Happy Fourth of July, everyone!
The game shall resume on Monday, 05 July.
I just lost my main computer's hard drive on Wednesday. More than 5 years old. Let that be a warning - backup, backup, backup! I'm running off computer #2 right now, which isn't too bad (85% functional). I've ordered a new hard drive (and an upgrade from Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Professional) for the original computer.
This event has given me an opportunity to reorganize, etc.

Wow! Yeah I've taken to having everything on both Google Drive and Norton Back up, just to be safe. Cloud storage is your friend. And I have an external Hard Drive just to be safe.

Hi folks!
We had a week off - school starting? Last of the summer vacations? I know Hajar/Rayhan probably has a entire school year to start and manage.
I'm here if you are here!
Male Human Gamemaster
Still waiting...
I've got tomatoes in the garden, a fig tree exploding with figs, and grass that needs cutting every 3 days. Plus, with North Carolina, there's always the threat of hurricanes from the Gulf.
Of course, the way you guys & gals are going through this Palace, there might not be any creatures on this Level once you go South again...

Sorry, wasn't getting updates
Male Human Gamemaster
I hope everyone is planning a nice Labor Day for themselves, and is not stuck in the leftovers of Hurricane Ida. Said hurricane did nothing to central NC - a nice wind under cloudy skies, and less than 1 inch of rain. Yawn. I still have to cut the grass every 3-4 days under this ideal grass growing weather!

The entire NYC/LI/NJ train and subway system was shut down, had a tornado 15 mins from my house. Was pretty unreal for a hurricane to have that much power left after traveling from Louisiana to New York over land.

Well, if you believe in the HAARP weather machines, there's your answer.
But yes, that sounds scary, Nasir.

Still here and ready for players' actions!

Yay! Activity! And the game goes on!
Male Human Gamemaster
I need a new computer. Any recommendations? It's either going to be something from https://www.ibuypower.com/ or self-built using ibuypower as a blueprint.
It won't be right away, as my cash flow is a glacier, as the saying goes. But I'd like something that doesn't crash every 48 hours, like my current HP Elite 8300.
I've always custom-built my PCs... though of course that can cause annoyances sometimes. I don't have specific recommendations, but if you put together a build plan I can give you feedback on some of the parts, potentially.
Male Human Gamemaster
Holidays are here - things might be a little slow, but I am still online!
That being said, my elderly mother is having breathing problems so we are going to visit her doctor tomorrow (11/23).
Sorry for the delays lately.

*sends hugs for the madre*
Male Human Gamemaster
Thanks, Yazi.
My mother has congestive heart failure, according to the X-ray, with fluid around her lungs and in her lungs. Hence the breathing problems. But her younger brother in Texas also has CHF, and was up and walking within days. So some good news.
I'll be going back and forth to the hospital for the next few days.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Hope they're able to treat things and she's back to moving around and breathing fine soon.

Sorry about the wait! My mother is out of the hospital, no heart stints needed, just new medications.

Thanks, everyone. Yes, my mother is better. She's now trying to find natural, alternative foods and supplements to the medicines the doctors gave her, because she doesn't like the side effects. But I made sure she kept the initial prescriptions, and uses them when needed.
Happy New Year! 2022 has GOT to be better than the last two years.

Happy New Year to you all. It has been a rough start for us.
Everyone is safe, but my parents’ house burnt down last night while they were at a friend’s house for the ball drop.
We are visiting my parents and my in-laws. They live near each other and we all get along very well (I love my in-laws and my wife loves my parents). My wife, son and I have been at my wife’s parents, but we ate dinner at my parents house last night. Kind of still in shock.
A lot of memories in that house, there is some hope that some items in the basement might not be completely burnt, but nearly everything else is.
My parents are staying at a friend’s house for now while the friends are out of town. The people who offered their house are some of the kindest people I know. My parents are surrounded by a lot of loving friends and neighbors.
Counting the blessings that no one is hurt.

Holy crap, that's insane! Do they even have any idea what caused the fire yet? Glad they're safe.
Male Human Expert 1 Warrior 1
We don’t know the cause of the fire. May be too much damage to determine. A neighbor took this picture during the fire. iCloud link It is still pretty surreal.

Wow, MichaelCullen! To happen on New Year's Eve! Did you also have that crazy weather on 03 January - winds, rain, sleet, and snow?
At least no one was hurt!

Still praying for MichaelCullen's family after the loss of their parent's house.
We have another "winter storm" planned for Sunday, 16 January. It could go all the way up the Appalachian Mountains from Georgia to New York. Eight inches of snow in the mountains of NC. So prepare early and stay safe out there, players.
Male Human Gamemaster
Sorry folks, I've been sick the last couple of days. Getting more fluids in now.

Wife and son tested positive. Pretty sure I have it now. We were supposed to get our boosters tomorrow. sigh

Okay, I'm back - on the downhill side of this cough. Let the game continue!

Old Man Winter is rolling the dice again for a snow-blowout on a January weekend.
Updates tomorrow!

Sorry everyone, I had to admit my mother to the local hospital last night. I'll update as soon as I can. My mother was incoherent and not waking up fully. She went from the ER to the ICU last night, and I left her sleeping peacefully.
Male Human Expert 1 Warrior 1
I will say a prayer for her and your family.
Male Human Gamemaster
Hello players,
My mother Shirle died yesterday (13 April 2022) at the hospice home. Her body couldn't take the travel from the hospital to the hospice, and she died as soon as she got to her room. Shirle died peacefully, asleep for the past 3 days.
Thank you for all your prayers.
I will continue the game as soon as I am able.

Jeremy, my prayers are with your family.
Though the loss here is immense, I hope your family finds some comfort that your mom and your dad are once again together.
May she rest In peace and greet you, when in God’s good time, you leave this world as well.

Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes and prayers. It's been rough, but I'm staying busy.

Take the time to hold on to a few of your most cherished memories. Have her favorite meal, read a book or watch a movie she loved.
