8:55 am - She is gone.
|
This is Precious posting for Tim again.
Patches left this realm a few minutes after 8 this morning. The vet cried along besides us. There was nothing they could have done, other than to try to keep her in the hospital to keep some of the pain at bay. (She was already starting to jaundice.) I don't think Patches or Tim could have handled her being in a hospital for her remaining days.
Tim, the vet, her assistant, and I held her and stroked her as she passed quietly.
These are pictures I took last night of them saying goodbye, there are three (click to see).

7:51 pm - Early Christmas present - a poem for Precious
|
There is a woman that I know
When I look deep into her eyes,
I see parts of me I never knew were there
When I see her smile,
It's like the sun through the clouds and I never want it to go away
When I hear her laugh,
It's like the world is a perfect place to be
When I see her cry,
I wish I really was magic enough to take away the hurt
When I look at her hand,
I see the one ring that symbolizes the commitment we have made to our family and one another
When I feel her arms wrapped around me,
I know it'll all be ok as long as she is here
When I'm lying next to her at night,
My body craves her touch
When I look into her mind,
I desire to know so much more about her
When I look into her heart,
I see so much love it overwhelms and humbles me
When I look into her soul,
I see the other half of mine
There is a woman that I know
Like none I've ever known before
So much more than all the rest
More Precious then I could have ever dreamed of...
-- Tim Brents, Christmas 2006
For Jenifer, my wife and soulmate and so much more
current mood:  pleased

Many thanks for all the congrats and well wishes.
From shes_precious's journal:
People have asked about wedding gifts. As we have both had households individually in the past and now together we are fairly well stocked on things. AND we don't feel comfortable trying to rack up on loot from our friends.
So, in lieu of a gift our first request would be that you make a donation to the Susan G. Komen Foundation or your local breast cancer fundraising events.
If you really want to do something for us we can always use manual labor in the basement ... and Home Depot gift cards. But we honestly would prefer you make the donation above. We know that I owe my life to the phenomenal research that has been done for this cause and the phenomenal training and new techniques that oncology teams are receiving. We would be honored if you helped save another life. That would be an awesome way to honor our commitment as a family.
Thanks.
Jen & Tim

5:35 pm - Let the party begin!
|
On November 22nd I am going to take my sweet Precious down to the Gwinnett County courthouse and we are going to get married. :)
We've been discussing our future together and our level and type of commitment for a while now and I've been struggling with my baggage and that whole "I don't care if GOD (whoever that is) thinks it's ok for us to be a couple and I don't need his approval or the govt's, etc..." (Yeah, there's a stick up my butt, but I'll get over it) so it's been up in the air for a while as to what we were actually going to do or when. Most recently we had been talking about a simple handfasting ceremony in May.
In discussions with DFCS recently about Tylors adoption it became evident that they would be MUCH more happy if we were actually officially married. In their words "There is no precedent for opposite-sex couples with domestic partnerships to adopt"...or something silly like that.
I love her with all my heart and she is definitely the other half of my soul so this is where we belong.
We decided to go ahead and do it quickly since the timing is convenient and that way it won't hamper the adoption at all.
I called my Mom and told her and she reminded me that November 22nd is their anniversary too, which is kind of neat. Plus she can call and remind me when she calls Dad to remind him. :)
Don't fret however as there will be a big party/celebration/gathering/get together which friends will be invited too. Right now we are looking at the beginning of May sometime but that may change.
*and there was much rejoicing* :D
So now I have about 2 1/2 weeks to come up with some really cool and romantic way to actually ask her to marry me. :) Please email any suggestions to the email address on my info page so she won't see them posted here.
current mood:  excited

12:50 pm - Any internet/modem/router experts out there?
|
I have DSL service through Earthlink. Usually their service is really good but lately I have been having some problems.
I have a Vision Net E200ER ADSL modem and a Belkin Wireless Router.
Under normal conditions I have been connected to the internet through the router using PPPoE. When I am connected in this manner the PPPoE light on the modem has always been off for some reason. Everything has worked fine though.
Lately the PPPoE light on the modem has been coming on, as if Earthlink has changed something. All calls to Earthlink have been fruitless in this area as all I can get is a trainee in India who only knows how to follow the prompts on his monitor.
If I connect my PC (running WindowsXP) directly to the modem I am able to connect and everything works fine.
If I set the router to connect via a Dynamic connection instead of PPPoE then I am able to connect to the internet but the connection is unstable. The greatest proof being that when I try to connect to the MMORPG that shes_precious and I play (Horizons) I consistently get dropped after a very short time and get an error that there was a "connection issue".
If I set the router to connect via PPPoE it consistently times out and won't make a connection.
I am fairly computer literate but a novice in this area. I'm sure there is just a setting or something that I am missing but I am getting pretty frustrated since it appears that everything should work as it is but won't.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also if you need more details about the setup please let me know.
