So far...

Larry, the dog has not been found, yet, which is very sad and scary.
Another mysterious curiosity is also baffling me… and a wee bit different…
One of my many cousins is unreachable by all means usual on this planet and I am very worried.

What does one do when all logical forms of communications have been exhausted, except the one that you are unable to do?
What’s that you ask?
Physically going to her home to check in person on her well being, you see, it is not possible, since she lives more than one thousand miles away!
I have tried calling her and her Mom, my aunt and left a message on the machine, as well as emailing her and even her good friend too…but so far not a thing.
Perhaps, she is on a wonderful vacation with her immediate family since she just had a birthday?
Well, that is just the way I will have to think about it that is until I hear something definitive.

Oh, another thing I never mentioned I did hear back from our estranged son’s bride, and they had a wonderful winter vacation together. They even met up with her family during that time for a visit and she felt that the time was not right to discuss his parents with him, meaning us, Hubby and me… and so it took me over a week to write back.
I did not want to alienate her for even though I am not happy with her not trying to be a go between I do understand it is a precarious situation and that with not being handled properly could go either way.
What I basically wrote back is that I understood and that I was happy to hear they had such a nice time, yuck! Am I being saccharine sweet? Sure I am, but it’s that fear of those eggshells once again… I’m sorry, but this is so hard to do, and in spite of my true feelings of real impatience I found it within me to make light of it that is wishing our son a happy birthday which is coming up this month but then I said I guess that she can’t since she didn’t want him to know that we were talking to each other, and then I said LOL! UH oh, I suppose that is why I haven’t heard, back, yet, hmm? But I did close with that I was sure when the time was right that she would do what’s right, blah, blah, and blah…GRRRR!
But I was such a good girl and I held my keyboard typing tongue, at least until now...
Listen this is just between us, right?
You will never understand how much this time together means to me, really!

You are my confidants, my sounding boards and even sort of friends with the best of all features, the ability to listen without being too critical with your feedback! And thanks for that!

CRAZY! Yes, at times. Tell me one person with any kind of interesting personality that isn’t, hmm? LOL!
Gotta love the ones who don’t hide any of it, as we used to say in the sixties, Gosh now I am in the sixties, mine, dejevu, WOW, any-who, what I was about to say before I got a bit distracted is…
“Letting it all hang out!”
Yep, that’s what we would say, and any of us that remember that are now in the senior group whom committed that expression knowing full well its ramifications and did it anyway, say it that is and probably did it too!

On that feeling better about my whys in life with that revelation of a wise throwback, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?

PS Great news, I just spoke with my not so missing cousin!
PSS UPDATE: LARRY THE DOG IS ALSO NOW HOME WITH HIS PEOPLE MOM AND GRANDMA!
