My Dad

Last week I went to visit my Dad. He's dying. He has advance diabetes. His has heart problems, several blood clots in his leg, his kidneys are slowing down....other than that he's fine. I got the fun task of going over the will, picking what i wanted of all his posessions, meeting his vascular doc. So not a whole lot of FF playing during that time period.

However, when I did get back a couple of things happended. First, I got a pt. A monk pt in gustav's. It was fun got 10k and got my eva maxed out. Later me and Keone went around Sea Serpents Grotto. We were trying to kill blubbering eyes but we didn't get the drop. We got a map for me (yipeee). Then we took on the mindgrazer that had killed us before. Now i'm 66 (i was 65 last time) but keone was 69. We tore it up and i got Golden Hakutaku Eye drop. Keone says it sells for big bucks in jeuno but to save it for the Hakutaku cluster to get the optical hat. My sister played the next day. The following day I pt'd for 9 hours. Got 27k in exp...and now i'm 67...6k from 68.

Before we went to florida, my sister and I went to see the ASO who were doing the Dear Friends program.
