Jusssst got in from settling down my father-in-law, mostly. He is a real handful. A good portion of that time was spent explaining The Real Truth to my Mother-In-Law - while briskly pacing/outwalking Frank and his walker so he couldn't hear a good part of it and protest...Whether she wanted to hear it or not? She heard it.

Teh Man is resting, not so much comfortably, but resting. His temp was not really too elevated, and the doctor is arriving on housecall tomorrow afternoon to see Frank. I left Frank written instructions on what to do - call me if he has any increase in sharp pain or elevation in temp - and if the number is busy? Email me.

Fed him his dinner, cleaned it up. Teh Man can not hold anything down, so I got him Gatorade.

SO glad DJ had already gotten his homework out of the way...he may be missing school tomorrow with this late night. Both of us are stressed out.

So, there you have it.

So.

Waited all night for a call that didn't come.

Whatever. Have done what I can do, I guess.

It's not the pancreas. It's an ulcer.

That explains the low-temp, etc.

Name ten things that bring you a moment of joy; tag five friends to do the same.

1. Seeing my children grow - despite circumstance and myself - into fantastic, warm, thoughtful, imaginative, responsible human beings.
2. A nice cuppa joe - preferrably chocolate or hazelnut, or some other 'sissy' flavour.
3. MUSIC. IT IS EVERYTHING. MAGIC INCARNATE.
4. Random ephipanies that just strike you out of the blue like, '"Hey. Pay attention, here." - God'.
5. Those moments at work - in the midst of the melee - where I connect with my residents and know I've done good..made a difference.
6. SO many people - online and in RL.
7. Yoga
8. NIGHTS OFF to do what I want to do.
9. The way the sun streams in the kitchen window in the morning..reminding me that THIS IS MY PLACE, NOW.
10. THE CURE - in so many more ways than just #3. It's a way of life, a way of seeing the world..a way of being.

I tag: Gayalithiel, LunaRising, Beetle_breath, _Scarlet_ibis_, and FFarff.
