Made it home

[cornerofmadness]

About 15 minutes after my uncle died. It's okay because the suffering is over and he and I said goodbye in January. He knew it would be the last time he saw me. My parents weren't going to go to Mexico on monday but they changed their minds. We're all going. My uncle isn't having a funeral per his wishes.

Also did I mention it rained mud last night. My poor SUV is trashed. Apparently the storm front picked up a huge dust storm in Texas and rained mud over KY and OH. At this point I'm shocked it wasn't raining frogs (It rained fish on me once in Cleveland)

Found a new fanfic challenge I want to do. It can be short and that'll be nice.


It's International women's day and if I had planned better I'd have a story to share but no. However, in a few weeks I should be able to share my women in medical history presentation on YT I think. Hopefully.

Sorry for your loss dear.

Raining mud and fish? Wow.

[cornerofmadness]

thanks so much

The mud was gross. As for the fish, I used to live on one of the great lakes and the winds basically turned in to a water spout and sucked fish out of the lake

My sympathies for you and your family. <3

[cornerofmadness]

thank you

[badly_knitted]

*hugs* so sorry, thinking of you and your family.

Mud rain sounds disgusting, the only rain that your car dirtier than it was before. Usually rain washes muck off instead of adding to it.

[cornerofmadness]

thank you, I appreciate it

It was SO disgusting

[badly_knitted]

I can only imagine. Driving in it would be a nightmare.

[cornerofmadness]

luckily it happened in the early morning hours with few on the road

[badly_knitted]

Very fortunate.

[cornerofmadness]

agreed, just learned friends in Virginia also got hit which is about 400 miles further along. one heck of a mud storm

[badly_knitted]

Heavens! There must be many miles of muddy roads and an awful lot of muddy vehicles after all that.

[cornerofmadness]

the car washes are making out like bandits. Dad had to put mine thru twice and it's still not clean

[badly_knitted]

That mud must be sticky stuff!

At least someone's making money...

[cornerofmadness]

there was so much of it

[badly_knitted]

There might be roads that will need shovelling from the sound of it!

[cornerofmadness]

darned near

[badly_knitted]

Not a job I'd want.

[cornerofmadness]

ditto

I'm sorry for your loss. Even though you knew it was coming, it's hard.

I'm glad your parents have decided to go on the trip.

I've heard about the raining mud thing from various people! That is really spread out.

[cornerofmadness]

Yes it is, thank you

They could use the break

I know it hit KY/OH for sure. It was so wild. Dad went out and freaked out seeing my poor SUV

Just thought I'd...

[dauntless_heart]

...send you a tight hug.

Re: Just thought I'd...
