Another down

I, sort of, took a break. Not in the way my picture below would suggest. Actually, sleep was elusive this weekend, as it has been. But, rather, from my thoughts. I had typed some posts, deleted them, played with a few blog templates, changed color schemes, deleted them and so it went. I took lots of pictures this weekend, most of the kids; my daughter, her friend Brandon (whom she has been friends with since diaper days) and her best friend Lindsay. They, took pictures of me (yeesh). Most of which showed off the nice dark circles under my eyes. No amount of editing in my photo programs could get rid of them, so...sharing...I am not. :P

I found out on Friday, that my adopted Mom in California is not going to be making the trip to visit. Perhaps later in the year, but not as planned. Apparently, they (my sister and mother) had known they weren't coming for a couple weeks but forgot to let me know. I guess it explains why they wouldn't return my calls. I guess. I called my Mom in California on Saturday, after speaking with my sister on Friday, and we talked for about an hour and a half. She even asked me how I was. We talked about her Dr. appointments, her current health, the weather and what my brother and sister were up to. We talked about many other things a bit more sensitive, but all in all, it was good.

There was a lot in the past couple days. A lot of conversations, words and comments that really got to me. Some good...some not. I really am not sure how to fit it into this space, or really just how to put the words, themselves, in order. Perhaps, I am just tired.

Sweet dreams.
