Thanks guys. This stuff is a hoot. I need it.

Oh, Ma is still ok. No news. Just day by day here.

Tomorrow, my power will be out for a few hours, so a dead lightning struck tree can be cut down in the neighbor's yard (it's right next to OUR power line...), so I can't even get back to normal stuff for another day. I may take some work to a motel and rest and paint some. Gotta do something.

Anyway, that and anyone trying to call our house phone, it's out too. Not sure why. It will ring and ring for incoming calls, but we get no dailtone. Dead as a doornail. No rings for us. You'll hear it ringing.
Should be back up soon. If you have my cell, that's the only way for a day or so.

So, still on it. Like Superman says, "I'm always around."

HOLY MOLY!
Thanks Josh! WOW!!!!!

(I think I have a new favorite girl)


Still keeping the faith here. Lots happening. Not much time to get online. Even had a bad tornadic storm that tore up trees in the neighborhood, and knocked out our power for hours last night, so it's been a wild and surreal time.
Lots going on with Ma, so if I am not in much, or don't respond to PMs or Emails for a day or so, don't fret. I am here, just overoccupied for the next couple of days. I will respond as soon as I can.

Appreciate the cheer guys. Means a ton. Pray, continue with the visuals, as that does indeed keep my smiling.

I'll be back in soon.

A rare treat for my friend Les, not only am I giving you more eye candy, but this is from the personal collection, shot by yours truly. Yes, MaulFan shoots things besides collectibles with his camera :D

Great collage of Les's outstanding work there MaulFan! I love it! :D

Les, is your home phone back up and running now? I sure would like to talk to you soon on the phone...when you get the chance. I only have your home phone, and not that new cellphone you talked about. Thanks.
 
maul fan is to picture taking as hurricane is to making vaders. great work MF to show off the masters of this board. :rock:rock
 
It's an amazing piece of art, a tribute to a fantastic person and one of the best artists in the field. :duff

Great work Sean, you really did Les proud.
 
Thanks Sean.
Words fail. Intense gratitude and a feeling of brotherly support are all I can say I feel.
:bow

Tough days here. Ma is not taking to the home well. It's day by day. Toughest love I have ever had to serve. This kind of duty sucks in the most heinous of emotional ways, as you basically have to incarcerate your beloved loved one, and see them suffer for it. To experience one's death is harsh enough, but is at least final and makes one accept it as so. This makes one feel like a traitor, as though the rewards of a long life, spent helping you develop from the cradle, to the person you are now, is only rewarded by being cast off and set aside. The feelings I feel are intense and sad.
Part of me knows it's in her best interests. I accept that. But another part feels like the knife that stabbed a friend in the back. A most deep a beloved one, my Mother.
Hard times.

Thanks for making me feel like I am not alone in this time of fear and alone-ness. The friendship and understanding coming from you all is one of the ONLY true means I have to get through this, as local friends are, nowadays, somewhat lacking, and involved with their own dramas. Long stories those too. To be a self-imployed glorified toy maker in a small town of small ideas...

But, I persevere. I will overcome this time. I will soon again continue unabated with my works, and will do my best to restart and complete these many projects, no matter how minor they may seem when compared to Life's more significant trials, so that the current somber tone of my thread will pick up and move forward with a fun and enjoyable abandon again. You all have my word in this. I have to restart soon so that I can heal.

Your recent support has bolstered my spirit. Thanks all.

What a wonderful place we have here to meet and share, that friends that have never even actually met, can do and say such things for each other.
You all have my most sincere and heartfelt gratitude. I can only hope that when my work is resumed, and is FINALLY in your anxious hands at long last, that you can all feel my love in each and every one of them.
This is the smallest, simplest and most honest way, I can repay you all.

Til then... :duff


And to whom it may concern, thanks dearly for the inhanced post count. Much obliged.

Our prayers are with you Les.

my grandmother has been getting a lot worse lately so bad that now they have told us she will not be able to go back to the home where she was at and that she needs to be in what they call "shelter care" which is near the end of the road for alzheimer's. for parts of the day she'll be pretty good and only seem a little forgetful but still her self but for other periods she is totally out there, paranoid, confused, trying to escape and thinking the strangest things (she just recently thought people were treating her bad and thinking because they thought she was an indian and they were going to get her because she had recently seen little house on the prairie).
I feel for you because I can see what's going on with my mom and dad who are the ones taking care of her (my uncles are to involved in their own lives far away and because of it just don't understand so that's another burden).
The only side note of advice I will give is that you have to make sure you don’t over tax yourself with it. It is not too hard to go too far thinking you need to do it all and it will wear you down fast. My parents are at least blessed with having their children close by to try and help share the load but still my mom has the tendency to try and take it all upon herself.
