will19 - I'm glad you rekindled the connection with your ex-friend, if he's able to be supportive when times are trying. Sounds like you have a significant history together. Your bond with him may have it's limitations. I've had a few friendships like that, where I had to adjust my expectations, so as not to be chronically disappointed. But there was still value in keeping the connections going. I hope your difficult situation resolves soon in a favorable manner.
I, myself, am hanging in there. Been doing my pre-holiday cleaning of my place. I feel pretty good, but I have to push myself. I'm inclined to spend too much time in my recliner, surfing the net.
