Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Hope all goes well today, Tep. Would it be any help to talk to alcohol rehab pros and find out if your brother's tapering idea is a good or at least not-terrible one?
I'm sitting on some good news it is not mine to tell, but if you vaguely feel the world is a happier place, you're not wrong.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Hugs and other supportive gestures to all the Buffista family.
Connie, I'm glad the ALF is there to watch over your dad.
Teppy, hopefully he hushed up enough for you both to get some rest and that today is a step closer to rehab.
While we had an inch or so of snow at our house, there was next to nothing at the airport. I really should check the forecast for Salt Lake.

Thinking good thoughts for Dana's Dh, Consuela and your dad, Steph and your brother. A lot going on.
Rain here, lots of rain.

I really should check the forecast for Salt Lake.
The snow came through yesterday, it looks like it will be clear and getting warmer the rest of the week. Highs in the 40s.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
What msbell said. Many good thoughts and vibes out to all of you dealing with bad things.
Connie, I'm glad the ALF is there to watch over your dad.
I read this that Alf (the puppet) was watching over Connie's dad. I am not sure if Alf would be a good caretaker. Also, for some reason Alf alway reminded me of Ronald Reagan (I was 13 - 15 when it was on). I seriously thought that they were satirizing Ronald Reagan through Alf.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I can kind of see that. Based on stills, anyway. I never watched Alf, but I am having trouble imagining what satirical political subtext it might have had.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I read this that Alf (the puppet) was watching over Connie's dad.
Yup.
Rain here, lots of rain.
Yup.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
My brother has an appointment today with his therapist. I'm looking forward to the therapist's input on Jeff's attempt to taper off alcohol without going to the hospital.
Jeff is still sleeping right now, so I have blessed silence. My brother is one of my favorite people in the world, but I'm used to spending most of the day alone, so having someone there 24/7 is weird. (Even on the weekends, when Tim is around, he isn't a chatterbox. I've gotten used to Beckmeyer stoicism!)
I am drinking some seriously good coffee, though. Benefits of a SiL who's a coffee buyer.
