Ma fell again. This morning. I have seen the catscans myself, and no breaks. A slight fracture on one outer part of her left tibia, but no more. Non-operable. But she hurts.
And she's acting up again, so she will stay in the hospital for a few days.

Good news: I did get the needed paperwork done, SO I WILL BE HER GUARDIAN WITHIN TWO WEEKS!!! Court date to come.

So, more as I know it. Thanks for letting me rant.
 
Glad you at least got the care end squared away, especially now with another incident, it's necessary.
 
lol congrates on lando.

again you and your parents still have our prayers. my only advice is to fight for the guardianship. unfortunantly i have seen that when it comes to legal matters it seems which ever side is the loudest and complains the most wins (and most of the time it's the wrong side). my advice is to fight like hell for the guardianship and win one for the good guys!
 
Wow Nicky! Interesting site! useful in many ways. Thanks.

I forgot to mention, I did ship a few things out on the way to the courthouse today, so look for some info soon guys. Got to go take clothes up to her and come back and nap for a bit. was up til 4am painting and Facebooking. (That place rocks! But I need to cut back now. Too much to do. Having a class reunion of sorts in there! Nice to have that again...)
Anyway, back to it guys. :rock
 
Thanks all. Yesterday wore me out. I got in from all the running around at 5pm and just crashed. Woke back up around 8:30 and was all messed up timewise. Thought it was 9pm at 11:30! LOL! Anyway, still sore from the tension, but sitting at my desk again, and with more money in hand for shipping this week. We sold a car here, today no less! and can afford to ship more out this week. Means a lot that I can do that. One less stress inducer now.
Ma is still in the third floor of the hospital, for about five days or so, so other than some tightly scheduled visiting times, I am left more alone to work than I have been in weeks. Not as worried about her there. SO, I am stoked for more uninterrupted worktime. I need it anyway. NOW I can relax AND work, which is my best results kind of worktime.

Thanks all. Means a lot, all the calls and emails. Keep your chins up too, as I am pumping out the works here now! March 31st -April 15th, Here I come!!! :rock
 
I just wanted to chime in and say thank you Les. I received my spikey haired Hicks yesterday, and all I can say is WOW! another Les Walker Masterpiece, well worth the wait.

I don't put much stock in religon, but I wanted to send my sincere thoughts and well wishes to you and your family. Heres hoping 2009 will bring brighter and better things for you.:duff
 
You heard it, from no less than MY LORD. It's don't get better than that. Glad you got your's man. I really am.

Note: Due to the immense amount of both work, and Ma related issues this coming week, I am gonna stay away from the computer except to email those I am mailing out to this week. So, don't fret if you don't see posts from me for a while. I will get back to those wanting heads later and such, but right now, all my energies are focused on both work at hand, and family issues, which I have pretty well laid out. No secrets here...

So, keep on rockin' guys, and thanks those that enjoy my works. Thanks to Jedi Mike for making me smile this week with your total love for the Hicks. You really filled my heart with your kind words. THanks to all you others too of course! I just know Mike, the man has a lot of heart, and his enthused words fueled me in many ways. Appreciated my friend.

Be back later in the week. Must work only and see to Ma.
Hope the Oscars are fun. I will most likely have my back to them tonight, as I paint, but I will stop for the Best Supporting Actor award time...I have great expectations there...otherwise! CHEERS all!
To staying the course!
:duff

Til next open update, look for those shipping emails ye who will receive them!
(And my sale when I can get to it! Soon I hope!)

Les
 
Bzzzz Bzzzz sending some positive vibes to you Les :)

Thanks buddy. I needs em!
Ma has another infection now also, one that can affect her mental state, so that may explain some of the last few days behavior with things.
:sick I have a sore throat today, and a fever, probably the cold, the blooming flowers all about us, and the stress with Ma. Not so stressed with work though, so good news soon. Just slow due to all this other.

Again, hang with me. Just a quick note to let you all know I still live! :D

Back soon! :rock
 
Just a quick note about when I ever post in this, or any other, site....

I get, from time to time, either posts in threads, or PMs, even emails, asking why I post online and am not painting...right now...this minute!
Let me explain something to those that question what I do with my time...
For one, thing, my computer is just to the right of my workdesk. A chair spin to the right. It stays on for either refs or music or whatever. When I take a break from painting or whatever, even when I am sick, like I am at present, sore throat, fever, etc., I often stop painting, for a few precious minutes, and do something else. I cannot paint 24/7/365. I have to occasionally, STOP.

So, what better time to spend than to post here, and other places online.

And if I have to defend that, when I have been OFFLINE and not able to even get in solid worktime, or get on a computer hardly at all, for months, and am just now getting my sea legs back, as it were, then FOOEY ON YOUEY!
I will post, and post here, and post pics, and update and do what I can, when I can, at my discretion. I have a lot of stuff I am behind on, but whipping me to it, is not the way to get me working faster. If anything, I get slower when I get pressed and pressured. So, let a guy take a few would ya? Without criticisms? I don't criticise you (those that are offended), as I don't know what your day consists of.

And to those that do criticize, try walking in my shoes.



I have posting and painting to do. Thanks for the rant. I needed it.

Anyway, back to work, as I am sure someone out there is unhappy that I am not totally suicidal yet. LOL

As John Wayne always said, "That'll be the day!" :D
Crazy nuts! :D Thanks for the laughs though.

Headed to the doctor in minutes. Was talking to DA Josh and lost my voice entirely. I just don't feel good today. Cranky. In a feisty mood with this thing. :monkey4 :sick :duh

i'm pretty sure there used to be an oldie show called "pimp my armchair". we can get you fully kitted out with a skull on the adjusting nob, some neat hydraulics, big ass speakers out the side, and some furry dice too. you'll never have to leave. WHY ARE YOU USING YOUR EYES TO READ THIS POST WHEN THEY COULD BE BEING USED AS A PAINT SWAB - GET SWABBING!!
