Busy weekend but things are falling into place, its hard to think about work yet it beckons. Finished up another bowl this evening, finally getting back to a few of my crafts now that the house and stuff is almost done. Need to exchange a glass tomorrow at lunch but otherwise things are moving along right fine.
Went and got my blood work done for my physical and then had the mammogram done . . . . uggh, thats all I got to say. If the women in my family had not had breast cancer and if I had not had the scare I did years ago I would say phewy on that. . . but it is what it is and so I am getting to the age where it becomes a necessity. I was actually pleasantly surprised today that it didnt hurt more, the last one I had done years ago was OMG!! painful. . . . Both my maternal and paternal grandma’s had breast cancer, one paternal aunt and my mother. One of those things I guess that some have to deal with, just raises my awareness of it.
Dang the wind is blowing hard tonight, rattling the doors. Such a strange day, first sunny then cloudy, the rain came and went. . back for a few rays of sunshine and the clouds followed shortly. Jonny was in rare form again today. We have to get him to a meeting, just dont know if I will be able to get him to one tomorrow or not – grrr. Sometimes being the only one running gets frustrating because I cant be in a hundred places at once. I really think this will help him . . . .he doesnt have anywhere really to turn to with issues about his dad and short of taking time off and bringing him into a counselor which honestly I dont know if he needs this is the only other option I can think of. He isnt really thrilled about it but I think it is worth a shot at least. Its tough when your father is an addict and I know its hard for him because it is the one area he doesnt really feel comfortable talking to me about which is more than understandable.
Funny thing is it usually doesnt bother him but its the thought that his dad might come down here, might drive, might invade his ‘territory’ that gets him going. Part of him wants to see him and part doesnt, doesnt want him to be anywhere near where Jonny knows is safe. Not easy. . . .
