Any updates on the situation Shardian?
Hoping no news is good news!

Not sure what part of the country you are in, but if it's Colorado, you'll be glad to already be in the hospital. Shoveling a path there would take a while.

She is still in the hospital. She will be going thru some more tests today to see where she stands. I am so far behind at work. It is very hard for me to concentrate right now. - and the stress is really starting to get to me. Once I run out of excuses as to why I am behind, I may be joining donkey kong in the unemplyment line.

I thought you said they were family friendly and would cut you enough slack...?  Do you have other kids to take care of while your wife is in the hospital?

Well, I had this long post all written and then I realized it was a bit whiny. I feel better typing it all out, but now I'll present the revised edition

Basically, my company is family friendly, but they still want me to get work done if possible. The problem is my head is just not there. It was the same way when I took off for Riley - I know where I need to be, but I always feel the pull to obligations, you know? It's like this little voice in your head that says, "they don't really mean take off the time. They really want you to get back in there and take one for the team". You never know right? That is the feeling I am talking about that eats at me and frustrates me to the point I can't relax. What I want more than anything is to cut loose from all my obligations and just be with my family with a clear mind.

To sum up, the last year of my life has sucked horribly. To tell the truth, the arcade hobby and this forum are probably the only things that keep me sane.

I believe this is the first time in history that this forum and hobby have been described in the same breath as keeping someone sane!
