Off We Go [Sir Jury!]

[Catty1]

I would think park staff would be getting everyone out, or posting warnings and closing roads.

Today is the 25th....on the 22nd she said 3 1/2 days...

I'll drop her a PM and check!

[Taz_Zoee]

She had PM'd me before they left and said she'd be back in range Monday morning. Because we were going to possibly get together tonight. But I haven't heard from her. I know the road to get up there was closed, so maybe they are stuck for a while longer. Hopefully we will hear from her later today.

[Karen]

I just got a message from Gina, via relay operator. She is okay, they are just tired, and exhausted and bothered by the smoke. The ranger came by, and the road they need to take is currently closed, but they will repoen it tomorrow, and so they will be able to leave then.

She wanted to let everyone know, and to not worry. Sorry I missed her actual call, but I am posting this for her.

[Taz_Zoee]

Thank you Karen. I'm so glad she contacted you. I was getting very worried, even though there have been no injuries reported because of the fire.
I had her cell phone number, but accidentally deleted it.
Good to hear they are all okay.

[Catty1]

Good news! Thanks, Karen!

[phesina]

So glad to know she's all right! Thank you.

[sandragonfly]

okay I will!

as for looking forward, not so looking forward to wedding day. my sister had "forgotten" or "couldn't find" me an interpreter for her special day. I'm sorry, but this is one of proprities of having a deaf relative!! yet, acts like she hasn't known me all her life. I've warned, terps are so (and always) expensive and impossibly hard to get for anything; appointments, meetings, except for courts, this is why you always should request two months or so in advance.

outrageous.. either it'd be a memorial one or ruined.. like usual. well, I never really had a family. now I (and two other deaf guests - her godparents) may have no idea what their vows will be, or what my brother (best man) is going to say.. most disappointed. my poor grandmother is working hard on this, I insisted her to take that stress off herself as she already has enough. it's not surely possible to find one I need since it's only two days away.. and costs waaay more for "emergency" terps... I would help if I could. people!

and I don't even have a dress yet. oh well, we shall see! at least I can hug my niece all day long, either on that day or the next. off my soapbox now, thanks for listening.

edit ~ folks, I've posted more about my surgery here, please check it out for some lucks.

[Husky_mom]

thanks for letting me know about your boy...... he is a mayor cutie!!!

can´t wait to see those swimmers too

hope everything goes well with your knee and all family related issues can be solved......

is there anyone in your family that can fill you in??.... no one.....

[Catty1]

Gosh - it would be nice if the godparents had a connection? Someone they knew?

Actually, having fun with your niece is going to be great, you love her so much! And the grownups will be doing 'boring' things, so she will love having you there.

Your dress....whatever colour it is, you could make a really sarcastic statement at the wedding by getting matching headphones....grrrrr.....idiots!

HUGS to you. Will look at the link!

[sandragonfly]

thanks you two. no.. no one could fill me in, it's not right asking for my family to terp anyway, and they're suppose to have a good time. not into all frustrations of timing, when to terp and how to sign that, this and that, etc. they'd be already scrambled up right before we enter the church.

but... good news is, I found a county certified interpreter for tomorrow!! this woman who used to terp for me a loooong time ago, a sweetheart and a friend! she also has three cats and two dogs. gee, I can't believe I almost forgot all about her! so, luckily she has no plans this weekend as she works as a full-time weekend terp..YAY. oh and would do waaay low cost just for me for my sister in regard of explaining my situation...thank god. ok, enough blabs about this unless you understand what's like being deaf.

ooh.. am all nervous about tomorrow.. haven't seen my father and mother or talked to them for years expect I saw my father on his father's day for a very short time and they will be there. plus, a few issues between my sister and our aunts/uncles because of having a baby so young. I don't like to speak with them either. I just pray that all will go fine and mostly, fun! I'll be the one who watches my neice during this big day so I'll just have my eyes all stick to her.

going out to laast doctor appointment soon today, I hope it goes well!! will be having surgery in ten days.. yikes, ten days already?? yay, can't wait!
