Weekend Wrap-Up

Just a short one today, since this isn't a movie, and I can't just use the dark screen to signify time passing...

Slightly abnormal week - I've worked a bit more than usual, tended the girls a bit more than usual, and the youngest has been in hyper-drive all week getting ready to move.

Jenny packed up her room last night,and was feeling the angst. She kept going to her room, then minutes later would return to tell us something else that needed to be done.
Hubby and I started timing her - "How long do you think it will be before she comes out this time?" ...Sort of like a broken cuckoo.
It took her a while to wind down and finally go to bed. Tomorrow is the big day, so she's covering all her bases, bless her. I completely understand her anxiousness, but she's making me nervous and weary too.

Not such a good day for hubby's family. Grandpa is doing better, in fact he may be coming home soon. But things aren't going so well for his brother. He (hubby) called me from the cancer center yesterday in tears because he was almost non-responsive. They sent him in for an MRI - and had to send him back because his body wasn't strong enough to endure it.
He has pneumonia and it's getting worse - breathing tubes etc. It's getting so hard for hubby to watch.
Cancer is mean business - if the disease doesn't kill you, the treatment will.

I've had better weeks too - it's starting to wear on me being alone so much. Been in a bit of a depressed mode.

We'll be spending the day in Ephraim tomorrow, getting Jenny settled. Meanwhile, it's our last day together for a while, so I guess we should ENJOY.

A little good news too - yesterday we learned that my son finally landed a job in Seattle - at the school he's planning to attend. Now if his wife can just get her transfer...

I'm sure it's wearing on them being apart.

My family is all busy today, so I'm going to attempt to cheer myself up by playing with my art supplies.
