At this moment, I find myself sitting peacefully at the computer - Grayson is in bed, and Russ is at work till late. I sometimes forget what it feels like to be alone - though it would be more enjoyable if I didn't have the laundry and my homework calling my name.
We had a busy but enjoyable weekend - it began with my being bummed out about not going to LC because Grayson's fever of the last week became a cold, but it ended on a great note!
Friday night was the Sunrise Staff Show - since we were in town, Grayson and I went to it with some daycare friends - it was the first time I'd ever watched the performance versus being on the stage for it, and it was a lot of fun! I connected with many old colleagues, and felt a pang of longing for the MS. Who knows what next year will bring...
Russ worked long and hard to install a new closet system this weekend, and I was in heaven as I put away our clothes. It is amazing what some nice drawers and shelving do to such a little space! I am reminded again of what a shopper I've been, but with pride I can say that I've only bought a few things in the last 4-5 months in an effort to simplify and save. This morning, we ventured to Hastings and met up with my family for a brunch. It was fantastic, and my mom continues to amaze me! For the first time since her illness began, she reached down and helped Grayson up into her lap with no assistance! I really have missed my mom, and each day more and more of her old personality appears. We are so blessed, and I cannot wait for her to come home! Hopefully later this spring this could actually become a reality!
I am procrastinating right now in building some of my choreography for Aladdin Jr, so it is time for work. Wish me luck!?!
