Sunsets, Serendipity and Sneezes

Since I wasn't able to go to the beach this weekend, I am bringing the beach to me. Each day, I am going to fill my vision with those that I love and miss. I had thought that I might be able to go on Spring break...but from the looks of it, I am not. Perhaps it will work out...I don't know. I only go one day at a time. Maybe, for the time being, this will curb the craving. Would you just look at that sunset? Dang me, yes, I am there, on the sand dune, kicking back and melting into the scene...
So, it was Monday. Shining in all it's glory. I had a mess of stuff to do and still try to be a mom, too. I think I did ok, although the work is piled up on my desk. I had to go do some photographs today...dragging my sickly child with me. One of the places, boasted a man with a broken collar bone. He was also two doors down from someone I used to know. I felt bad for disturbing him and was in a hurry to boot for fear of being seen. Long story...and I may have been worried for nothing. However, it didn't stop the pounding in my chest and the overcoming need to get the hell out of there. I shot my pics and sped off in the snow.

My baby is sick again. I can tell, usually, by just looking at her but it is always a given when she calls me Mama. It is my cue, that she is needing me to comfort and make her feel better. I couldn't seem to get her in the clear over the weekend so I figured I needed some help. The Dr's couldn't tell what was wrong. They sent us on our way with an assumption of another virus. He said if she gets worse again, then bring her back. And so what would they test for next time that they couldn't do this time? Ugh. It frustrates me that I can't fix it, when she feels bad. So, now, she is cuddled up in my bed. At least, tonight, I will hear her when she calls Mama...
