here and get letters of recommendation from locals...easier communication, anyway.

But we'll see. I'm looking forward to visiting Michigan.

I'm glad that you're so ok with viewing your grandmother's passing as a good thing. I hope I can accept my grandmother's passing, when the time comes, as well as you have.

Hope you have a pleasant trip back da U.P.! I wish I was heading there myself. Didn't think I'd be homesick for Marquette so soon, but the place kinda grows on you.

I kinda saw this coming when I heard your grandad mention that she hadn't been eating well...but I'm glad it's over because as you said she doesn't have to suffer anymore, and your family doesn't have to sit by unable to help.

Give me a call, since I can come to see you if you have the time but can't get here. If nothing else call me and we can just chat briefly for hahas.
