I need to take the day off.  I could not sleep, because it was so muggy and sticky.  Then I came down with a bad case of Republicosis, and I’m not over it yet at Noon.

I exchanged texts with Nameless.  His mom went back in the hospital, and he had to go back there on Sunday.  I think it’s very serious, because he’s researching palliative care.  He asked me to let you all know.  Please keep them in your thoughts, prayers, or however you address the infinite.

  1. 4:04  You are indeed feeling poorly!  Get better!

    Thanks for the info on Nameless, even though it’s somewhat sad.  I’ve been concerned.

    New (copyrighted) cartoon

    This seems to be available, though.

    Cartoon – Ugh indeed!

  2. Prayers UP for Nameless and his family.
    My best thoughts to all, who make these decisions for loved ones.

    Hope that you start feeling better, and don’t forget to drink lots of fluids to keep your electrolytes in balance.
    Take good care, and Thanks, Tom.

    *Joanne, cartoon excellent, and your shop sign is hilarious!!!

  3. Love the cartoon, Joanne! Love your cartoon also, TC! Just about in the same boat as Nameless right now. Family in hospital right now. 
    Gotta run. Hope you get to feeling better, TC!!! 

  4. Puzzle — 3:59 Hmmm, nothing to eat here!

    My prayers and thoughts are with you, Nameless, and with your mum.  I know all too well that it is not easy, not easy at all.

    JD, your cartoon is a good one as is the sign.  I follow Khalil Bendib @ Otherwords.org.  This one is from 2 weeks ago.  Very appropriate commentary on Drumpf’s tax scam.

    Cartoon — I wish I had taught my guys to use the toilet like that!

    Sorry to hear that you have a case of Republicosis.  Too bad there wasn’t a shit load of Republicans below you!  I’m off to a meeting at mother’s care home where I still do some volunteer time.  Tomorrow is physio and teaching so I won’t get in until late.

    • Bendib – Yes, indeed.  Like the old Twilight Zone episode (spoiler alert – highlight to read)

      Where the earthlings think aliens are benevolent because their great book is called “To Serve Man” but it turns out to be a cookbook.

  5. Take good care of yourself, TomCat. All those cold sweats and now Republicosis again; it doesn’t sound like you’re in the best of health, does it.

  6. Thanks all.  Tired hugs! 19

  7. Give my best to Nameless!
    Yeah, Republicosis, what a bunch of crap!

  8. Whoa – looks as though I need to send out lots of healing vibes today. Plus I have a videoconference for Ignite Change this evening.

    LOVE the cartoon! Ain’t that the truth!
