What a bad year 2012 has been. First my dad passes away on Mother Day, then last week, my Grandmother, who was my Dad's mom, passed away in the same, slow, agonizing, and eventual morphine induced manner. They both ended up in the same nursing home, and it was very tough to go through for myself, my brothers, and my mom, It's just the four of us now, and I hope we have a long, healthy time ahead of us. The thing things that keep me going are faith, and the fact that no matter how bad things are for me, someone else is always worse off.
Now, in much more positive and uplifting news....
The always dependable site, Thrillers, Killers 'n' Chillers hosted a Halloween Horror Competition and have announced the winner and runner ups. Can't wait to read the stories once they are featured. A big round of congrats to all who participated. Well Done. Check out the announcement
HERE...and be sure to give the stories a read when available.
Sean, I have been through a couple of bad patches of time like that where it has seemed like everyone I knew was either dying or going through some kind of calamity, but at least my own experience is that it doesn't stay like this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the horror competition link. I hope to read a little horror on Halloween and this is definitely something I'll be checking out...
Seana- Thanks, and I def believe, better times are ahead
DeleteI am sorry for your rough year. 2010 was like that for me. It takes a while to recover. I wish you well of course.
ReplyDeleteCharles- Thanks for the kid words and I know you have your own challenges you have been dealing with. My best wishes to you and your wife. Both are included in my prayers!
