    Just in case...
    Guys,

    I don't know if anyone would be interested or not but I've got our dining room set up for bid on EBay. It's a gorgeous Teak wood and is from back when we could still afford stuff like that. It's a Danish Modern set that we purchased from Contemporary Galleries about twenty years ago. I still love it but we could really use the money right now. I've always taken good care of it, the only thing I've ever polished it with is Scand-oil.

    Our friend Steve is going to let us have his current table and chairs when he gets his new ones the first part of January. If it sells we'll just use our card table set until then. The set he's giving us is a little bigger than ours which will come in handy since it looks like we're becoming where everyone comes for holiday meals now that mom lives with us. It's pretty and looks kind of Arts and Crafts style. At the most my table only seats six people. He and Edie wanted a different style for when they finish re-modeling their house.

    It's still hard to give this one up, though. I fell in love with it on sight all those years ago and that really hasn't changed now. Here it is if you'd like to take a look:

    PS
    That arrangement in the middle of my table? Mom did that for me a few years ago. Pretty, huh? She always made the most beautiful arrangements before her eyes got too bad. I've carefully saved all the ones she did for me. :)

    Old School RP
    Do you miss the old days of role-playing, when people worked for story-lines and didn't expect things handed to them on a silver platter?

    Do you miss the days when games were about posting threads and logs, not LULZ AIM chats and macros? Or about content and plot, not about popular faces, challenging each other's holds, and who has the best icons?

    Do you struggle to find places to advertise when communities like ~rps and ~pbads push your ads off the page within hours?

    Do you wish you could find games like that still and don't know where to look for them?

    Welcome to Old School RP. This is the ad community you've been missing.

    Still here. Barely...
    First, the good news. We're up to sixty-seven wish lists published so far over in [info]wish_list. I just finished updating the Master list so if you'd like to take a look you can find it HERE. It makes me really happy to see the comm so active, spreading a little joy, and helping people connect with one another, is why it's there.

    Keeping the list updated is about the only fannish thing I've had time for lately; I failed pretty miserably with [info]mini_nanowrimo this year. With everything going on in rl I've had no time for me so that translates into no time to write or do any artwork. Once I've got mom settled for the night, and things have quietened down enough for me to have some time at the computer, I'm just too tired to write. One of the side-effects of a Lupus flare-up is exhaustion and it's been hitting me pretty hard with this one.

    Plus, mom's sick. She's got a bad respiratory infection which has progressed to just this side of pneumonia. I took her to see her lung doc last week and we've got her on antibiotics and meds to thin out her secretions so the congestion is easier to cough up. Because of her illness she's had several fairly bad bouts with confusion the last couple of weeks. I can get her out of it over the course of the day but it's still pretty terrifying when it happens.

    Which led right into the other thing; I failed at being strong the other day. I was helping her with her bath and I just started crying. We talked about things and got in some really good hugs but it was still hard. I love my mom so much, she truly has been one of my best friends all of my life. I know she's winding down, that I probably won't have her with me for much longer, and I'm just not ready. She loves this time of year, somehow I'll make sure this is a really good Christmas for her.

    Between my and mom's illness I've had no time at work lately so things are really tight. Whether I have the energy or not I have to get things posted and sold over the next few weeks just to help us survive. I'm hoping I can get a lot done today if things go okay with mom.

    Okay, I'm shutting up now so I can go and get her bathed. Thanks for listening. I promise, next time I post will be lighter. It sure helps just knowing that you guys are here to listen, though. More than I can ever say.

    *hugs*

    [info]your_song
    ( Graphic under cut )

    Your Song is a present day RPG that takes place at the fictional Presley School for the Performing Arts in Yonkers, New York, just outside of New York City.

    Students must audition for a specialty (dance, music, art, technical theatre, drama) to obtain a coveted spot at this prestigious academy.

    All characters in the game are based on famous songs!

    Characters are in their junior and senior years of high school, and must be pursuing some career in the arts.

    So why don't you tell everybody that this is your song by placing a hold today?

    MANY songs are still available, and almost any song will be allowed as long as you can create a character that is in the essence of the original song.

    Poem: Untitled
    Not to be taken literally. This is a symbolic piece.

    Cut me to the bone
    See what's there
    See if you can make me bleed
    Choke me
    See me gasp
    See if you can take my breath away
    Scream at me
    Bruise my skin
    Slam me up against the wall
    Bury me in a shallow unmarked grave
    Wipe me from your memory
    Wash my blood from your hands
    The sun comes up
    Warmth washes over me
    Angels with screaming guitars
    Dirty faced beautiful boys
    Raise me from the ashes
    Give my life new meaning

    Dedicated to the boys of My Chemical Romance, The Used and Leathermouth. Thanks for the music.

    Happy Thanksgiving!
    Just popping in for a second to say Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and tell you how thankful I am for all of you!

    I have to work a few hours in the morning(and, more frightening - - during the Black Friday sale), then we'll be going to J's mom and dad's for dinner tomorrow night. I made pumpkin pie, creamy lemon pie, potato salad, devilled eggs, and I'm doing a green bean casserole when I get home tomorrow.

    Love you all! I read, even if I don't write or comment.
