PORCH PONDERINGS

Problem Overload...

Still no news about my missing grandson. In case you didn't read my previous posting, my Marine grandson has been missing from his post since April 22nd. Nothing yet about what happened. Truly a mystery. We pray daily for some news. Good or bad. Just to know what happened.

And then we are still dealing with the car accident. The car was declared a total loss. So now we are borrowing a vehicle from a friend. We may get a Jeep. But an older one. We want a vehicle that is sturdy enough to stand up to these animal collisions, not crumple on contact and be unfixable.

Then more bad news it seems every day. The stress just keeps coming. The son of a friend, coincidentally the friend that lent us the vehicle we're now driving, passed away unexpectedly. He had been in the hospital with some heart issues and died on the way home. Jerry was in his late 40's. Such bad news.

Other people I know have been sick or have had other accidents. I am just so exhausted by all the problems.

But then the other day the bank told us someone had changed our bank password. So we travel down to Billings to open a new account, since the compromised account was on hold. By the time we are almost done, we find out the password was changed by someone in their accounting department. Oops. So not only did we waste 3 hours of our time, driving and all; we wasted an hour and more of the bank employees time since she now had to undo all the work she just did. Arrghh.

Right now I really don't feel like writing. Anything. Even writing in this Blog seems onerous. I pray it gets better.
