Well, now things are... better.  I'll be online for the foreseeable future.  That very big problem actually managed to mostly get fixed, turning it into a much more manageable issue. 

However... in all the excitement, my sister had a sort of mini seizure.  It as probably less stress related and more like... um, heat stress related.  Things have quieted down on their own though, but it's atypical both in the event and the followup.  I'm not sure how to handle that idea.  Yeah, I'm happy it seems to be over, but I'm nervous when things go differently than they usually do.

"Usual" is a relative term, of course. 

Anyway, just figured I'd give an update, such as it is.
