I got a call that my favorite cousin, James just died of cancer.
I wasn't even aware that he was ill. I've been so caught up in my own misery that I've paid no attention to much else.

My guilt got me busy and I started to install the kitchen floor.
I finished it, actually. I still have to tidy up some details, but it's basically done.
I did the hallway a few days ago and have just one bedroom left and it's only a 12'x15'. It should be a five or 6 hour job.

I'm sorry to hear that, Ed.
I think i am guilty of worrying too much about myself and missing the bigger picture, too.
However, clearly they didn't inform you he was seriously ill.
I don't believe you're the type of chap to ignore it if they had.
Yeah, i do redecoration when i'm feeling guilty.
I must do wifey's window.
Been inattentive to her the last couple of days.
Really sorry to hear that Ed

Im sorry for your loss!
So sorry to hear this Ed, it's a shame his family didn't let you know.
Don't feel guilty Ed if you didn't know there was nothing you could do. Four of my elderly neighbours I've known all my life have died this year and I missed all the funerals because I didn't find out until weeks afterwards. Being in work I rarely see people in my street to chat to and no one thought to knock my door. I took flowers to express my apologies and condolences to families.
How sad.
i doubt anyone would doubt your sincerity and kindness, either.

I don't speak much to the vast majority of my family.
I live in a vacuum and I shut down when things aren't going very well.
I should be a better person. A better friend. I'm very sorry for not articulating how much I care about certain people right up to the time that it's too late to do so.
It's a major defect in my personality.
With hind sight we could all be better people, and we think we have unlimited time to catch up with family and friends - but it's only when we lose someone we realise we don't and should use the time we have. I'm not very good at keeping in touch with people either. I love getting together with friends but they all have families so usually wait until they make contact first because I worry I'm interrupting their time, I should make the effort though - they could always ring me back if they're busy!
I had a toasted bagel with marmalade - so breakfast really.
It was all I fancied - and didn't need a microwave!

I've managed to slip and bust my butt once and slip and catch myself once already on the new wood.
It's because I wear socks inside the house and this crap is slick!
More area rugs are needed, but it seems stupid to remove wall to wall carpeting, lay down teak wood and then buy more carpeting.
Hopefully I'll get used to this floor
