Days like this…

,,,are made to make you remember what you have…

I have my two beautiful Critters.
I have my Mum.
I have a wonderful boyfriend…Even if he is 600+ miles away most of the time.
I have my health…It’s mostly good…I have my aches & pains, but it’s nothing serious…Nothing life threatening. & My mind…Well, it’s my mind, and it’s just special like that. *laughs*

One of Mum’s friends is under a lot of stress, she’s bi-polar, and usually does fairly well…In the last couple months one of their household group had a heart attack, one of them died, and her husband has been pretty sick (but is doing better now), on top of that, one of her close friends lost their husband, and while she was trying to hold her together, kind of fell apart herself. The shop now is talking possible strike…The company is talking possible closing if they do strike…It’s a mess…Mum’s friend has gone back on meds, but still…Her son also has a couple things wrong with his health (gall bladder for one, which should have been out months ago, but with no insurance, and he doesn’t trust doctors…It’s taking a while to get it done). Mum is keeping an eye on her while they are at work.

Reese called a little while ago…
A couple weeks ago her mother was in the hospital, on a respirator. She got off and was doing good and got to go home. When she called to tell her something this morning, her father answered instead, and told her that her mother was heading back to the ER. [Her mother has bad health to begin with…A couple summers ago they thought she was going to lose her sight, it has gone and returned a couple times, luckily it returned again tho.]
Now…We get to why Reese was calling her mother to begin with. Reese got a phone call from her doctor…It was to inform her that there was a slim chance that her cancer has returned.

Harley goes in for his appointment in two weeks to get the bump removed. I still refuse to think about it being anything other than just a strange little bump that decided to pop up. It’s nothing more than that, and I know that I’m lucky for that…As my family history SUCKS.

I’m lucky to have my Mum…Two of my younger cousins don’t. My Mum’s sister & her sister-in-law both died of cancer. [The sister-in-law was due to her smoking for years.]

I miss Dominic…I joked with Sonja, yesterday I think it was, that now that she outgrew my clothes and we can’t share many of them anymore, that her and Dominic would probably be sharing clothes.
It’s still hard to believe he would of turned 19 last March…

Still waiting for grades…Not sure when they are suppose to be in.

Critters have a month left of school…Harley has a fieldtrip Monday…& two weeks from yesterday. Sonja is suppose to have a fieldtrip, if they can get drivers. The last day is half a day & a game day for the school.

Waz should be up in about a month. *smiles*

Now…I am off to find a printable torso, so I can try and sketch out the outfit I have in my mind, in the hopes I’ll be able to create it. I think I’ve got a pretty good idea of what I want.
