Oh, Shir! I am so sorry to hear this. I was really looking forward to you having this escape and distraction from the day-to-day stresses. I was also looking forward to the hugs! I do hope some solution presents itself.
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Oh, Shir, that stinks, but I will continue to hold out hope. My doors are open whenever, friend.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
This sucks a lot. :(

Thank you, all. I really appreciate your posts. I was really looking forward to see as many of you as possible. I'll speak with my travel agent on Sunday to see if there's a detour via Europe sometime in the next two weeks, but damn. I really wanted this vacation and some time off to clear my mind a bit from everything here.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
My Friday night: rocking out to a 35-year-old B-52's album and buying underwear online. I am out of control, y'all.

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.
I mopped the kitchen floor.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
Mr. Loomycakes is out of town at a big Magic: the Gathering event, being Mr. Famous Artist. I decided I wanted a charcuterie plate, so I used DoorDash to have a bunch of fancy snacks delivered. I'm justifying this to myself with the knowledge that, given the opportunity, I will eat charcuterie plates as often as I can.

Ha! My friend calls this Girl Dinner.
They do have a particularly fabulous charcuterie option at my bar, Alembic. With the requisite cheese and meats but also garlic confit and fig jam and coarse grained mustard etc. Not to mention a fab vegan mushroom pate.
