Just like most of the country, we've had an unusually warm winter. It's been fine with the exception of not having any snow for Christmas, i wasn't a fan of that in the least. Not having to deal with the roads and travel has been a blessing though. i'm not a good traveler when the roads are bad or even when they are, for that matter. So when we have plans to go out of town for the first time since Christmas of course it snows! i mean like it's really snowing and i can only hope it tapers off enough for the roads to clear and get completely clear by tomorrow night. It's sort of a big deal because it would be our first local munch and i would hate to cancel for any reason, so we'll see. It's not my choice of course, it's Masters and He won't let me be the deciding factor.
The last few weeks my sister has been complaining of some pain (which she rarely does) and decided to go to the doctor, another thing she rarely does. It was what we suspected, her gallbladder. Interestingly enough you commonly think that only heavy people who eat all fat have gallbladder trouble. It can happen to someone who is just the opposite as well. If you are too thin and don't eat enough fat, your gallbladder can malfunction just as quickly. This is the case with her. For some reason her husband decided to "text" my brother who is traveling instead of call me, when i am home and very easily accessible. This morning she had an acute attack and was scheduled for surgery this evening. my brother left me a voice mail on my cell phone, i've told my brother numerous times that when i am home my cell phone just isn't something i check or even hear and please call the house. Master actually heard my cell ringing tonight, when i spoke to my brother he started with "her surgery will be at 5:30pm". UMMM. So i was able to ascertain that it was my sister's gall bladder.
Ya know, people do silly things when they are in stressful situations, so maybe that's why her husband didn't call me, i don't know. i have to say this though, other than her husband and i don't even know if he can be included, there is NO ONE closer to her in the world than me. i should have been first on his mind on his "who to call" list. Okay, /end rant.
i apologize for bringing this here but sometimes blogs are awesome for venting and not bothering Masters/Husbands with yakkitty yack yack yack. So thank you for letting me blab. =)
i hope everyone that is getting blasted with this storm has very safe travels!
Peace to you and yours,

3 Sentiments
I will gladly send you some of my snow. This year has been the most now fall in years and years for us here in the last frontier.
I too would be upset if no one called me if it were my sister. Feel free, at least as far as I'm concerned, to rant on. :)
A good rant is good once in a while, and that's what blogs are here for! :)
Hope your sister recovers quickly, and I'm going to continue to do my naked snow dance so I get some snow over here, too!
Thank you both! Last night my niece called and said that my sister's surgery went fine and that she should be home from the hospital in a couple days. i haven't spoken to her yet but as long as i know she's doing well, i can wait to talk to her.
Thanks again for the ear, sometimes it's just good to sit down and pound it all out on the keys isn't it? =)
