Quiet time
I know I've been awfully quiet, except for the reading announcement yesterday but I'm finishing up Best Horror #2 and have a lot to still read and then reread. I've chosen five six stories so far and have 41 stories on my short list to consider. And I'm still in the middle of several original anthologies plus have to check out the original stories in some more collections.
My dad's still in the rehab center and will be there at least a couple more weeks while we work out how to arrange 24/7 care for him at home. I'm relieved that my mom has made this decision although she has to find the right person to do this. Luckily, my sister is down in Florida now and will be at least until I get there the 23rd. We all know it's best to get my dad home asap as he's depressed and uncooperative (as he was in rehab after his stroke). My sister says she thinks he's speaking as well as he was before the surgery--hard for us to understand be he knows what he's saying. And that he most definitely knows what he wants and what's going on. So that's good news. He's on antidepressants and we hope they'll kick in soon to see if there's any difference in his attitude.
As for me, I'm not depressed, just a bit stressed. Although I'm in a lot working, I'm getting out to see friends (lunch with Shawna McCarthy today and hanging out with friends later this evening) so don't worry about me ;-).
