  Hiatus Update IV: A New Hope

  Hi kids!

  As of my last post you know my hiatus was indefinitely postponed by the sudden and unexpected passing of my grandmother. Although a painful experience, losing one of the most important people in my life brought me a new relationship with my uncle - her son and my mother’s brother, his wife and my two new beautiful little cousins. 

  We’ve finally got most of the hoarded possessions my grandmother hung on to sorted and personally delivered to needy families, which has significantly lightened the burden of losing that one life. I’m making a difference and it feels great.

  That said, I am tired. Life changing experiences are fairly exhausting as it turns out and as I sputter this out from the laptop I thought had been stolen from me 3 years ago but had actually been accidentally boxed up into my grandmother’s things (!) I can’t even really see straight. Every day since I’ve arrived has been getting things done - sorting, donation, moving, handling documents.. things are crazy. I’ll be flying home to Indiana this Sunday. I’m figuring I’ll  have internet there by mid to late June.

  I don’t think this post makes much sense! TL;DR: things have gone much better than expected and I’m okay.

  I miss all of you being in my life! Stay gold and stay tuned.

  Hiatus update 3: unexpected tragedy edition

  Hey guys

  I’m okay, but things aren’t great and now my schedule for the immediate future is nonexistent. By the time this message hits the queue I’ll be at the airport heading to California for at least a week; possibly more and I won’t update again until I’m back.

  The vacation/preparation to bring my grandmother back to Indiana at the end of this month is out the window; she suddenly had a heart attack and passed the other night and right now I’m just trying to hold my family together. As most of you know I lost my father only seven months ago and my mother is just completely devastated. It’ll be some time before I’m back regularly.

  If there’s an emergency or something, for those of you that have my number go ahead and call me, but right now my mom’s phone isn’t working reliably and we’re using mine for the many family/legal/health calls that have to be made, so right now probably isn’t the best time to get a hold of me. I’ll update when I can and will attempt to text if possible, but I can’t promise anything right now.

  Happy belated birthday to really, really ancient 19 year old frances (DID I MENTION SHE IS OLD?)

  Also Taylor tomorrow morning I have a stopover at the airport next to your old place in Texas so that’s kind of cool I guess

  See you guys when I can
